We offer comprehensive UCAT support as part of our Ultimate Platinum Pathway, ensuring students have the tools and guidance they need to excel in this crucial exam. Our UCAT support package includes a UCAT Question Bank, a dedicated Study Group, Mock Exams, and unlimited UCAT tutoring for a period of 6 weeks between July and September (and students can choose which 6 weeks they would like to attend).
The virtual Study Group is a valuable resource, with sessions held on Zoom every day from Monday to Friday. These sessions take place at 10am UK GMT and provide one hour of group teaching, allowing students to learn and discuss UCAT strategies and techniques. In addition, students have access to unlimited 1-2-1 tutoring during this period between 11am-6pm UKGMT, enabling them to receive personalised guidance and support for any challenging areas of UCAT during their revision period.
To ensure students receive the necessary assistance, we track their scores and identify those who may be struggling. Our team is committed to providing tailored help and support to students who require it. Moreover, we conduct two mock exams each week, replicating the timed exam conditions. This allows students to practice thinking under pressure and become familiar with the exam setting, enhancing their performance on the actual UCAT exam day. With our comprehensive UCAT support, students can feel confident and well-prepared as they tackle this critical exam.
The 5-day summer school residential of the Ultimate Medical Application Platinum Pathway offers an unparalleled opportunity for students to excel in their medical school application process. Whether chosen as a virtual experience or an in-person residential, this intensive segment provides comprehensive support and guidance. During these 5 days, students work closely with mentors through personalised 1-2-1 tutoring sessions, ensuring their medical personal statements reach an exceptional standard within just 2-3 days. Through unlimited personal statement revisions, students refine their statements to a level that is highly competitive and likely to be accepted by any medical school.
In addition to perfecting their personal statements, students at the summer school residential embark on valuable medical school interview preparation, granting them a substantial head start. While other students are still grappling with writing their personal statements, Medic Mentor students have already completed theirs and begun practicing for their medical school interviews. This early engagement and practice in the summer give them a significant advantage, allowing them to enter the interview process with a higher level of confidence and proficiency. By investing their time in the summer residential and the entire Ultimate Platinum Pathway, students set themselves apart from their peers, demonstrating their dedication and readiness for the rigorous medical school application journey.
Medic Mentor offers students the flexibility to choose from three distinct in-person locations for the summer school residential of the Ultimate Platinum Pathway. In Scotland, the summer school takes place at the esteemed Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh, providing students with a picturesque setting and a vibrant academic environment. In London, students have the opportunity to attend the residential at the University of Greenwich, immersing themselves in the bustling capital city and accessing world-class facilities including the UK’s leading state-of-the-art medical simulation centre. The different locations ensure that students can select a venue that suits their preferences, while still benefiting from the same exceptional level of mentorship, resources, and guidance.
The residential component of the Ultimate Platinum Pathway is best attended during your ‘application summer’. This is the summer holiday that takes place before your penultimate year of secondary school. It is also the summer before you submit your UCAS application in October. So if you are currently in year 12/S5-6/Northern Irish 13 then you should be looking to secure a place this summer. If you are in a younger year group, you can enrol onto our Ultimate Med Application Platinum Pathway to start your mentoring now and get a head start. You would then join us for the residential component in your application summer, having received even longer mentoring support to enhance your knowledge, confidence and abilities!

For students who prefer the flexibility of attending from their own location or face travel and visa constraints, Medic Mentor offers a brilliant virtual alternative. The personal statement tutoring component and mock interview preparation are conducted with exceptional effectiveness online. Remarkably, we have observed no difference in the success rates between virtual and in-person summer residentials. This virtual option is particularly beneficial for international students who may encounter challenges attending in-person, as well as students who simply prefer the convenience of a virtual platform. It is essential to ensure a reliable internet connection to fully participate in the programme, which operates on UK GMT. Despite the virtual setting, students receive the same level of contact time with their mentors as their in-person counterparts. Additionally, the virtual summer school provides an opportunity for students to network with peers from around the world, fostering a collaborative and engaging learning environment.
