Which is the best University to study medicine? Is it Imperial College?

I would prefer not go into detail but I got 11 As in my GCSEs and 3 As in my AS levels.

Which is the best University to study medicine? Is it Imperial College?
Imperial college is on the top 20 best universities in the world. I am currently a student on Imperial College, and as a matter of fact I am doing my masters project in the medicine building. I do recommend Imperial College.





If you fancy a 1 to 1 tour in Imperial College and exclusive access to the medicine department to see the labs and facilities, please do let me know. I am more than happy to show you around.

Good luck with your A-levels
Reply:Birmingham has an excellent medical school
Reply:The Guardian actually rate UCL as top for Medicine, Imperial is third. The Times has Cambridge at the top, Imperial is third again.





These rankings don't really mean too much though, Imperial is definitely a superb choice if you want to study medicine, and a degree from there will definitely be very highly regarded.





The most important factor is probably to choose a course that appeals to you, based on the options available and the methodology used - a friend of mine who's doing medicine at Imperial said that it was very hands on right from the start, which suited her but might not be good for everyone.





With those results you're clearly in with a shot of getting into the top medical schools in the country, so just focus on finding the one that's right for you. If you think that's Imperial then go for it, it's a great place to be!





Good luck.
Reply:Birmingham seems to be one of the best, but there is also UCL and I think Newcastle has a fairly good medical school too,
Reply:It really doesnt matter - by the time you finish your course the ratings will all have changed. They are constantly changing the course content so the quality of the curriculae changes too. I went to Sheffield when it was rated one of the top 2 med schools in the uk - when I graduated 6 years later it wasnt nearly so well thought of. Just pick a place you like where you think you'll have fun. Good luck!





And by the way, don't sound quite so cocky about your grades - people with straight A's still get turned away if they don't interview well - I should know, I interviewed candidates for med school myself.
