About Medschools Online

We are a free online information resource for people who are considering applying to study medicine in the UK.

This site was set up in the summer of 2005 by two graduate medical students to help new applicants through the process of applying to medical school. We are now working as junior doctors and update the site in our spare time. The site is entirely non-commercial and is self funded.

Having been through the process ourselves, we appreciate how hard it can be to know where to start, to find out whether you have the right qualifications and enough work experience or even whether medicine is really right for you.

We hope that this site will make the whole process that little bit easier by providing accurate up to date information and providing links to other useful resources.

If you have any comments or questions about this website, or would like to help out, we would like to hear from you.

For general enquiries and for advice about applying to medical school, please use our forum. We are not experts on applications and it's a good idea to ask such questions to a wider audience. We will also do our best to answer any forum posts we can.

For other enquiries, please contact:

We look forward to hearing from you!

Dr Jeremy Durston and Dr Hannah Brotherstone, creators of Medschools Online.
