It was an eventful and impactful evening that taught the step by step pathway into medicine quite clearly, and all questions I may have had bear the beginning had been answered thoughtfully and in great depth. My only qualm with the experience was the necessity for the presence of parents/guardians, though the condition was definitely needed due to the lack of professionalism some participants had exhibited within the chat.

My experience with medic mentor has been all round very positive, the summer school was incredibly useful. Having a free way to access virtual work experience is great, but I would say that some of the times the video/audio leaves something to be desired. My main issue with medic mentor is the incessant emails, it feels like every day that I get emails for new things. Which while at first is useful, there are only so many times you can be emailed about the same meetings before it is annoying. Even worse is the frequency with which emails are just advertisements, advertisements for something that I have already purchased. This would not be so bad if it was possible to select what emails you want to receive, but it is an all or nothing system (I emailed the support a while back). So either you get unending spam emails and access the programme you paid for or you don't get anything. As for the UCAT prep it felt a little repetitive but thats not really the fault of medic mentor, the question banks were also a little problematic at times but thats likely beyond their control. Everyone I have interacted with at medic mentor has been lovely and seems to truly care about the people they interact with, it seems like a waste to sour this over something as easy as a mailing list. Summer school (platinum pathway) 7/10 (price) UCAT 8.5/10 (exactly what you'd expect) Communications 4.5/10 (perfectly fine except the spam)

The bronze conference was very comprehensive and allows students to make an informed decision as to whether medicine is for them. And it's free!

Very informative! Gain valuable insights that show what to do and not to do. Taught us how to be smart and innovative, things that i have not learnt in school. Attending this conference will also allow access to an obgyn work experience. Thank you.

Lots of incredible mentors whether that be doctors, dentists or students who create a family-like community. So many opportunities to get involved in that are extremely useful for both professional development and using your experiences to help educate and support others with their journey.

I thought it was really great that they wee able to make some time to answer a lot of our questions, and be completely honest with us. I also feel like much of my stress has been relived now that I have a much better idea of what I'm doing and should be doing.
