UCL Qs: Course & Med School
Why UCL? 1. Integrated MBBS Curriculum - ANS - There are several reasons I want to study at UCL:

- Exposure to clinical practice from first year.

- This early patient contact really attracted me:

- Can refine communication skills from an early stage

- Empathise with patients

- Bring medicine to life



- When I was researching the course, I was very excited to hear that the curriculum integrates mental
health across the entire MBBS programme as part of the 'vertical' CPP (Clinical and Professional Practice)
modules.

- Mental health is an issue that hits close to home for me, so I love that UCL is training doctors to
champion mental health. I'd like to be a part of that.



Open day:

- Senior members of faculty are very responsive to students and student feedback. Staff listen!



Why UCL? 2. Cadaveric dissection offered in anatomy - ANS - A couple of years ago, I attended a
Introduction to Medicine day in which I had the opportunity to dissect a pig's head and respiratory
system.

- The feeling of holding the brain of another living thing was extraordinary and unforgettable.

- Dissection offered at UCL would allow me once again to directly experience that engagement and
fascination with the human body - I think it would be a highlight of my time at medical school.



Why UCL? 3. London & Diversity - ANS - It really appeals to me that UCL campuses are situated across
Central London.

, - The city has always been my home - and I love it's unpredictability and buzz.



- As a person of colour myself, I like that UCL College one of the most diverse universities, a place of
study for people of many cultures and nationalities.

- At UCL, being surrounded by people with such different life experiences and perspectives will enrich
my own life experience - helping me to learn and grow.

- UCL India Society

- Bollywood Club Nights 'Dhamaal'

- Provide innovative ideas to promote the diversity of Indian culture to the UCL community.



- Overall, I think that UCL's medical school provides an amazing setting for me to study Medicine for the
next 5 years, and I can really see myself thriving there.



Why UCL? 4. Spanish SSC - ANS - I enjoyed learning the language, and appreciating Spanish culture at
GCSE.

- I found it incredible that even my basic foundations in Spanish would enable me to communicate and
connect with Spanish-speaking locals when I visited Cuba. Long-term pen-pals.

- Foreign language study to develop my communication skills, receptive skills (listening and reading
skills) and memory.

- Relate to a patient's sociocultural background.



- Allows students to tailor what they learn to their individual needs and interests.

- Engage in a more meaningful way in an area of practice that you have enjoyed, or allow you to further
develop skills or understanding.

- Develop essay-writing, team-working, researching.



How has UCL contributed to modern medicine?: COVID: Breathing aid - ANS - UCL engineers and medics
developed a CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) breathing aid now used in more than 60
hospitals across the UK.
