Course overview

At St George’s we believe that the knowledge, understanding and skills necessary for the practice of medicine are best acquired through multidisciplinary teaching based on the systems of the body.

St George’s specialise in the health sciences and are the only institution in London to provide healthcare education all on one site. Our MBBS 5 year course students:

• share learning with students of other healthcare professions;
• enjoy an integrated course that includes clinical experience from Year One;
• have a choice of Student Selected Components (SSCs) that allows them to study areas of interest in greater depth;
• gain clinical experience at St George’s Hospital and a broad range of primary care, community and district general hospitals.

As part of the application you must have work or voluntary experience in a medical or health-related field and be able to demonstrate a broad awareness of the scope of medicine. If you are shortlisted by St George’s you will be invited to an interview. This will be an Multiple Mini Interview (MMI); a series of short interviews and activities. Read more about these interviews.
