    Whats up guys! My name is Kenji and I am currently a medical student at King's College London after graduating from the University of Birmingham with a Bachelor's degree in Medical Science (BMedSci). In this video, I talk about the things that I wish I knew before starting medical school in the UK.
    If you enjoyed the video, please give it a like and a comment so I know to make some more! Also please show support by sharing it with a friend who's also interested in Medicine :)
    Thank you so much!

    Thank you so much for this😭😭,was dreading medical school because it's like the only thing you hear about it , is the fact that it's hard and you don't have life.l actually thot it's the most suffocating , boring thing to do.almost changed my career path because of such comments.

    Hi so I’m in BSN program but my advisors and people I talk to r saying I won’t get into med school. however all the pre reqs expect for physics are in this program and I’ll be learning and working on the med field. So why is it people are being so negative towards nursing majors going into medical school then stem majors whose classes don’t revolve around workin with patients being at a hospital unless they do volunteer or clinic work?

    • @DoctorKenji
      @DoctorKenji  3 роки тому +1

      As long as you need! The med schools you apply to may ask for what you were doing during your time out so its usually good to keep active with volunteering or medical experience

    • @DoctorKenji
      @DoctorKenji  3 роки тому +1

      Sorry I just reread your question - after you finish medical school you have 2 years to finish you F1 year as a doctor. You need to complete F1 in that time to get full registration to the GMC in the UK. After your F1, I don't think there's a time limit to how much time off you can take
