Kaviya

Hello, I am Kaviya a 4th-year medical student from Aston University. I hope to be of as much help as I can since I have first-hand experience just a few years ago. I think I will be able to help you out with the essential information you will need before the interview because, during my application, I know what worked well and what did not. I also remember being overwhelmed with advice and pointers on my personal statement but I feel like, after the whole process, I know what was most helpful practically in the few minutes you get to engage with the examiner and make an impression during interviews. Most students have all the knowledge they need because it wouldn’t be possible to make it this far without that but, to be able to present it in the best possible way, in a time-controlled and stressful environment is a skill that comes with practice and effort. With regards to IELTS and UCAT there are a lot of resources on the internet but finding what is the best resource for you is very important. The constant practice along with the right guidance made me achieve my goal.
I did GCSE and then switched to IB where I took biology chemistry HL and got a 7/7 and 6/7 in each. I took English as my SL and got a 7/7. My GCSE scores were exceptionally good due to which I was able to switch to IB and cope with the new curriculum and join medical school. I have a younger brother who did the same as me and I often help him out which keeps me in check with the curriculum. I know how challenging each of the curriculums was and having experienced both I feel that I have the qualifications to help out. Join me if you think it’s the right fit for you and I will try to be of utmost help.
