M.B.B.S from King's College London [KCL], London - Fees & Admission Details 2024

Course Curriculum:

The curriculum was very diverse and covered a wide range of topics within my chosen field of neuroscience. Each topic was taught by professors who had several years of research and training in that particular topic and hence they were always prepared to answer any questions the students had. We were also given training on other aspects of research such as how to write applications for grants and how to use our knowledge to come up with topics to research. Towards the end, students were also allowed to select an elective from a list of different specializations which was very useful as we could learn exactly what we were interested in. Overall, I was very happy with the broad range of topics that I was exposed to in my master's.

Fees:

27,000GBP (Standard international student fee).

Course Curriculum:

The course is divided into two segments. The first year is known as common year 1. In this year every student studies the same modules (Biochemistry, pharmacology, anatomy, neuroscience, chemistry, genetics etc) In the following year and final year you are able to choose very specific modules which tailor towards your personal interests. My theme this year is Neuropharmacology. The modules I am studying include Drugs and Disease, Neuroscience, psychology, Neuroscience and the mind, Medical Microbiology, Physiology and Pharmacology of the nervous system and drug discovery and development. The modules include a mix of lectures, practicals, tutorials and seminars. During second year students are also provided an opportunity to study a year abroad such as UCLA and there is also an opportunity for a placement year in industry. The faculty provides great guidance towards achieving these opportunities.

Fees:

£9250/- for UK residents

Course Curriculum:

Have lots of friends at other medical schools and I do think King's has the best course in terms of the varied nature of teaching we get, the quality, and the placement sites and opportunities. Strong emphasis on widening participation, diversity and culture which I think is essential.

More integrated curriculum with placement earlier on, rather than 3 years of pure science which I would not have enjoyed. London life seemed fun and exciting.

Course Curriculum:

The course curriculum and academics at KCL are very valuable and provides a good foundation to practice as a doctor in the future. There is plenty of theoretical knowledge and clinical practice opportunities to back it up. We are given placements in hospitals to gain experience in the different departments including mental health, general medicine and various specialities. Through lectures, tutorials and hospital teaching sessions, the essentials of medicine and skills needed to be a capable doctor are taught.

I chose King's College London for various reasons - its global and national ranking for Medicine at the time of application, reputation of the school, quality of education as well as benefit on studying in a city like London

Course Curriculum:

The course seemed relevant and up to date with the topics within organisational psychology. Some of the guest lecturers were pioneers in their field and it was such a pleasure to be able to learn from them. There was a lack of industry exposure in terms of an internship within organisational psychology, I found it to be more research oriented as compared to the business oriented.

King's was one of the dream colleges and the uni and programme is quite highly ranked in QS/ US news ratings. London seemed like the perfect city to explore and live in as a student.

Course Curriculum:

I don't have a course syllabus. I am a PhD student so it is more about how motivated you can be and what kind of an environment you get.

I did not choose the university. I chose the project and the professor(s). I was okay to be in any university which has a good global ranking and was based in UK or USA or New Zealand. I was open to applying for any university providing me with a funded opportunity to work on my interests under supervisors who have a good h-index.

Course Curriculum:

The course is extremely interesting and the college offers Internships in the course.

Fees:

19,000 per annum.

Course Curriculum:

Very relevant. Teaching is flexible and materials can be accessed online as well. Practical exposure starts from the 2nd year itself which is much earlier than other universities. We also have the opportunity to intercalate and complete a research project to get a BSc degree in addition to MBBS.

Fees:

38,850 pounds

Course Curriculum:

Lots of heavy reading but the course is generally interesting. Looking forward to having more freedom in years to come when I can specialise. Could be less historically based and more focussed on up to date or modern ideals, less focussed on theory.

Name and status of the university for the interest of future employment, course applied to me and my interests personally and especially in further years. Balance of coursework and exams works in my favour.

Course Curriculum:

I fond it slightly disorganised. I do not enjoy that I do not get to choose any of my first-year modules. I find the next year's class options more interesting. Additionally, I think the course is not very intellectually stimulating.

Fees:

The fees for international students are twenty-three thousand pounds. The fees for home students are nine thousand pounds. You pay the fees in two instalments. You also pay a deposit before the start of your course.
