Make sure you research into all the clubs and societies and all the activities you can get involved in. Get careers, internships and work placement advice, it is all available at the uni, but it's not publicised very much, so take the initiative. In general get involved and be independent!

Barts, as part of Queen Mary is a great place to study Medicine. I've already learnt soo much. A word of advice for fellow medicine applicants is to relax during your interviews and be yourself.

Uni is a lot of work, but it is great. First year is definitely the best, so make sure you enjoy it and make the most of it. Also make sure that when you are applying, you read around the subject and get as much background knowledge on the subject as possible.

I would say for a prospective student to make sure that they know the course that they want to study and all the modules in depth. For applying, make sure you are individual in your personal statement, and make sure you explain why you want to do the course.

Uni life is good. I would say that you need to be prepared mentally to work, but most of all make sure you enjoy it. There's a balance between work and having fun, you just need to find it. Make sure you do all the work experience you need before you apply to the uni and look for placements. Also doing the Duke of Edinburgh awards looks great on your personal statement.

My uni life is absolutely great, and I love the fact that it's one of the only campus based uni's in London. Everything you need is soo close to each other. That means that you are outdoors quite a bit travelling from building to building, so in the cold weather make sure you bring a coat! When you are applying to uni, then make sure that you get help, there's plenty available out there

Uni is definitely tough, but also incredibly rewarding and a fantastic experience. I would say for you to make sure you enjoy your 1st year as much as possible as it gets tougher as the years progress.Make sure that prior to coming to uni you do as much research as possible!

Uni life is great, and a lot of fun. You get to meets soo many people from everywhere across the world. I would recommend that you mingle a lot and meet as many people from different courses as you can. People tend to stick to the people they know in their courses. Make sure you get good grades at A Level, and do as many extra curricular activities that you can to get a place at QM.

Uni is good, but really stressful in the final year.A word of advice, don't but food etc. on campus, it's really expensive. Just go to a big chain supermarket eg. Tesco/ Sainsburys. It's much cheaper.

I find uni great, but it's going soo quick! Make sure you enjoy every single minute of it, and also make the most of your time at uni and all the opportunities that uni offers and the facilities. As long as you get good A Level, and the grade you need, then you will be fine.
