Medical
work
experience
is
a
requirement
for
applying
to
medical
schools
in
the
UK.
Depending
on
which
universities
you
are
planning
on
applying
to,
their
requirements
in
terms
of
length
and
type
of
work
experience
may
differ.
However,
most
universities
do
not
set
a
minimum
number
of
hours
or
days
for
which
work
experience
needs
to
be
undertaken,
nor
do
they
specify
the
type
of
work
experience.
There
are
some
guidelines
that
universities
tend
to
agree
medical
work
experience
needs
to
meet
(see
"What
does
good
work
experience
look
like?"
on
page
22
for
more
information).
"I’d
highly
recommend
to
anyone
who
is
even
considering
medicine
to
undertake
some
medical
work
experience
as
it
could
completely
change
your
mind
and
will
help
you
make
an
informed
decision."
Medical
schools
also
tend
to
require
that
the
relevant
work
experience
is
recent,
which
is
outlined
as
having
been
done
in
the
last
two
years
at
the
time
of
application.
Due
to
age
restrictions
to
be
able
to
undertake
medical
work
experience
–
most
require
individuals
to
be
16
or
older
–
this
is
not
a
requirement
that
people
tend
to
struggle
to
meet.
However,
it
is
worth
keeping
in
mind
if
applying
after
gap
years,
previous
degrees
or
later
on
in
life.
Medical
work
experience
allows
individuals
considering
medicine
to
experience
the
day-to-day
life
of
healthcare,
to
understand
the
expectations
of
those
working
in
medicine
and
to
decide
whether
this
is
the
right
path
for
you.
20
However,
this
is
just
a
guideline,
and
as
previously
mentioned
(see
"Where
should
I
do
my
work
experience?"
on
page
16),
some
individuals
may
be
able
to
secure
placements
more
easily
due
to
a
variety
of
reasons.
Universities
are
very
aware
of
this
discrepancy,
and
value
individuals’
initiative
in
doing
their
best
to
gain
experience
and
insight
to
develop
them
as
a
person
and
future
medical
student,
while
informing
themselves
to
be
able
to
make
their
own
educated
decision.
"I
was
quite
stressed
about
finding
my
medical
work
experience
but
I
made
sure
that
I
had
a
range
of
places
to
do
my
work
experience
at
as
I
wanted
to
boost
my
personal
statement
as
much
as
possible.
This
included
my
local
hospital,
my
local
opticians,
my
local
vets,
my
local
GP
and
a
week’s
worth
of
work
experience
in
a
care
home."
It
is
also
worth
noting
that
there
is
not
much
value
in
repeating
medical
work
experience
placements.
As
a
student
still
at
school,
what
you
are
capable
of
doing
and
legally
allowed
to
do
on
a
medical
work
placement
is
limited.
So,
it
is
in
your
best
interest
to
pursue
different
types
of
work
experience
placements
in
different
departments
with
different
teams
so
that
you
can
make
the
most
of
your
time
on
medical
work
experience
–
within
your
limitations.
If
you
are
keen
on
a
longer
work
experience,
a
voluntary
caring
role
working
with
individuals
that
are
disabled
or
disadvantaged
or
elderly
would
be
the
most
beneficial
for
you,
and
for
those
that
you
are
supporting.
25
The
general
principles
of
what
comprises
good
work
experience
is
outlined
in
"What
does
good
work
experience
look
like?"
on
page
22.
The
following
are
actions
that
you
can
make
sure
to
keep
in
the
forefront
of
your
mind
during
your
work
experience
to
do
it
‘right’.
Try
and
secure
a
variety
of
work
experience
opportunities.
This
may
include
hospitals,
GP
practices,
volunteering,
working
with
disabilities,
working
with
people
that
are
disadvantaged
and
many
more.
Try
to
get
as
many
placements
as
you
can
in
different
departments
and
specialties
(as
long
as
you
have
the
time
to
do
so
and
you
making
too
many
sacrifices
to
your
school
work).
Focus
on
specialties
or
areas
you
are
interested
in
if
you
can.
But
don’t
limit
yourself
to
only
your
current
interests,
as
they
will
most
likely
change!
Make
the
most
of
contacts
that
you
have
if
they
can
help
you
to
secure
work
experience
opportunities
or
if
they
can
suggest
people
to
contact
they
may
be
able
to
help
you
to
secure
work
experience.
