We often get asked if we consider those who have retaken exams?🤔

Chemistry Higher, A-Level and Mathematics National 5 or GCSE can be re-taken in order to meet the ScotGEM entrance requirements, where relevant.

For example, Higher Chemistry at grade C could be re-taken to achieve a grade B.

Remember our entry requirements for 2026 entry have changed - we also now accept A Level or Higher Biology at a B grade or above.

Before applying to ScotGEM, applicants should have had work experience in a health situation with people who may be ill, disabled, elderly or by shadowing a doctor at work. The main aim of work experience is to gain insight into health and healthcare delivery and to allow candidates to make an informed choice before deciding to apply to study medicine.

We appreciate that it can be hard writing a personal statement that suits all medicine courses so as part of the ScotGEM admissions process, all applicants will be asked to fill out a web-based questionnaire post UCAS application. This will allow applicants to explain why they are particularly interested in or suited to ScotGEM and give detail about their medically related work experience. 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️🚑 💉
UCAS also have some great resources to help you – https://www.ucas.com/undergraduate/applying-university/how-write-ucas-undergraduate-personal-statement
