Important notes
All data reported by UK medical schools is retrospective, so future numbers are subject to change from those reported here.
Competition data reported is from the 2019-20 admissions cycle, as confirmed by MedSchoolGenie Freedom of Information (FOI) requests from this period. For more details, see our notes below on data scope.
Notes on data scope
For details of calculations and data sources, check our explanations of how to evaluate Home competition data or how to evaluate International competition data.
As explained in our notes on definitions of 'Home', UK medical schools counted EU applicants within the 'Home' category during the 2019-20 admissions cycle. When making comparisons with later data sets, keep in mind that UK medical schools after Brexit start counting EU applicants within 'International' category.
Due to ongoing impact of Covid-19 since March 2020, UK medical schools have not yet released competition data for this period. Applicants should keep in mind that coronavirus-related lockdowns and other restrictions affected the entire UK education sector, so competition ratios were most likely distorted during the 2020-21 admissions cycle. MedSchoolGenie will update here when more reliable competition data becomes available.
