Case-Based Learning (CBL) is a tutorial-based, group learning approach where students work through real-world clinical scenarios across subjects such as cardiology, respiratory, and gastroenterology.
During each session, you’ll identify key learning outcomes and use them to guide your study, following a patient case from initial presentation through to diagnosis and management.
The goal of CBL is to help students apply theoretical knowledge to practical situations. This better prepares you for reviewing real cases during clinical placements.
Predicted grades are not considered at any stage of the selection process.
We accept re-sits at the GCSE level within a year after they were originally taken (except for English Language which can be taken at any time).
We do not accept A-level re-sits. (Welsh applicants can re-sit AS-level subjects). We only accept A-level re-sits in exceptional circumstances.
Clinal experience is not required. Experience and reflection in a caring environment can be demonstrated by reflecting on any work experience carried out (examples include care homes, helping out with younger pupils in school, helping out with clubs, etc).
