不少同学打算学医，因为医生这个职业不仅受人敬仰，而且待遇丰厚，到哪都吃香，不担心失业。然而，一分耕耘一份收获，没有付出，哪来回报。无论是国内还是国外，学习医学专业都是一条艰苦的道路，梦想都有，然而能真正坚持下来的并不多见。
英国大学本科
英国大学本科阶段开设医学专业，下面我们分别看下几所学校的申请要求（以A-Level课程背景为例）。
1. University of Oxford
https://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/courses/course-listing/medicine
Entrance requirements:
A*AA (excluding Critical Thinking, Thinking Skills and General Studies)
Subject requirements:
Chemistry with either Maths, Further Maths, Biology or Physics
Admissions test(s) BMAT
Written work: None
Admissions statistics:
-Interviewed: 25%
-Successful: 9%
-Intake: 159
牛津大学Medicine专业分为两类：三年制和六年制。最低入学要求为A*AA，科目必须包含化学以及数学、高等数学、生物和物理中的一科，此外还必须提交BMAT的考试成绩。
2.University of Cambridge
https://www.undergraduate.study.cam.ac.uk/courses/medicine
Course Duration: Six years - MB, BChir
Colleges: Standard Course available at all Colleges except Hughes Hall
2021 Entry
Applications per place: 8
Number accepted: 309
A Level: A*A*A
A Levels in Chemistry and one of Biology, Physics, Mathematics.
Work experience：
To develop understanding of what a career in Medicine involves and your suitability for your intended profession, you’re strongly advised (though not required) to undertake some relevant work experience, either paid or voluntary, in a health or social care organisation.
Admission assessment:
All Standard Course (A100) applicants (including applicants to mature Colleges) are required to take the Biomedical Admission Test (BMAT) at an authorised assessment centre (usually your school or college), for which you will need to be registered in advance.
剑桥大学的Medicine时长为六年，A-Level的最低要求是A*A*A，其中化学是必须的，剩余科目必须从生物、物理，数学中选择一门。工作经验：虽然非必须，但是强烈建议申请人有健康或社会保障组织相关的经历，无论是义工类还是带薪类。此外，需要参加BMAT考试。
3. Imperial College London
https://www.imperial.ac.uk/study/ug/courses/school-of-medicine/medicine/#entry-requirements
Minimum entry standards
Our minimum entry standard for 2023 entry is AAA overall, to include:
-A in Biology
-A in Chemistry
-A in a third subject
General Studies and Critical Thinking are not accepted.
Typical offer range:
As a guide, here are the typical offers made to at least 80% of A-level
applicants for 2021 entry:
Three A-level offer: A*AA (A* in Biology or Chemistry)
BMAT cut-off scores are calculated each year, as a result of ranked candidate BMAT scores versus number of expected interview sessions. As a result, the absolute BMAT cut-off changes each year. All candidates were required to score the minimum threshold in each Section 1, Section 2 and Section 3 as well as achieve or exceed the set threshold sum of scores of Sections 1 and 2.
帝国理工学院Medicine专业时长为六年，尽管最低录取要求为AAA，其中生物和化学是必修科目，但是实际情况是八成以上拿到录取的人中，生物和化学的成绩为A*。此外，同样需要BMAT考试。
不难看出，英国本科对于医学专业要求很高，不但需要强大的学科成绩，还要通过额外的考试甚至面试才能有机会录取，且大部分学校采取的是六年制的时长，充分体现了学医的难度。
美国大学本科
美国本科阶段能申请医学专业吗？答案可能会令不少同学失望，因为在美国，绝大部分医学院和法学院，都仅针对硕士及以上学位提供，即便少数大学开放给本科生，也只针对有身份的学生。曾经有位持有加拿大籍的学生咨询过申请美国医科专业本硕连读的情况，我们就此情况特意给一些学校发邮件确认，具体如下：
Boston University School of Medicine
Arts & Sciences Accelerated Program (CAS)
Seven-Year Liberal Arts/Medical Education Program (Early Decision not available)
邮件回复：
Yes, you are! (I'm a high school student with Canada citizenship. Am I eligible to apply for the Seven-Year Liberal Arts/Medical Education Program?)
Here is some general information about the Accelerated Medical Program and the Pre-Medicine program, both of which are available through the College of Arts and Sciences. Please note that medical school in the United States is a graduate level program. A student must first complete a bachelor's degree before applying to medical school in the US. If you have already completed a bachelor's degree and are looking to apply to the Boston University Graduate School of Medicine, please get in touch with that school directly to learn how to apply.
波士顿大学的项目接受，但不提供ED选项。
Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine
邮件回复：
Yes you can apply to our PPSP as a Canadian/International Applicant!
https://case.edu/medicine/education/md-programs/pre-professional-scholars-programs
Each year, 15 to 20 exceptionally well-qualified high school seniors who plan to pursue careers in medicine are offered places in the Pre-Professional
The Pre-Professional Scholars Program in Medicine requires eight years: four years of successful undergraduate study leading to the bachelor’s degree followed by four years in the University Program of the School of Medicine.
Pre-Professional Scholars in Medicine are free to choose from among all of the degree and major programs offered in the university, but must complete the courses in biochemistry, biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics/statistics, and behavioral sciences listed in the Conditions of Admission letter they received when accepted to the program.
凯斯西楚大学的PPSP没有身份限制，但是每年仅录取十几个申请人，且读完需要八年时间。
Tufts University School of Medicine
https://medicine.tufts.edu/admissions-aid/admissions-program/special-options/early-assurance
We receive between forty and fifty applications for this program each year. Of the applicants who meet the minimum eligibility requirements, a majority are invited to interview. Of those who are interviewed, approximately fifty percent are admitted to the Early Assurance Program.
The Prehealth Advisor at participating schools will email application instructions to potential applicants during their sophomore year.
邮件回复：
International students is not eligible to apply, for the Early Assurance Program.
塔夫茨大学的的医学专业（Early Assurance Program）每年招收四五十人，需要在大二时内部申请，必须有美国身份才有资格。
不难看出，美国本科阶段，确实有极个别学校开设提前招收或是本硕连读的医科专业，但是不同学校开设的项目和招生要求都不相同，相同的是招收人数都非常有限，竞争激烈程度可想而知。
那么想在美国读医科的同学们，究竟可以申请什么专业呢？在小编看来，生物、药学、公共健康、食品科学、营养学等专业都是可以考虑的方向，这些专业都会和生物、化学有很大的关联性，可为日后申硕打下坚实的基础。最后要说的是，如果想在美国读医科，最好还是要拿到身份，否则即便顺利拿到学位，就业的难度也非常大。医学看似风光，但从医的道路铺满了荆棘，务必要有一颗持之以恒的心。
