Before you persistently, stubbornly strive to enter a medical university, you need to learn more about the specifics of studying at this educational institution, as well as about the difficulties and joys of the future profession.

You need to study at a medical university longer - up to six years, and only in the full-time, full-time department. Then the graduate is trained in internship - one year, clinical residency - two years. After that, if desired, you can enroll in graduate school.

The doctor has a huge responsibility for making decisions. But on the other hand, all specialists with higher education have the same responsibility. Imagine what will happen if an ignoramus takes the place of an engineer, architect, pilot, etc. That is why they study in higher educational institutions in order to be able to predict the consequences of decisions made and be responsible for them.

Still, the child is adamant and insists on continuing his education in a medical school? Then we think what to do.

The surest, but not for all students, a pleasant and familiar way is to study as best as possible. Naturally, special attention should be paid to subjects for which the scores for passing the exam are passing. There are only three of them, so you can master it if you put in the effort, multiplied by the passionate desire to enter a medical school. The passing scores are great. For example, in a medical university named after I.I. Mechnikov, you need to have at least fifty points in the Russian language, chemistry, and biology. Otherwise, the documents will not be accepted. Even if forty-eight points. And even for paid training will not pass. This is such a strict selection. And there is nothing to be offended with and no one but yourself. For eleven years, parents and teachers persuaded to study, forced, persuaded, shamed, described what the future holds depending on academic success. Is not it? It's time to reap the "harvest", to see what the child will do with the baggage of knowledge, skills, skills that he has learned over such a long time of study. As they say, according to Senka there will be a hat.

Yes, chemistry and biology are complex subjects, but there are also pluses in choosing a medical university when passing the exam: mathematics is not a competitive subject, and therefore it is enough to successfully pass it at a basic level.

Of great importance is the meaningful purposeful study of subjects by the child at school. A clear understanding that he is studying not for his parents, but for himself, his future, to achieve his dream of becoming a doctor.

It is important to independently study chemistry and biology additionally. However, you may miss some sections. Therefore, it is better to study under the guidance of experienced teachers. Where to find such teachers who will really prepare for the successful passing of the exam, how not to be mistaken in their competence? It is most reliable to contact organizations of additional education that have a good reputation and extensive experience in preparing students for the exam. There, classes are held in accordance with the developed approved plan, which means that all the necessary topics are thoroughly worked out in the format of the upcoming exam. Moreover, you can work both in a group and individually. But in any case, parents are sure that not a single topic is left without attention.

What should I do if my child cannot attend such courses for some reason? Use the services of tutors. But not everything is so simple here either. It is best to find a teacher from a medical school, as he knows what you need to know to successfully pass the exam in biology and chemistry, as well as in order to successfully study at the university, especially the difficult first year.

At the same time, you should not miss the opportunity to participate in ongoing Olympiads at various levels. Winners and prize-winners of the final stage of the All-Russian Olympiad, members of the national teams that took part in international Olympiads, have the right to enter without entrance examinations.

The competitive score is the sum of the score for subjects and for individual achievements. Therefore, it makes sense to work on acquiring these individual achievements. For example, if you graduated from school with a gold or silver medal, you can add five and four points, respectively. The exact list of individual achievements taken into account in a particular university, and the equivalent of each in points, can be viewed on the website of the selected university in the section "Information on the procedure for accounting for individual achievements of applicants."

Each university determines which categories have special rights and benefits for admission (again, see the list of those on the website of the selected university). For example, citizens who have completed military service by conscription and provided recommendations from the commander have special rights. Who has this opportunity - do not miss it.

The target set is becoming more and more popular. However, it must be remembered that using the target direction is a big responsibility for the future student. He undertakes to study well, in no case not to leave the university, even if he is tired, hard.

When applicants receive the same scores, a higher score in subjects is taken into account in the following order: chemistry, biology, Russian language.

If you didn’t enroll in a budget education, try for a paid one. But it is very expensive. However, there is a way out: you can take out an educational loan, thanks to which you can pay for education and the expenses necessary for its successful implementation.

What to do for those who did not get the points to the cherished figure established by the university in some subject that is a passing one? With tenfold diligence and zeal to study them and retake them on the days set for this.

So, what conclusion can be drawn? It is possible to enter a medical school without blasphemy. You just need to have a great desire, willpower and determination.

Good luck! Be talented smart doctors!

So how go to medical school?

A few tips from a person who has successfully coped with this.

1. To get into medical school, you need to be passionate to want. Longing to be a doctor. You should be driven not by the desire to have a prestigious medical degree, not by the desire to follow in the footsteps of your father or mother, continuing the medical tradition of the family. You should sleep and see how you treat sick tummies, save people from death, operate with the risk of contracting hepatitis B or D, perform a medical feat as a country doctor. Perhaps you want to study thousands of surgical knots, or develop a new model of a prosthetic arm, or transplant hearts, or save human beauty after a burn disease. If anyone can talk you out of going to medical school, don't.

2. Suppose you are sleeping and see yourself as a medical student. You are attracted by the romance of a white coat, and the Hippocratic oath seems so solemn to you. Then your path is cramming. Bison on the subway, Bison at home, Bison at school. Bison with a tutor. Think, understand, analyze, solve problems, write down constants, laws and rules in special notebooks, carry them close to your heart, read with fanaticism, buy expensive textbooks, read more than you need according to the program. Study the program inside and out.

3. Go to the university you want to enter, a year or two before admission. Go there during the abitura period (and not at sea with mom and dad). Go to the admissions office, take there a list of recommended literature and teaching aids issued by the teachers of this university. Visit a bookstore or medical school shop. Listen to your heart - does this whole atmosphere touch you? Go on an excursion. Ask a student to take you to a museum on campus or to a laboratory. Talk to those who entered: with one, with another, with a third. Find out the features of admission to this particular university.

4. Prepare every day. Every day, little by little, move towards your goal. Quantity turns into quality. Get everything out of you. Pass the exam for the maximum score. Make your admission to medical school an inevitability.

Should I pay a bribe to get into medical school?

Of course you pay! Especially if mom and dad have money. If you light up, then you will be milked, carefully passing from hand to hand, like Burenka or Dawn, from one pulpit to another.

Although, which is typical, they practically did not take bribes from us. It was painfully principled that the teachers got caught. One I remember now. Her eyes were fixed, unblinking. It was impossible to write. And if you didn’t know something, then it was yours and only your problems. You had to cram without drying out, as every doctor must cram for six years!

The profession of a doctor, regardless of specialization, remains today one of the most prestigious in our country. Someone considers it romantic and noble, dreaming of saving people from a variety of diseases, and someone - just profitable. But regardless of which category of applicants you belong to, you will first need to enter a medical school and successfully complete your studies. Only then will it be possible to obtain a doctor's diploma.

In this article, we will describe in detail which entrance exams you need to take to medical school, as well as give some useful recommendations to successfully cope with all the difficulties in admission.

Competitive advantages when entering a medical university

In any medical university in Russia today there are both paid and budget departments. It is absolutely not difficult to enter the first ones, since only financial possibilities (both yours and your parents) matter to them. That is why we will not dwell on this topic for a long time, but will immediately move on to the issue of competitive advantages when entering the budget.

Let's start with the fact that the easiest way to get into a university is after a medical college. Especially if in a secondary educational institution you studied in the same specialty that you want to enter the institute.

Going to medical school right after school? The admission process will be more difficult, as the admissions committee, in addition to exam results, will consider the following achievements:

• availability of diplomas and awards for participation in various (but better specialized) olympiads and competitions;
• any success in sports competitions;
• the presence of an active life position and participation in social activities.

As we have already mentioned, all these and other achievements can be attributed to additional criteria considered upon admission. The main ones are precisely the results of the exams, which we will discuss below.

What school subjects should be given special attention

So, in order to enter a medical university, you must successfully pass the exam after graduation. What subjects are preferred for the future physician? Firstly, these are disciplines such as the Russian language and literature, which are taken by absolutely everyone, regardless of the chosen profession. Secondly, future doctors may definitely need knowledge of biology (regardless of whether you want to become a surgeon or a pediatrician), as well as chemistry.

If you dream of entering medical school literally from high school, be sure to pay special attention to the last two subjects, try to constantly go beyond the school curriculum, read additional literature. This will help you acquire enough knowledge to pass not only the Unified State Examination, but also additional exams, which may be mandatory in some universities.

In addition, today almost every educational institution has preparatory courses. If you want to enter a university the first time, achieve your goal without retaking exams for the next year, it is better to enroll in these very courses. They study exactly those topics that you may well encounter upon admission, so the chances of getting into the budget department will be much higher.

If you still failed to enter, if you had to return home "on the shield", do not immediately despair. The thing is that every year additional days are organized for everyone, on which you can try to retake the exam and score the required number of points.

Choosing a Medical School

Another issue that I would like to consider is the choice of a medical university. The most popular educational institutions of this profile include:

• State University of Medicine and Dentistry and the First Moscow State Medical University. I. M. Sechenov, located in the capital;
• State Medical Academy named after Mechnikov and Pavlov University in St. Petersburg.

Those who acted on their own, and even not from a medical dynasty, are considered almost heroes and lucky ones. However, it is not. Let's try to figure out what is needed in order to successfully enter a medical university.

How to get started in medical school

First of all, you need to clearly know what you want, and what you ultimately have to go through. The decision to become a doctor should be purely personal. Studying at a medical college or university at the insistence of parents or fashion trends does not make sense. This applies, however, to any other specialty, but studying medicine against personal convictions is unbearable. Keep in mind that you will have to study almost all your life: about ten years at the university, residency, doctoral studies, and then regular advanced training courses.

We decided that the medical future is just for you - choose the direction of your professional activity. As practice shows, most applicants dream of a career as a surgeon. Think twice... It will be many, many years before you are allowed to operate on your own. In addition, this is one of the most difficult specializations, where a doctor has a great responsibility, which means that it is impossible to study anyhow. A surgeon must either be an excellent student or not be a surgeon at all.

Decided on the specialization - find out which universities are considered flagships in the training of specialists in your profile. Visit the department you are interested in on the open day, take brochures for applicants (they are in every university). There you will find almost exhaustive information about what subjects are required for admission, as well as a brief description of the amount of knowledge that a future student should have.

Exams for admission to medical university

The main majors for physicians are chemistry and biology. Some specialties (for example, dentistry) also require passing an exam in physics. The Russian language is compulsory for all specialties. In some universities, applicants also take mathematics.

Some universities enroll students on the basis of USE results, but most conduct their own internal examinations.

A gold medal or a red diploma of secondary specialized education will be a very good help. In this case, for enrollment, it will be enough to pass only one major subject (optional) with excellent marks. The remaining exams will be credited automatically.

A plus will also be any diplomas and certificates, prizes in olympiads, certificates of completion of courses (for example, first aid).

Courses for admission to medical school

You need to prepare for admission to medical school in advance, at least two years in advance.

A lot of applicants graduate from various preparatory courses for admission to a medical university. However, attitudes towards such courses are ambiguous. If the financial situation allows, then it would be better to hire a tutor. So you get more knowledge, pull up exactly the material where there are gaps in knowledge. In addition, tutors are often also teachers in medical educational institutions and know this “kitchen” thoroughly.

However, even if the courses turned out to be too expensive, you should not despair. Transfer to a school with an in-depth study of biology and chemistry. Or talk to the teachers at your school. They will surely advise you on good literature for self-study. Entering a medical school, preparing yourself, is quite real!

Getting into medical school or college

Some students prefer to get a specialized secondary medical education, hoping then to enter a higher educational institution without any problems. This option is possible, but not entirely justified. College graduates have the same rights and grounds for admission as regular school students. Of course, in college you will get some amount of knowledge, you will be able to understand whether a medical career is really for you.
