Super helpful!! I wasn't sure on how to answer ethics questions properly and include the 4 pillars but I have a much clearer view on how to go about these types of questions

Really great videos, helping a lot in MMI preperation. Just wondering, but why do you overlay music throughout the video? Might just be me but I find it kind of distracting/harder to listen to what you're saying. However think the video dynamic with you both works really well, thanks for the good content, keep it up :))

I would attempt to resuscitate mainly because there's no current DNAR form in place and me just watching her die a coroner would see as an act of omission and remind me i have a duty of care to the patient. Not only that but its kind of my word against hers at that point they would look for documentation which isnt there. Also considering capacity of the patient to make that decision. Regardless of the trauma caused by cpr and whether it would be kinder to let her die there's no dnar form in place as of yet therefore i would have to attempt to resuscitate and if resuscitation fails at least when it is investigated i could say i did attempt to preserve the life of my patient

this was really helpful thanks!

Hi, @Kenji Tomita the videos are great, really helpful and a hell of informative. But my question is are we suppose to know medical procedures like you mentioned the ABC rule for the CPR process its just kind of intimating that's why or do you only focus on medical ethics and the ABC rule is an extra piece of information that is not really required for the interview. Thank You and I will be looking forward to your reply!

@@itskookie6790 Once you do a degree such as in Biomedical Science and you want to then apply for medicine, there are 3 main routes- 1) medicine with a foundation year (6 years), 2) standard undergrad entry (5 years) and 3) graduate entry (4 years). So if Kenji is on the 5 year course it means he applied and was successful for undergrad entry, not grad :) Only some uni's offer graduate entry and they tend to me much smaller courses and so a lot more competitive!

Hey Kenji, recently found your channel. I am interested in going into medicine but I did the UCAT in Australia and didn't do too well on it. Hoping to get into biomed as I've just finished year 12 and I know that you did biomed. How did you transition from biomed to medicine? Did you have to do the ucat again? What was the application process? I know you're not from Australia but I'm assuming that the process will be the same, if not similar. Looking forward to your response. Thank you!

Hi S Bitalac, I am obviously not Kenji but being from Australia I feel like I can give you a good answer to your question. Firstly, I’m sorry to hear about your UCAT but just know that it is a very difficult test to take and you are competing against some of the best students in the country so try not to feel down about not performing as well as you hoped. The good news is that there are many pathways for you to take to get into medicine. Firstly, there are the undergraduate pathways (the pathways you can use if you are a school leaver), to my knowledge there are three undergraduate pathways for medicine in Australia. They are Monash Medicine in Victoria, Bond University in Queensland (this is VERY expensive as Bond is a private University so the government does not subsidies your fees) or Flinders University in South Australia but given how late it is in the year I’m not sure you could apply to anything else at this stage. If you would like to get in using the undergraduate pathway, you could take a gap year next year, resit the UCAT and hopefully perform better. During the year, you could try and get a job at a hospital/clinic/any other medically related area and work there for a year to gain experience. It is important if you decide to take a gap year that you do not commence tertiary studies elsewhere as this will disqualify you from using the school leaver entry pathways. The other pathway into medicine is through graduate entry. This is where you complete an undergraduate degree i.e. Biomedicine/Science and then do a graduate medical degree. It is important to note that you will not have a guaranteed entry from your undergraduate degree into your graduate degree and will have to take another test called the GAMSAT which is combined with your Weighted Average Mark (WAM) from your undergraduate degree to determine if you are eligible for an interview (similar to how your ATAR and UCAT score decide if you are eligible for an interview). Additionally, some universities will not accept students from undergraduate degrees completed at different unis into their own graduate medical program so be careful about that. In terms of the transition from Biomed to Med, I cannot answer this with my own personal experience (maybe Kenji can help here) but I have friends who have done this that say the transition can be difficult but your initial degree gives you foundational knowledge which can be built on in your medicine degree however getting into the medicine degree is very difficult and highly competitive. As I said above, the application process is usually your average marks at uni combined with a standardised test score to determine interview eligibility and then an interview to determine if you will be accepted. I hope this helps you in some way, if you have more questions you can try contacting the admission offices at the Universities you plan on attending and they can help you with pathways to get into your dream course. Congratulations on finishing your very stressful Year 12 and I wish you all the best for your studies!

Hey! So I applied for Medicine in the final year of my Biomed degree. At the uni I was at (birmingham) they offered guaranteed interviews onto the graduate programme, which I got but was unfortunately rejected from. I had to sit the UCAT again. I applied to undergraduate programmes and managed to get onto the King's 5 year programme. I have a few videos on this if you'd like more information on that!
