Your awesome Ollie! Your doing us service out here. It's way easier to watch a well edited video than read through boring webpages and pdfs.

very helpful, particularly the Academic Foundation Programme section to the end, which is the area I've been struggling to get easy to understand info. on.

Thanks for this video, never knew about the Foundation Priority Program!!

Your content is actually amazing Ollie! Good work.

Very thankful for this video! I'm a medic at Newcastle and the uni really hasn't explained this to us. Just to clarify, you don't need to interview for normal foundation posts? Thanks Ollie!

No problem Ben, and that's right - no interviews for normal Foundation. It would just be way too many people

Wonderful stuff ollie , very inspiring

Hiya, Ollie! Thanks a lot for such a detailed video about junior doctor's paths. It tackled everything I was unsure about. I have a question though...Is there any possibility to integrate to F1&2 or other foundation programmes as a Non-Uk student (graduate) post-medschool in my home country? If so, how is it different and how can one prepare for it? Thanks a lot. :)

Great video, thanks for summarizing the information

Very welcome Chloe, hope it's useful!

Really interesting I really enjoy your videos

Thank you!

interesting on the afp!

Wow , these videos are so great! Thanks Ollie ! Honestly so grateful for them! Regarding this video, I was wondering about the Medical Licensing Assessment for graduates after 2024-25, and where that comes into all of this? Will it replace the current system of assessment at the end of medical school ? Thanks again! [edited] Oh I now notice this has been answered in a comment below !

Yeah no worries, I'm afraid we simply don't know! My gut feeling would be to say that it would have some role to play potentially like the USMLE in the states, but the word from above isn't out yet.

Hello Dr. Oliver! Thank you for such a detailed video. Does the decile system apply for IMGs as well?

Super interesting and informative! Thank you so much for this video. Are the AFP and the FPP available for students from abroad who wish to come to the UK after their graduation?

I think so! I can't imagine any reason why they wouldn't be - can always email the academic schools to find out

Hi, I have just discovered your youtube channel. I have a questions about the psychiatry foundation program. After completing the foundation program can we apply to other speacilities?

Yes absolutely - all forms of the Foundation programme give the same certificate of completion. It has no effect on which specialties you can apply for, they're all the same.

Thanks, very well explained. But what about IMGs when they want to enter the FP? What will the assessment be based on?

You didn't mention the MLA. What role will it play in Junior doctor placements?

I don't believe anyone knows as yet unfortunately. This video will only really be relevant for the next couple of years, will have to update when guidelines change

Hi I'm thinking about doing thinking about doing the graduate med school next year but do you have to do your Foundation years in the UK or can you do it abroad?

@OllieBurtonMed

As far as I'm aware it has to be done in the UK because that completes your medical registration with the GMC - once you've completed F2 you can go and work abroad is my understanding.

Did the point system for EPM change because now the extra degrees don’t help? Great cideo

Yes it has since changed. Extra degrees and publications no longer count.
