If you were not offered a place to study Medicine, what would you do?

Saying that you would re apply next year and in the meantime volunteer in a related field or try and get a job shows that you are committed Stressing that you would remain committed to the pathway despite a major setback and explaining why shows that you are dedicated to the profession Show that you can turn a hurdle into a positive and demonstrate how you would make the most of the time off. For example, volunteering in a care home, teaching or taking part in a medical programme such as gap medics.
