Once you’ve checked the eligibility criteria and feel the Programme is right for you, it’s time to choose your MAP strand.

Choosing your MAP strand

There are three strands of MAP: Medicine, Dentistry and General, each with their own eligibility criteria.

1. Medicine or Dentistry strands are for applicants who have an interest in pursuing Medicine or Dentistry at university and meet the additional GCSE and A-level criteria.

2. The general strand is for applicants who have an interest in pursuing any other course at university that is not Medicine or Dentistry. This includes other healthcare courses like Optometry and Pharmacy.
