Medfully Appreciation! <3
Medfully was the perfect tool when I was preparing for the all-dreaded interviews! All the knowledge, interview questions and mock interviews are included so you don’t have to worry about missing out on anything important whilst preparing.
What I enjoyed the most was the concise, straightforward and easy-to-read nature of the information. Typically, a lot of other platforms and resources are quite difficult to engage with since their information can be quite jargon-ish and complex to read (especially when you’re a student coming home after a long day of school 😫)- but with Medfully I never had this problem! The quality of the information is top-notch and is written in a way that really makes you excited to learn. I found the interactive flashcard feature to be the most effective since it gets you to reflect and jot down your own thoughts whilst learning. During my interview prep, I could also easily ask my sister or friends to test me- no need for an expensive interview prep tutor!
I personally used the mock interview feature quite heavily which really helped me to critique how I looked and came across as a person on a screen. At the time, I also liked reading comments on the discord server and would love to scroll through Medfully’s weekly posts on Instagram to keep my knowledge fresh and up-to-date.
Since I last used Medfully, they have also continued to add more content to their platform and act on the feedback that users have given- which I really appreciate! The platform is even more user friendly to navigate now since you can track your progress and see all the interview questions / topics at a glance. They have also added the all-important case studies which I think will be really beneficial for future Medfully users.
I most definitely believe that Medfully is what helped me receive my offer- especially since one offer is all you need to do medicine! As a student and prospective medical applicant, this was the truly the best interview resource I invested in and, even looking back on my interview journey, I don’t regret how I chose to prepare for my interviews.
With medicine being such a competitive and stressful course to apply for, it goes without saying that students from public schools or disadvantaged backgrounds are disproportionately affected in comparison to their wealthier counterparts. With there being so many hurdles too with the application process- from finding work experience, to achieving A/A*s at A-level, to the UCAT/BMAT and finally succeeding at interviews- I strongly believe that the financial aspect should not be another barrier for those considering to do medicine. Other interview prep companies charging students hundreds of pounds for an interview course, or £70-80 for just one mock interview is just appalling and should not be the case.
Thus, I can confidently say that Medfully is really accessible and worth the investment for any student who is worried about the financial aspect. I cannot praise and thank Medfully enough for what they do! <3
