Hi, I’m Chidinma, a UK medical student and the creator behind @medichidi on TikTok.

I created The UK Medicine Roadmap because applying to medicine can feel overwhelming, confusing and honestly unfair if you don’t know how the system works. Between UCAT, GCSEs, predicted grades, personal statements, interviews, teaching styles and choosing your 4 UCAS options, there is a lot applicants are expected to figure out alone.

This guide is designed to make the process clearer, more strategic and less stressful. My aim is to help aspiring medical students understand what to look for, avoid common application mistakes, and apply with more confidence.

Think of this as the resource I wish more students had before applying: practical, honest and focused on helping you make smarter decisions.
