We speak to Professor Marcus Drake who is a Urologist by background - so a surgeon who works on the urinary tract - and he is an admissions tutor at Bristol Medical School where he is also the head of year 5.

We had a great chat and if Professor Drake doesn’t leave you inspired to be a doctor I don’t know who will! We spoke about what makes Bristol medical school unique, their selection process which interestingly doesn’t take your personal statement into consideration, and how they promote widening participation in medicine. We also spoke about what his career looks like and at the end of the conversation Professor Drake and I end up chatting about some really interesting stuff when it comes to medical school interviews.
