The Medical Poland Veterinary Preparatory Programme is a response to feedback from students and academics with regard to increasing levels of knowledge in biology, chemistry, and physics to prepare students to succeed and make the most of their veterinary programme.
The programme is designed to lead through the most relevant areas revising (and in some cases introducing) areas one needs to learn to be well prepared for the academic year and is essential for success in the first two years of the Veterinary programme. During the first years, you will face more extended parts of sciences such as biochemistry, biophysics, genetics, and microbiology.
You will receive full access to:
(1) Mastering Pearson online platform including an interactive textbook with a lot of additional resources, tutorials, etc. with
(2) a course personalised to veterinary students needs areas/chapters structured and compiled specifically for you using the criteria above
(3) Medical Poland's Tutors’ ongoing support. In order to maximise your knowledge, you need to go through as much of the course as possible (ideally the entire course designed for you).
Medical Poland's Academic Tutor will revise your results after each chapter and assign additional content if deemed necessary, based on your performance throughout the course. You also can ask them questions and ask for clarification if you need additional support.
The online preparatory programme delivered by the Medical Poland Education Team has a flexible start date (once the payment is received) and 18 months of content access. Medical Poland Academic Tutors lead the delivery and student-tutor interaction for 4 weeks in all three subjects:
Chemistry 15.08.2020 - 15.09.2020
Physics 15.08.2020 - 15.09.2020
Biology 02.09.2020 - 02.10.2020
The introduction call with the Medical Poland Education Tutors Team will take place on Saturday, 15th August.
Investment: 420 EUR (please send payment confrimation to education@medicalpoland.ie)
Access: from within 3 working days from received payment for 18 months (it means that you can pay earlier and have access to all available study materials as soon as the payment is received)

Recommendations:
Recommendation from prof. Kubiak (Dean of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, WUELS)
We hereby recommend to all our candidates from Ireland and UK the pre-course organized by Medical Poland. This pre-course is prepared by leading specialists and teachers from Polish medical universities and includes all issues which are required by our Faculty from candidates to Veterinary Medicine at Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences. Due to the differences between programs in secondary schools in Poland and other countries (especially Ireland and the UK), some of the students face challenges due to limited knowledge of basic biology, chemistry and physics. These basic subjects are essential to other preclinical and clinical subjects which are taught during veterinary medicine programme. A good basis will facilitate further studying and, thanks to a better knowledge from basic sciences, every candidate will be able to feel more self confident at the beginning of the study.
Recommendation from a current veterinary student
The Pre-Veterinary course is an amazing opportunity to prepare for the Veterinary course at the Wroclaw University of Environmental and Life Sciences in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, as students usually find these subjects the most difficult when starting their university degree programme. These are vital for one’s basic knowledge in the pre-clinical years (1st and 2nd year).
Due to the different levels of secondary education, and the differences in curricula between countries, this is a great way to become more familiar with the topics that will be covered in detail at the university. For example, extended biology, biochemistry, genetics, microbiology, and biophysics. Once the actual degree programme starts, it is difficult to catch up with the basics.
It is also, in my opinion, as an incoming 3rd-year student at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Wroclaw, extremely useful in preparing and boosting your confidence in MCQ (multiple choice question) style exams and tests. As you will be facing biophysics, biochemistry, biology, and genetics in the 1st year of your studies, you will have full access to Pearson textbooks, videos, and other materials for 18 months. As I am aware, for the first month you will also be supported by academic tutors and will be able to ask questions and receive additional tasks when needed.
Wholeheartedly recommend taking part in this course - see you at the university in October :) Sadhbh
