Medicine tutors in Prescot typically charge £20/h per hour.

Pricing can change based on:

• The student's level (pre-med, medical school entry, or degree-level support)
• The expertise of the tutor (medical students, junior doctors, or practising physicians)
• The session format (online via video call, in person at home, or at the tutor's location)
• How often you meet (weekly sessions, intensive courses, or one-off consultations)

Some tutors provide a free first lesson so you can assess their teaching style before committing.

Online tutoring can also lower costs while maintaining high-quality, flexible support.

A-level Chemistry is the one subject almost all medical schools demand.

In addition to Chemistry, medical schools expect:

• A-level Biology: Required by most schools, as it covers anatomy, physiology and cell biology.
• Additional STEM subject: Physics or Mathematics strengthens your application and develops analytical thinking.

Expect to need top grades, usually AAA with an A* in at least one science.

Your A-level grades work together with your UCAT or BMAT score to determine your application strength.

Entry criteria vary slightly, so always verify with your chosen medical schools.
