It’s no secret that one of the toughest courses in the world to get into is medicine. Now, more than ever, there’s fierce competition for entry at medical schools.

If you find yourself without a place in a medical course at the end of the year, don’t give up just yet. Some universities still have spring intakes in February and March, and they’ve already started accepting applications.

Which medical schools in Europe have 2024 February intakes?
