Cambridge University Medical School is the medical school of the University of Cambridge in England.
[edit] The Clinical School
The majority of medical training in Cambridge takes place at the School of Clinical Medicine located on the Addenbrooke's Hospital site. The Clinical School was established in 1976 when construction of the new Addenbrooke's building was underway. The opening of the Clinical School meant the beginning of a completely new medical course at Cambridge University.
[edit] Entry Requirements
In a similar fashion to other course's entry requirements at Cambridge University, the standard offer of a place at the medical school requires an AAA grade to be achieved at A level. Passes at A, B or C in Double Award Science and Mathematics are the only GCSE requirements stated.
