The UK remains a top destination for higher education, with many Greek students choosing it to study Medicine and Law. Home to world-renowned universities, the UK offers excellent career prospects for graduates, along with a multicultural academic environment that promotes both personal and intellectual growth. However, admission to competitive programs requires more than just strong grades. Applicants for Medicine or Dentistry must take the UCAT exam, while those applying for Law are often required to sit the LNAT exam.
Medicine in the UK
Students aiming to study Medicine or Dentistry in the UK are required to take the UCAT. Unlike the Greek Panhellenic exams, the UCAT focuses on cognitive abilities and personal attributes essential for healthcare professions, rather than subject knowledge in Biology, Chemistry, or Physics. It is taken only once a year, typically before the student begins their final year of high school.
A few top medical schools that require the UCAT include Cardiff University, Queen Mary University of London, University of Birmingham, University of Cambridge and University of Manchester, while tuition fees can be quite high and vary significantly from one university to another.

Law in the UK
More and more students are now considering studying at the best Law universities in Europe. Some of the best Law Schools in the UK require the LNAT exam. This aptitude test assesses the skills students need to succeed in demanding Law programs and it is taken once a year, usually during the student’s final year of high school.
Prestigious universities that require the LNAT include the London School of Economics, University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, and University of Bristol. The text includes multiple-choice reading comprehension questions as well as an essay component. It is used alongside standard evaluation methods, such as A Level results (or their equivalent), university applications, and interviews.
