Kayan Kotecha

Kayan’s passion for medicine took shape during his time at Beauchamp City Sixth Form, where he found inspiration in the exceptional teaching and supportive atmosphere. His favorite subject during sixth form was Biology. The high-quality and engaging teaching he received made him love the subject even more and sparked his curiosity regarding the human body. This played a massive role in shaping his decision to study medicine. 

Beauchamp City Sixth Form provided Kayan with a supportive and inspiring learning environment. The ethos and environment of the school contributed significantly to his success. His tutor and subject teachers supported him throughout the university application process, including conducting a mock interview, which Kayan found incredibly useful. The academic support in place helped him secure his place at University College London Medical School (UCLMS), where he is currently in his second year studying Medicine. Kayan’s outstanding academic performance, achieving 3 A*’s at Beauchamp City, helped him receive offers from all four medical schools he applied to. 

Looking back on his journey, Kayan advises current students to aim high when choosing universities and apply for aspirational choices, even if they are not 100% sure they will get in. "Applying to UCL was one of the best decisions I've made as it has resulted in me studying medicine at the 6th best university in the world for the subject," Kayan shares. He encourages students to take the leap and apply for their dream universities. 

Kayan's journey from Beauchamp City Sixth Form to medical school at UCL showcases the importance of a supportive and comprehensive educational environment. His story is a testament to the exceptional teaching and guidance provided by our dedicated staff.
