'''Oxford University
==Overview==
The Oxford University School of Medicine & Biomedical Sciences is traditional in its teaching and is therefore split into Pre-Clinical and Clinical phases of the course, with Pre-Clinical (Years 1–3) students being based in the [[Science Area, Oxford|University Science Area]] in [[Oxford]] City Centre, and Clinical students (Years 4–6) being based at the [[John Radcliffe Hospital]], in [[Headington]], Oxford.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.gmc-uk.org/Oxford_Medical_School_Final_Report.pdf_60201765.pdf | title=Oxford Medical School Final Report | format=PDF | website=www.gmc-uk.org }}</ref>

The medical school was ranked the 1st in the world by the 2019 [[Times Higher Education]] rankings of Universities for Pre-Clinical, Clinical and Health Studies (a position it has held for nine consecutive years).<ref>{{cite web| url=https://www.medsci.ox.ac.uk/news/oxford-named-best-for-medicine-for-ninth-consecutive-year | title=University of Oxford | website=[[University of Oxford]] |access-date=2020-01-16}}</ref>
== Teaching ==▼
The medical school admits 150 students per year onto its 6 year [[Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery|BM BCh]] course, which is a traditionally structured course consisting of two halves; a three year pre-clinical component with little patient contact and a high focus on the scientific principles of medical practice, and ends with the award of a [[Bachelor of Arts]] degree in Medical Sciences, and a three year clinical component with a high level of patient exposure that ends with the awarding of the BM BCh (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) degree, which provides provisional registration to the [[General Medical Council]], and entry to the [[Foundation Programme]].▼
The first female scholar admitted to the school was [[Christine Lee (academic)|Christine Lee]].{{fact|date=April 2020}}
There is also an accelerated [[Postgraduate education|Graduate]] Entry Course which leads to the award of BM BCh in 4 years, with approximately 30 in each cohort. This course is designed for those who already hold bachelor's degrees in applied or theoretical sciences. This course has an intensive 2 year component with a mix of pre-clinical and clinical teaching, and then the cohort integrates with existing students in their 5th year for the final two years of the course. ▼
