Like many of St George's students, medicine wasn't even on the radar for Emma Humphreys when she was at school. Now, 36 year old mother of four, Emma goes to “doctor school on choo-choo” as her two year old son Ben, describes it. Or to put it more conventionally, she is on St George's MBBS4 (formally the Graduate Entry Programme), which allows people other than traditional A Level school leavers with science qualifications to qualify in medicine.
