Idris™
Your AI medical & dental school admissions tutor.
Idris™ lives inside MedicHut. He explains why a UCAT answer is right, drafts a personal statement angle, walks an MMI station, and tells you which UK med & dental schools fit your profile - all in one chat. Every drill, question and explanation is written by tutors who scored in the top 1% of the UCAT.
UK medical and dental admissions can feel like a minefield - especially for parents. Idris™ puts all of MedicHut's resources in one place so you always have somewhere to ask.

What Idris™ actually does
Not a generic chatbot. Idris™ is fine-tuned on UCAT strategy, UCAS rules and the admissions profile of every UK med & dental school.
UCAT strategy on demand
Ask Idris™ to walk through any VR, DM, QR or SJT question. He names the trap, shows the keyword scan, and builds a repeatable approach - not a generic explanation.
Knows all 47 med + 16 dental schools
GCSE thresholds, UCAT cut-offs, contextual offers, weighting (UCAT vs GCSE vs interview), interview format. Ask about Manchester, KCL, Birmingham, Plymouth, QUB, Peninsula - he has the profile.
Personal statement coaching
UCAS 2026+ format (3 structured questions, ~750 chars each). Idris™ reframes CV-dump answers into reflective ones tied to the GMC duties.
Interview prep & ethics
MMI stations, panel questions, Oxbridge science-led interviews. Frameworks: 4 pillars, SPIES, Calgary-Cambridge, GMC Good Medical Practice 2024 and the GDC Standards for the dental team.
Shortlisting advice
Tells you which 4 schools fit your GCSE profile, predicted A-Levels and UCAT band - and where to put your non-medicine backup.
Personalised daily nudges
Reads your last drills and streak, then suggests the smallest next win - usually a 3-minute drill that moves your weakest subtest.

What MedicHut students say
Real offer-holders coached by MedicHut tutors and the same playbook that powers Idris™.
“I attended the UCAT masterclass and it was very comprehensive and useful. All tutors explained things well and could answer any questions I had. Especially Anna for the verbal reasoning section, her tips helped me improve so much in the hour that we spent on it. I went from not even being able to read the text in the time, to getting questions correct consistently. Overall a very good, detailed course and the perfect start to my UCAT prep.”

UCAT masterclass ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“MedicHut is an extremely helpful website if you are applying to sit the UCAT exam. I paid for the Full Package and through this it gave me so many wonderful tools to help me revise. I began with their UCAT video-series, then used tuition hours with my wonderful UCAT tutor Fatima, who really helped me practice the UCAT for many months to solidify the basics. Finally, after booking my UCAT exam I made use of the question bank to start practicing many questions myself whilst having Fatima guide me on what to focus on each week. All in all it helped me to score a 2210 and a Band 2, so I can recommend this platform is top quality and will undoubtedly set you on the right path for top marks.”

Scored 2210 + Band 2 in the UCAT 2025
“I have used this company for interview prep for Dentistry and highly recommend. I was allocated tutors who were dental students from the universities I applied for. This was very helpful as it meant that I would be taught from someone who has been through the same interview process and has a first-hand experience of the university. I would recommend to other students applying for dentistry/medicine.”

Helped me get offers for dentistry!
“MedicHut has honestly been incredible, and I cannot recommend them enough. I prepared with them for both of my interviews, and I received offers from both universities, which I genuinely believe reflects the quality of their preparation. You're paired with either a medical student or a doctor from the specific medical school you're applying to, which makes the advice incredibly relevant and personalised. I will always, always recommend MedicHut to anyone applying to medical school.”

They're amazing, I got all my offers post interview!
“Both the tutors, Alethea and Kamran, were really good and really helped me understand the different sections of the UCAT. The experience was very interactive, and I really enjoyed how we worked through the questions as a group to hear different opinions (especially for SJT, which can be subjective). The course didn't just focus on UCAT, but also covered some bits on general med school applications, where I got some really good advice from clearly experienced Medical Students. Overall, a great course and definitely would recommend!”

Great UCAT Crash Course!
“One of the best things about MedicHut is the variety of resources available for preparation, from 1-to-1 tutoring to mock MMI interviews, they helped me prepare effectively, and I had a stress free interview experience because the whole thing felt almost like second nature. Confidence is the key to excelling in medicine interviews and safe to say I had plenty of that after my preparation with MedicHut. The team was also excellent with communication throughout the entire process.”
