Advice for GEM in UK as Irish student

Hi everyone. I’m an Irish student finishing a BA in psych (predicted 1.1). Am deciding to do an MSc in neuroscience, as I’m not in a rush to pursue med too soon. Also taking the rest of the sections of GAMSAT next week, but will take it again.

I’ve been thinking of studying in the UK due to the much, much cheaper costs and help with loans. I’ve heard of the UCAT and will look into that as well to start prepping for it.

Was just wondering, if I do a 1-year MSc in neuroscience, what unis would I then be eligible for? Warwick seems to be the best option. What other unis would I be eligible for currently?

Also, would I be eligible for a post-graduate loan? What else should I be aware of between studying in Ireland vs UK? I live in Dublin so I understand living costs. Thanks a ton.
