Medicine (UG): Biomedical Science - Year Two Academic Representative

Hey!

It Kat, and this year I'm trying to become an academic rep once again :)

This year we all have a lot of tasks. Our modules are content-havier, projects require more engagement. And I didn't even mention the need to look for the placements, internships, recommendations. I believe that with this amount of tasks it makes sence to have a person who, you know, will represent you and make your complains and ideas be heard

During the first year I showed that I'm not scared to speak. All the teachers of BMB1 know me by voice, appearance or both. I ask the questions, contact people individually and not afraid of being refered to text other people. If the head of the module doesn't know something, the head of the year does, if not them, then there is for sure someone else who knows. If the question is bugging me, I will find an answer.

I know that the previous year academic representatives already found out that the administration is often not happy about changing something according to our requests (or because of our complains) but if you will choise me as your academic representative, I promise I will continue talking about everything that matters to you until there is going to be at least some compromise.

My first focus, of course, going to be on the exam notes, as many of us are worried about this change. Additionally, I want to make the system of providing the feedback clear.
