Hi everyone, I am Sayanen. At the start of the year, I kept hearing “placement’s supposed to be chill; no more lectures, no more intense BRS revision”. But it may not be as relaxed as we initially thought with all the sign offs and the clerking and teaching and passmed and ward rounds and travel, the list goes on and on. If there’s anything that you’re struggling with, I want to help f ...
Hi everyone! I’m Prarthana (PV!), and I’m running to be your third year Academic Representative. This year marks a big transition from pre-clinical to clinical learning.

Some of us are commuting huge distances for daily placement ...
Hi guys 🙌 Year 3 is a big change from the past two years and I would like to help make that step up a bit easier. One thing I'd really like to do is make sure each placement rotation actually learns from the one before it. E.g if the first medicine rotation spends 8 weeks figuring out sign-offs, missing teaching, or things they wish they'd known earlier, the next group should NOT have to discover the exact same th ...
