How to apply, and how to maximise your chances of
acceptance. What selection committees want to read on your UCAS form.
Traditional or Integrated Course? / Campus or City
University? / Reputations / Differences / How to make an informed choice.
Given by doctors with substantial experience of selecting
and interviewing potential medical students. We suggest what you can expect, how to conduct yourself and how to impress.
What is on the course and how it is taught? What is an
intercalated degree?
All about accommodation, social life, money and the other
questions you have never dared to ask the careers advisor!
The diversity of careers available, from Forensic
Pathologist to General Practitioner. This lecture also covers pay and other
practical aspects of the medical career.
Interactive "workshop" sessions - click on the title to view
Learn how to suture with real sutures and instruments,
taught be qualified surgeons. The only difference is that you'll be operating on
wounded oranges rather than human beings!
Cardiology - ECG Interpretation
Learn how to read Electrocardiographs (Heart Tracings), an everyday activity for a typical junior doctor - is the patient having a heart attack?
A junior doctor might have to look at and interpret 20
X-Rays in a day. We will give the hands on opportunity to learn how to read
them and make a critical diagnosis.
Learn how to "take a history" from a patient, the process whereby a Doctor
learns what is actually wrong with the patient. Learn how non-verbal
communication and subtle differences in questions can be useful to help make a
diagnosis.
