Me outside the med school. |
The clinical sessions were also very good, altough I feel there could have been more of them. For these sessions we were split into smaller groups in which we performed a number of practical sessions. There was an opthalmoscope, otoscope and stethoscope session, a casualty alert session and a session in which we had to diagnose patients.
In addition to the medical lectures, there were also a few lectures teaching us the tricks of getting into med school. One of these was The Edge session, which is a must-have extra! It was rum by a man called James and I think it was probably the most useful session of the whole course. The Edge taught us EVERYTHING we will ever need to know about getting in to med school and I came out feeling the most confident I have ever felt about getting into med school. I highly recommend it to any of you considering Medlink next year.
Finally, I would just like to thank the whole of the Medlink team for giving me such a useful and enjoyable experience, especially James, who really inspired me to do my absoloute best, and then more!
