Went to a careers conference yesterday to hear lectures from doctors, careers advisers and current medical students talk about their experiences! Was really interesting to chat to the medical students about medical school and what it’s all really about... they chatted about their interviews and how they coped with the pressure of getting good grades and staying well rounded. They also gave me an insight into what being a med student is really like. I found out about optional modules which are available to medical students to make them more ‘well rounded’, such as languages and sciences such as anthropology. This made me feel more comfortable about the idea of medical school and has made me really excited about the prospect of going! It seems to be so diverse and wrought with opportunity to study what you are really interested in.
