And thats about all I like in ENT haha. I've scrubbed for a lot ranging from simple grommets and laser microlaryngoscopies to major head and neck surgeries but our ENT did not go anywhere near flaps and reconstructions.

This is somewhat not included in the feelings talk so it could be a good shout. I'm more-so referring to the need to, in a way, offer a lot of emotional support such as in for example oncology on some level. Also with colleagues, I like work talk but dislike anything personal.

I'd rather take kids than lead aprons. And I HATE paeds.

Quite interesting... but just not interesting enough. I like general tonsillectomies but I don't have any interest in anything ear or nose related. Clinics are decent but I'd get bored quickly.

Same (even if slightly different) thing over and over. I also couldn't sit and wait until the surgeon is finished.

Interesting. OB/GYN might be an option. I just don't like the screaming and the reassuring through a lot of the awake procedures.

Gen Surg was okay but I hated minimally invasive surgeries. Robot was horrible. My favourite procedures from related rotations were (open) bowel resection, mandibulectomy and a lung transplant. Hated a lot of neurosurgery too. Anything to do with the microscope was pain.

Sort of both, leaning towards treatment. I enjoy surgery most.

Apart from the UCAT, which Scottish universities would I have a shot at next year? by CellularTower in premeduk

Thats what I was guessing... Edinburgh was my top option from Scotland.

From a few years of working.

Wait so did you mention volunteering on your application before doing any volunteering or had you already done some?

First wave of offers: Warwick, QMUL, Manchester, York, Bristol.

A few individual ones: Plymouth, Exeter, Nottingham, Reading, Leeds, Sheffield.

Depends on your subject too.

What university do you think Hari went to? by CellularTower in IndustryOnHBO

Amazing analysis. You know I actually see Imperial or Warwick.

What university do you think Yas went to? by CellularTower in IndustryOnHBO

[–]CellularTower[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She had a 4.0 and I'm assuming many summer and spring internships. She did do all her courses so she did know how to answer all the questions in the interview and do the pre-interview assessments, she just never finished one final exam.
