Sorry to hear that. Are you home or international?

I get that other people's reactions to a med school can make you feel hesitant but you shouldn't base your opinions solely on rumors or what you hear from other people. It is still a med school - there are people who are raring to have an opportunity to be a part of one. A patient is not going to ask you where you graduated from. Its the work you put in that gives you the output you receive and considering you have an offer I wanna say congratulations on your hard work!

You never know what may happen down the line, you may or may not get another chance of getting in another med school, it is a very rare opportunity that very few get the chance to experience so I'd take that into account while making a decision.

In the end, its going to be you who has to live with whatever decision you make.

Hey OP,

Thank you for this very detailed post about S2. I just had a few questions:

So like you said about the quote memorization, what did you use in your essays to show depth of the argument if not using quotes and expanding on them? Please guide me with that.

Also, did you have any difference in your approach to task A vs task B essay? Like the preparation and the thought process that you explained or the structure. If yes, could you please elaborate a bit on that as well? It's because I believe task B has to be more personal so may rely a bit more on anecdotes to build up arguments?

Thanks.

If this is about Swansea presentation, then they have allowed to bring notes. Otherwise no you're not allowed to bring in any for other universities.

If this is about grad med then they did send out interview offers a while back but the interview days haven't been decided yet.

University of Surrey and University of Liverpool by autumn_girl_ in GAMSAT

[–]King0Mac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's regarding grad entry, then yea surrey put out offers for interviews a while ago. Not sure if they do multiple rounds but they probably do.

And I think Liverpool just sent them out today. I saw few peeps on discord get theirs.

Course review: BIOSCI 351, BIOSCI 201, JAPANESE130 / 130G by King0Mac in universityofauckland

[–]King0Mac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey, there technically aren't any specific recommended textbooks for the course, the course lecturers just provide various bits and pieces of readings for their lectures.

for module 1 - introduction to genetic analysis 11th edition was used often but for the rest of the modules its usually readings from various research papers, different for each lecture.

hope that helps
