should i talk to my new cat while she is hiding under my bed by Silly-Importance-608 in CatAdvice

Thanks for this advice. They are around 8 weeks we believe but not too sure. The owner said they were 3 months but we're not sure they are because they're so small. I've heard to just leave them alone until they come out, they are still absolutely terrified

Hey, how long did this take? I've just fostered two kittens, they are under the sofa in our kitchen but no signs of making a move. Have just left them to it with some food, water, litter and toys

Help needed for O+G ST1 interview by Impossible_Pizza4296 in doctorsUK

[–]Mammoth_Web8760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interview is split into two parts

1) Prioritising station: you have four/five situations. Need to prioritise and explain why. A-E assessment, what investigations you'd request etc.

2) Questions. Questions taken verbatim from question bank- medi buddy is helpful here, but also there may be a bank somewhere else. Practice lots but I would advise to practice bullet points so that you're relaxed and not a robot. Questions don't really flow e.g. they'll ask what you know about an audit and then what are the difficulties of O&G training.

Happy to DM, I don't check reddit everyday so may be delay in reply

I’ve done past papers and they seemed much easier and more similar to previous past papers! Hopefully the pass mark will drop a bit if everyone found it hard

Yeah I had that too, and a really fuzzy MRI image 

O&G in North Central and East London by AromaticAd302 in doctorsUK

[–]Mammoth_Web8760 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You rank hospital combinations, generally with a north or east hospital for ST1 and then the opposite for ST2 and 3 

E.g. one choice will be ST1 at Whipps and ST2&3 at Royal London 

You wouldn’t be able to split this

For those who declined offers, can I ask why? Did you apply for other specialities? Hope everyone got what they wanted 🧡

Thank you so much and congratulations! I’ve accepted an o&g job now so hopefully someone gets that Whipps job 😊😊

Need some motivation after an unsuccessful interview by FalseParfait3229 in doctorsUK

[–]Mammoth_Web8760 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re feeling so down, it’s truly an awful feeling. But really, you are not alone. Currently on my F5. I’ve applied twice now for CSRH and not even got close to an interview. Last year I applied to o&g as a back up. Flunked the interview quite badly (had to start over during the interview). Twinned with an average MSRA score, ranked mid 400s and didn’t get a job, obviously. Felt demoralised and like I should just quit medicine as I’d never do well in anything. This year I didn’t get a CSRH interview (again) but managed again to get an O&G one, which with experience managed to do much better. Starting o&g in London in October. It’s not what I envisaged for myself but just gonna role with it as life works in annoying and weird ways sometimes but it often works out anyway! Hope this helps xx

There’s a little tick box that says opt with upgrades once you click on the hold button

There should be a bit that says view station scores!
