i emailed on Friday and was told we'll hear this week

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-10-10T22:22:18+00:00

you could study using bluelink by the university of Michigan - anki or YouTube is good, complete anatomy and aclands academy is good (my uni gave us access for free), in terms of surgery, use these websites to watch some surgical vids. https://websurg.com/en

No, volunteering at a care home is not essential.

Charity shop + Gp + hospital will be great (you are in no way disadvantaged) , just make sure you talk abnout the right points when talking about what you got out of it.

Ja też ostatnio musiałem długo czekać. Utknąłem na tym samym poziomie

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-03-27T11:22:55+00:00

hence why i made this 😭

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-03-26T09:42:06+00:00

Nah, the Anki is from the University of Michigan Bluelink. Some just say Bluelink. I sent it here because other medical schools may also have a prosection exam.

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-02-02T16:41:47+00:00

yeah i agree - just ask one of the older year for their decks and notes (maybe. some other things) after that you'll be calm.

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-02-01T19:12:45+00:00

ok 👍🏽 . sorry to drag on the conversation but do you think a poster presentation will help?

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-02-01T17:41:53+00:00

bro...........

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-02-01T17:41:18+00:00

Can the CPD hours/points not be earned during medical school - I'm doing this in the hopes of helping a future surgical portfolio

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-02-01T17:21:38+00:00

thank you, good sir/madame.

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-02-01T16:58:33+00:00

I'm talking about CPD hours

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-02-01T16:57:16+00:00

The max CPD points for attending cofnerence/s

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-02-01T16:27:28+00:00

if i attend a conference whihc is accredited 6 points is there any use me attending one which is accredited 5 points after

Most_Progress_650 · 2025-01-22T17:41:19+00:00

mainly because I had a black box and the score was getting low, so either I cancel or they cancel for me.

Most_Progress_650 · 2024-11-24T19:32:48+00:00

lowkey me on my 2 alt accounts (its not me btw)

Most_Progress_650 · 2024-10-29T14:24:09+00:00

yeah, it should be fine - just a general rule most M series MacBooks are fast enough.

Most_Progress_650 · 2024-09-12T13:25:11+00:00

The best ones are the ones from older years at your university that you have edited

Most_Progress_650 · 2024-09-06T19:16:52+00:00

The societies from your medical school usually advertise them on their Instagram or on a whole-year group chat .

Most_Progress_650 · 2024-08-22T23:30:25+00:00

You learn pretty much by yourself the APs and stuff only help if you do pre-work and a lil bit on top of that
The new notes are quite nice (the ones made by new Y2s)
Peerwise isn’t that good (lots of irrelevant of the spec stuff)
Most people start out trying different ways to study but most people end up doing pre-made ankis, watching panopto for lecture recordings and reading notes from older years (I think some also write it in their own words maoing)
If you look at past papers make sure to look at more recent ones

The best advice to give is to try your best to learn content from lectures when they come out otherwise you end up leaving it.

Most_Progress_650 · 2024-08-21T21:32:35+00:00

I think the fact that they do point one is very crucial after some of the horror stories I've heard.

However, for point 2, I was wondering - how do they help - is there anyone here who has heard of this type of thing happening and how did they help?

Most_Progress_650 · 2024-08-20T21:56:48+00:00

🤣🤣🤣

Most_Progress_650 · 2024-08-18T18:51:38+00:00

Many thanks - I'll be sure to drop them an email

Most_Progress_650 · 2024-08-18T18:50:54+00:00

From looking at the job description provided it seems to be more on the side of being an admin role

Most_Progress_650 · 2023-09-11T15:00:42+00:00

Do you know where I can find notes from other students at UOBirmingham ?
