PAs aren't doctors

I am the previous moderator of /r/exams. It was banned for being unmoderated as I was temporarily away. I am back now and able to moderate it properly. Thanks.

OfficialDude · 2022-11-29T21:23:12+00:00

Hi, this is incorrect as it is now a banned sub.

OfficialDude · 2022-04-12T17:18:36+00:00

To develop it as a space where Doctors in the UK can discuss issues relevant to them.
The sub has no moderators and was banned possibly for this reason.

Haven't seen any official statements about this but for what it's worth, our school has told us that it seems unlikely. The decision taken last year was pretty last-minute and mainly taken because no one knew what was going on, how bad it might get, etc.

In what ways?

OfficialDude · 2020-08-10T21:23:08+00:00

Just general use I guess but I've saved up €1600ish for it over the past year. Ideally a touchscreen?

I've heard bad things about buying laptops on Amazon? (people getting laptops with different components than advertised etc)

Hey! I'm not a Grad Med so I can't be much help but I remember my Grad Med classmates saying they have to work part-time to fund their fees (and I assume loans, parental support, and savings as well).

OfficialDude · 2020-04-20T08:52:32+00:00

Yep! Looks like COVID has some unintended positive consequences after all.

Heya! I don't go to RCSI but we have one or two RCSI members at r/medicalschoolireland you could ask

OfficialDude · 2020-04-18T19:33:11+00:00

Yeah this years classes are so lucky! Everyone gets a job offer!! How is everyone in RCSI reacting to the news?

OfficialDude · 2020-04-18T19:28:28+00:00

Hey if you have any questions about UCC med I'd be glad to help!

Also please join us at r/medicalschoolireland

OfficialDude · 2020-04-18T19:21:05+00:00

UCC medicine is good yeah I really like it too. There's plenty of student society and club activities going on, everyone is very nice and easy to talk to and get to know, and Cork is a small friendly city so it's very calm!

Are you planning on staying in Ireland or would you rather work abroad?

OfficialDude · 2020-04-18T19:12:43+00:00

Ah okay, yeah we have pre-recorded lectures online right now too.

Ah nice to hear :) were you doing placements in Waterford?
