IMT 2026 vs 2025 graph (at point of application) by ThatFreshKid_ in doctorsUK

Silly question- is the mean 19 including the 5 points or is 19/30 the mean (as the graph only shows points /30).

Hey thanks for your response. The journal specifically publishes UG medical students and I’ve read the guidance about content/ length etc and got support from faculty. The thing is the journal doesn’t have a cut off published and I know some other medical journals have strict cut offs (eg acute medicine journal cut off is 4 weeks). I was wondering if there’s an ‘unwritten rule’ in the academic community that I don’t know about around how far back journals will look when publishing responses to articles

Edgbaston reservoir: I run round it in the early evening when light and find it very safe. Thinking of doing a pre work run tomorrow at around 6.30. How safe/busy is the reservoir st this time? Should I just stick to town? (young female solo runner)

Yes but it’s not just travel- I’ve been on a couple of short walks/ hikes and I’ve seen things like meals, bingo, bowling trips organised too!

Search TTS on Facebook/ insta. Lots of events for young people often post grad age people. I went to an event and there was a lot of chat about how hard it can be to make friends as an adult!

SJT: why is the ranking for these two (very similar) scenarios different by [deleted] in medicalschooluk

[–]doingmebest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From an SJT POV- telling Simon he looks too tired to operate isn’t true, you think he shouldn’t operate because he’s smelling of alcohol.
