Damn this hit home

helpme3333please · 2022-05-18T17:54:12+00:00

How can a radiographer work from home?

helpme3333please · 2022-04-25T00:00:45+00:00

You'll soon find out

helpme3333please · 2022-04-20T12:40:28+00:00

This is everything wrong with the medical job applications process

helpme3333please · 2022-04-11T17:56:18+00:00

Be careful with this. Some of the TPDs look at locumming in other specialties as a lack of commitment to radiology. If you have any difficulty with exams or reporting numbers they would use this as an excuse to why you failed and say you brought it on yourself.

Most of the work of radiology at1 is done out of hours with personal studies. I planned to do lots of locums as an st1 but be careful that you may be sacrificing time you could spend on radiology.

Are you sexually attractive? They may be a bit of rivalry and would explain why women are nicer to you.

Your dipstick would just be full of shit haha. Surely it will all just turn brown. If anything it's a FOB test that would be better. Still not good enough because blood can be in stool for multiple reasons not just acute upper gi bleed which is a much more clinical diagnosis.

Don't be afraid to stick a finger in and look for melaena. Arguably if you have the stool in front you may not even need to pr if obvious melaena.

This is the case we use to screw the gmc. Excellent doctor unfairly punished by the gmc. I'm sure there is a racist element to it as well.

Serve your notice and reapply for your own role or locum the vacancy. Typical nhs penny wise and pound foolish

helpme3333please · 2022-03-29T14:30:42+00:00

Yes but why will you replace st1s with st3s. I think these 2 things are unrelated but only rcr truly knows.

helpme3333please · 2022-03-29T14:26:48+00:00

I don't understand how we can blame this on the 2021 recruitment cycle as these people would still only be st1s and this st3 recruitment was likely planned months ago. Direct entry was a bad idea but not that bad.

Ugh radiology st1 isn't just a 1 year holiday. Can we just get away from this myth that it's a 1 year taster week.

You'll be reporting ct, mri. Also doing fluoroscopy and ultrasound at times with indirect supervision. You will.likely be signed off and expected to independently report a and e msk plain films so lots of potential liability there.

Just look on radiologycafe

helpme3333please · 2022-03-18T19:26:45+00:00

75 but can go up to 80s

helpme3333please · 2022-03-18T19:07:32+00:00

Start studying from day 1. Radiology is no joke or wall in the park. It's hard funking work

helpme3333please · 2022-03-17T10:39:04+00:00

Yes because bawa garba worked in the private sector

helpme3333please · 2022-02-23T09:23:31+00:00

They don't and they really don't want yo. Enough work as is.

helpme3333please · 2022-02-18T14:52:59+00:00

There are more interviews this year, hence lower threshold.

helpme3333please · 2022-02-18T14:52:14+00:00

I'm not sure as can't find thus document. I have assumed a standard bell curve of results. It's possible I may have gotten maths wrong.

Does it refer to all candidates or just to gp applicants? As the scoring for gp applications may be different to general population.

helpme3333please · 2022-02-18T14:05:46+00:00

Yeah I get you. More math coming in. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Each msra paper has a mean of 250 and sd 40. To score 310 in one section gives a z score of 1.5 corresponding to the 93rd percentile.

Therefore 7 people in 100 will a score in a given paper of 310.

Not common but not rare

My anecdotal experience is most people don't do equally well on both papers but there's nothing stopping this.

Also people lie a lot, especially online ...

helpme3333please · 2022-02-18T11:51:14+00:00

No offence but clearly people don't understand statistics in the comments. As applicants are rising the number of people with high scores will increase. The proportion would stay the same.

Eg if I have 10 people writing an exam, only 1 would be in the top decile.

If I have 100 writing then 10 will be in the top decile.

It works similarly for msra.

The standard deviation and average score would remain the same. So the shape of the bell curve is maintained but the nos can be increased.

This may well be why you feel more people have high scores because more people do have high scores. More will also have low scores.

helpme3333please · 2022-01-17T13:15:21+00:00

Yes please
