    How's everyone getting along? Futuredoc?
    Mighty fine. How are you doing? How did the first year go? Was it what you expected or better? :awesome:

    Many congratulations. I'm very pleased for you and glad the persistence paid off. Soton was one of my daughter's offers, but she's chosen Leeds.

    Good luck and I hope it's everything you've waited so
    long for.
    Thank you. Leeds sounds great.

    I am, yes! Did you apply for medicine again? I've given up on medicine, which is annoying because I don't know what career route to take

    Officially resigned from the hospital :woo: :woo: :woo: :woo: :woo: :woo: :woo: :woo:
    Currently sunning it up in España ...just saying
    I actually can't wait until September!!!
    Already have my Littmann Classic SE II! complete with name engraving- a leaving gift from my department btw, I definitely wouldn't have bought one this early
    Does anyone agree that buying one now would feel too pretentious? Or do we actually need one in 1st year?

    Yay! What medical school are you going to? I'm so happy for you, you took such a risk and I'm glad that it has paid off for you!
    Maybe, it depends on what results I get during second year. I will also need to apply for work experience and voluntary placements :sigh:

    Woo! :five:
    Honestly, I haven't even arrived yet and it feels like Peninsula is perfect for me! :love: :daydreaming:
    then again i guess you tend to feel attracted to any medical school that gives you an offer

    SO AM I!! :eek3::eek3::eek3::eek3::eek3::eek3::eek3:
    8th is pretty early - do you get a fresher's fortnight or just a week?
    Don't you feel like you appreciate your place so much more this year than if you'd had one last year?? - not that I would have taken it for granted last year but I just feel so much more prepared and actually ready to work..
    If that makes sense lol..

    I feel the same about St Andrews, perfect

    It's just a week but I think it's cause they've changed when they're exams are (now pre-Christmas) so have to start earlier to cram everything in the first semester. But at least I'll get to enjoy my Christmas holiday revision free

    Yeah totally! I feel like I've earned it! Well not 'earned' as such but hopefully you get what I'm trying to say But yes! I do feel ready to properly go for it now after having a nice but tiring year off. I'm ready to learn!

    Med school come at me bro! :lockstock::nutcase:
