Nah I'm a medical applicant applying to Nottingham, Newcaslte, King's and Birmingham with this course as my 'backup' - not undermining it in any way of course, it looks great!

nawh I know, you need something as a backup :smile:

I'm doing it as my first degree before going on to do graduate medicine (I'm not smart enough to go straight in to medicine hehe). Which uni is your first choice?

First choice - well, I'd like any of em really but King's would be magnificent haha :P
If you're smart enough for AnaSci (yeah just made up a word) I'm sure you'll get into grad. medicine!

You so should, mind if I use it? They are all different but similar- Life Sciences at Dundee, Medical Biology at Edinburgh, Biomed at RGU and Clinical Science/Medicine FoundYr at Bradford :smile:

You realise it takes just a slight mispronunciation, a hint of a 'l' in the middle and people will think of something entirely different :wink:

What do graduates tend to go on to do? I think most of them will probably go on to a Phd and then do research/teaching. What else do they also do apart from that. Those of you who are doing it- what are you plans after you graduate :smile:

Hello all,
I just have a question for any current anatomical science students at university of dundee about the time table for first year. What days would you be in for semester 1 and 2, and timings ect. Generally

I was planning to commute and it would be a good help to see how viable that would be.

Hi, I'm about to go into 3rd year. You'll most likely be in five days a week varying from 9am to 6pm, sometimes with long breaks. I commuted last year and hated it with all the mish mash timings, so personally I would recommend going into accommodation.

Feel free everyone to ask any more questions!

P.S. I'll add in a shameless plug :wink:

for the CAHID (centre of anatomy and human identification) society, which is for anatomy, anatomy and physiology and forensic anth students (but anyone is welcome to join!). Everyone be sure to sign up at Freshers' Week if it sounds like your thing! Day trips, nights out, guest speakers etc etc are all in the plans for next year! We'll have something for everyone :smile:

I'm in first year, studying anatomy but firstly we're in life sciences. We're in five days a week, Monday and Friday are lab days, I start at 9am, then a break of a few hours, then finish at 5:30. Tuseday and Thursday are lecture days, two an hour long. Wednesday is your optional module, if you stick with the life science ones, and they are 9am to 12 or 1. I'd recommend staying here. The breaks between might drag and you make good friends in halls. Feel free to ask me any more questions, happy to help

I have applied for Anatomical Sciences too and I am still waiting for Dundee. I've got a conditional offer from Kings College of London.

I have just put University of Dundee as my firm choice to study Anatomical Sciences. Massive decision. Now waiting to hear about accommodation. Who else has accepted Dundee as their firm choice?
