Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

A week in the life of a med student?

Hello future doctors!

I found this page not long ago http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/wiki/A_Week_in_the_Life_of_a_Medical_Student, but it only has information on a few med schools. I think it could be a really useful resource for those choosing where to apply/accept, and also for those who have accepted a place and want to know what to expect in the first year.

Personally, I am going to study medicine at Newcastle this September. I don't really know what to expect other than what I can gain from the prospectus and what a few current students have told me. Obviously I researched the course as much as possible before applying, but I reckon a "week in the life" format would be nice.

Thank you to anyone who does fill in a section!
