I just looked at the LWMS website and it states that the partnership between Leicester and Warwick has run its course. Was this expected? I'm just intrigued as i'm trying to advise a mate of mine who is applyin to Leics to study medicine(im already a history student here). I doubt this move would have much impact on the students at either place, but thought i'd ask.
I imagine it was just a way of helping Warwick build its med school up whilst it was starting. : /
Yep, I think this was pretty much the case. My cohort (2005) were the last year to use the LW course structure unfortunately, the new cohort have a much better deal. The way examinations are now set out and examined for WMS students is much better than the Leicester way which I unfortunately still have to follow.

It's very old news and has been planned for and talked about for at least the last three years.
Yeah, these new medical schools are beginning to take flight. Keele will be offering Keele MBChB degrees for the first time in 2007! (well, to the students who enter in 2007 anyway, so not til 2012 or something).
