malaz, why didnt you want to go to Cardiff?

i didnt wanna stay in Wales, i want something new. hence im scared that the novelty of London would ware off so quick and i would want to go back :|
in the back of my mind, i have a feeling that NHS in London has more experience and variaty to offer although Heath Park is the 3rd largest hospital in the UK. thats all, i dont have anything else against it.

i wish i didnt have the choice. :confused:

to renal, fluffy..... and the rest of the Barts lot. Hopefully, I shall be joining Barts in September. The only thing that is putting me off is this inherent daft attitude towrds QMers. I don't wanna accuse anyone of being the typical medstudent, but what is this relationship with QM about. Have you been like attacked by a mob of them as you were walking to the campus, even though you are at Whitechapel. Surely, having a big university at your doorstep should be a positive thing, but it seems you want to be completely dissociated from them. i sense a bit of medstudent arogance , but please change my mind or if not, explain to me why this unhealthy attitude exists. thanks.

It's no different to the varsity rivalry between other places: Cardiff/Swansea; Oxford/Cambridge; the rivalry between Manchester and UMIST (which still exists after merging!)...

It's all a 'bit of fun' with undertones of less fun (left over from the Merger). Incidentally, you will hear KCL medics being less than complementary about Strand Poly (especially since Strand Poly raped them of their own identity a few years back), and you occasionally hear grumbles from RUMS about UCL - especially as parental institutions take away more and more of a medical schools autonomy, character and identity. (If you want to understand more about this, read the 1995 white paper "making London better", and resultant responses).

Our rivallry with QM is played out on the sports field (at merger cup time), at RAG and other events. Most of us "BL'ers" on here have QM friends, in my year, several of the graduates on the 5 year course and on the GEP have QM degrees...

I was first introduced to the rivalry when I went to the student bar at Mile End with a few of my friends after a practical class back in year 1. We were chatting to some students at the next table, who were lovely until they asked "so what course are you doing?" then THEY became incredibly hostile. Turns out they were crayon munchers (Geography students).

So 'hate' them, yes. If one of them were in trouble, would we help, without a doubt.
