PotMed 2009 - Are you going?

Hey guys,

Have you heard about PotMed 2009 @ Imperial College??

Here is the link:

http://www.union.ic.ac.uk/medic/muslim/potmed09.htm

Its like a workshop for potential medical students. They do UKCAT, BMAT and interview stuff! I've heard some really good stuff about it, was wondering if any of you are going??

i went once

£20 doesnt seem like much is it actually worth it?

Is it bad that I feel more nervous at the prospect of a fake interview rather than a real one?

Well, I don't know if it's any good, but for £20, they're hardly ripping you off like MedLink :p:

It's definitely for all religions. I think it's just either run or associated by the Mulim Medic society. :yes:

From what I know of it it's a brilliant not-for-profit course that is run by medical students to give out information, rather than a company trying to make money. So yeah, if you want to go on a course/lecture for Medicine, make it this one.

I'm not going, duh.

I went last year...oh no wait...2007 and it was very, very good indeed. I'm not muslim (in case you wondered) but it was very well run, very helpful and the mock interview sessions were great. The organisers were all lovely and helped lots. There was much food and help available. If you're anywhere near London or can get there, GO!!

Not like one of these commercial type events

OP

1) its defintely not just for muslims! its for anyone and everyone, its just the society Muslim Medics that organise it :smile:

2) yeah i've heard its fantastic too, and really worth the money, i mean £20 is fantastic. my friend's brother works for the society and he said the £20 is for the costs, its not for any profit, its for all the food and hiring out the rooms and lecture theatres and stuff like that.

i've heard that places are being filled up quickly so we should really get a move on with those application forms!
