I'm a medicine re-applicant starting in September, AMA!

Which university?

What did you do in your gap year?

What made you want to study medicine?

Pretty much grown up with it in my face. My mum worked as a nurse in a palliative care unit and I used to wait in the staff room for her to finish after I had been to my dad's so I came into contact with a lot of healthcare professionals from a young age. Apart from that though, pretty much the same as everyone else: love of anatomy; like speaking to new people; challenge of diagnosis/treatment and so on and so forth.

Congrats on your offer from Glasgow. Must of been interesting being introduced to a hospital environment at an early age. I can imagine you can't wait to start the course!

Thanks! Honestly can't wait, less than 7 weeks to go though! What about yourself, any offers?

Not long to go then! I'm actually going into my second year. I actually can't wait to go back, I miss being busy! Is Glasgow a traditional/PBL/integrated course??

Oh sweet, which uni? It's integrated now thank god as it used to be heavily PBL until 2012. They still do it a bit more than other integrated unis I'd say but as long as its not the be all and end all I'm fine with it haha!

I'm at Manchester Haha, you not a fan of PBL?? Manchester is slightly more integrated now with more lectures and contact time but used to be PBL crazy. Where else did you apply?

What on the course are you most looking forward to? Be it specific subjects or just uni life in general?
