U're stats are definitely good enough for interviews The wait is too longggg

I'm looking at doing a medically based EPQ as well. I'm applying for medicine at uni this year and I'm hoping that it will prove useful at interview. Gene therapy seems like a good area but I know it is quite a common topic so if you were looking for something more unique maybe steer clear. However with it being common there's loads of resources available which I'm sure will prove useful later down the line.

I'm currently stuck with choosing between a more ethically based or more scientific EPQ. I was thinking about focusing more on ethics to balance out the science-based subjects I study at a level already.

I did a lot of work experience on a neonatal ward in a hospital so I was hoping to relate my EPQ to this area if possible. I was thinking something about the long-term effects of mechanical ventilation or if I went down a more ethical route to explore the idea of resuscitation/prolonging neonatal care around the 'borderline of viability'.

Anyone got any ideas around aspects of neonatal medicine that may prove interesting in an EPQ?

Thanks!! Ikr

How did what go? the EPQ or interviews?

I quit EPQ so didn't finish that... but I still got to use it at interview

Got 4 interviews
Withdrew from Liverpool
Got 3 offers from Manchester, Leicester and HYMS

Currently studying medicine at Manchester and it's absolutely great!

Thanks! Ah right nice... My brother did one on euthanasia and got an A*. Try to do something you can write quite a lot about and make sure it's fun... mine was really boring
