Hiiiiiiii
I'm currently in Year 11 and would like to pursue a career in Medicine - I'm particulary interested in surgery.
Obviously when you finish your GCSE exams you have a really long summer and in that I would like to do some work experiece because I know you need to do a lot for a medicine career as there is a lot of competiton.
So I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on things I could start doing in summer to stand out when it comes to uni applications? I know it is very early to start thinking about uni but I know how much competition there is for spaces on courses!
I know that obviously going to hospitals and doctors sugeries is a good idea and I do have a few lined up but I was wondering if there was anything quite unique that I could do to stand out? Whether work experience or clubs etc etc.
I do DofE and I've done Bronze and I am planning to do Silver and Gold too as well as NCS? (I think that's what it is called?)
Thankyou to anyone who gives any ideas or help!
