Posters/oral presentations for AFP (medicine)

Hi everyone, I know for AFP and specialty applications you can get points for posters/oral presentations at regional, national or international conferences. I was wondering if student-run conferences count (like those run by societies, or collabs between research societies from multiple unis across the country). Or does this only include conferences run by royal colleges or professional bodies?

TBH, the academic programme is not a unified thing, each of the different elements can pretty much score as they like.
So more likely to score with college and post grad specialist societies, but some might take evidence of posters at med school etc as being indicative of enthusiasm, and score too.
And ukfpo are changing how scoring works with the main prog, so tbh might also change academic.
