how do you apply for accommodation?

my muse account page doesn't look like the one in the promo video and I can't see anywhere that gives the option to start applying.

I accepted my offer yesterday and my status in muse is that It has been accepted so it clearly has updated somewhat.
Did people who have applied for accommodation have to wait a while after accepting the offer to be able to book accommodation?

Mine interchanged between it looking like an ad for accomodation, and one that said book accomodation. I firmed on thur and worked today, so give it about 72hrs (exc. weekends). It will say login failed before then if you click on it

They make more available gradually so it's fair for those who can't firm yet, but I don't know how many rooms they open up each time. I'm assuming they have plenty though even through preferences

Hiya. Does anyone know how much of the sheffield course consists of problem based learning through ILAs? How often do you have ILA sessions? Would be great if someone could help :smile:

There's a 1h ILA once every 2 weeks, you also have to prepare for it beforehand and do a short quiz on the content from it after. I wouldn't say it's a massive part of the course but it is useful for consolidating knowledge :smile:

As said, not a huge amount. In first year there is one every 2 weeks and in second year there is only 6 of them (3 before Christmas and 3 after). I don't know about 3rd year onward though

Great, thanks guys!

does anyone know about contact hours/free time? or if anyone has a first or second year timetable to share? :smile:

First year:
mornings- start 9am and have between 1 and 4 hours of lectures
afternoons- the more interactive stuff like anatomy, ILAs, GP sessions, these are between 1 and 3 hours. Usually at least 2 afternoons are free for independent work
evenings- basically free but very rarely a group session for Community Attachment scheme as this is with a doctor who works all day. Also occasional optional revision sessions with older students (which are useful & I recommend attending if u can)
independent work- preparing for afternoon sessions, assignments (SSCs), histology practicals and catching up on missed work.
I hope this helps, I'm gonna try and find a weeks timetable too. If anything needs clarifying or there's something I've mentioned that u haven't heard of before, just let me know and ill explain :smile:

This is one of my more busy weeks in second year - lots of lectures, a GP session, and one of my clinical skills exams. The prescribing task is a self directed task that gets released on the thursday and then the answers get released on fridays - it's not 2 sessions.

This is more typical for second year.

Other things that you will have are microbiology practicals which I think are normally in person (they were online for us) and they are usually every 2 or 3 weeks.
There is a lot more independent learning in second year. You have lots of diseases you need to learn about but only some of them will have lectures and the lectures definitely don't go into enough detail so my mornings usually were filled with independent learning. You also need to prepare for the ILA and GP sessions
