do you think they will ask about covid because i am findng the covid questions on the medicmind website really difficult?

Nah I don't think so I've had an MMI (not from Plymouth) and they wanted something other than covid-19 which I think is good because every damn day the news is changing or there's something "new" about Omicron, it's so hard to a) keep up and b) give a timeline of events.

That time includes checking in and moving between stations :smile:

the course is enquiry based learning (EBL) but you still have lectures and other styles of teaching. Unless they change it before September the timetable for first and second year is based on 2 week cases during which you have 3x EBL sessions in a group of about 9 people. Supporting those sessions you also have plenaries a couple of times a week that are normally linked to the case, and LSRC (life sciences resource centre) sessions. The LSRC sessions usually require a bit of self-preparation work and are really useful opportunities to ask questions and apply your learning in a variety of ways. You also visit derriford for clinical skills once a week and have a placement (about 3 hours) every two weeks. There are also some random weeks thrown in where you work on longer-term projects, essays or any lectures which don't fit into normal case weeks
Years 3,4, and 5 are a bit different and mainly placement based but you still have lectures and clinical skills sessions based at either Derriford, Torbay or Taunton.


And here I was thinking EBL meant electronic based learning :colondollar:

Learn something new everyday...

Probably best for me to stick to EBL and Spiral based layered learning.

Thanks, yeah I’ve tried to make a timeline but so many things have happened that it’s difficult to keep track. I decided to focus more on questions that could have COVID context eg vaccinations, challenges in the nhs etc
