Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: What are Manchester’s views on part time jobs? Do you think it’s worth getting one?

Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: Do you have to be bare below the elbow at any point for the first 2 years of med school at Manchester, and also, do you have to make sure that your hijab doesn’t drape a lot?

Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: Aside from the lab sessions, are you exposed to research (getting to publish scientific articles)?

Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: How do you balance studying for medical school and your extracurriculars? Is there time for doing extracurriculars or joining societies?

Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: I want to study medicine but I have a history of struggle with mental health. Do you think that medicine is just too stressful for some people, or will I be able to balance it? I’m worried if it takes over my life I will struggle mentally

Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: I’m currently in year 12 and I think I would like to do medicine, but I also really want to enjoy my uni experience, as a medical student, do you think you go out enough or have enough time to wind down and chill with friends?

Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: Since you go to a clinical setting in around year 3, do you feel like you have enough information and a good grasp of everything before going, or do you guys get lectures and learn along the way?

Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: Do you guys get lectures or like courses on chemistry, physics or maths, if not then how exactly do you enrich yourself in those areas?

Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: What’s reading week & do you get it in all years?

Life at Medical School

#AskAMedStudent: Would you share how the OSCE works in Manchester? How many stations in every semester?

Love how the weather is brightening up a little, making me think back to last March (which I can’t believe it’s nearly been a year since 😱). Feeling tempted to do some baking again - maybe I will! Anyone got any recipe ideas? What was the last thing you baked? 🍰
Not me unboxing my LOOKFANTASTIC parcel during my zoom class. I was too excited 😆 I got these all using the Student Beans discount so I thought I’d make the most of the deals and stock up on some fun skincare masks - they’re running a 20% off all products until the 21st of February via Student Beans (I’ll link where you can sign up for it on my story). 🧖‍♀️ You can see me having lots of self-care days coming up with all these! #AD
The new semester is starting for us this week which means new modules! This semester I’ve got 4 modules: Genetic Ethics, Global Health, Society & Law and Mental Health Law which all seem as though they’ll be really interesting! Not looking forward to the 4 essays that’ll be awaiting me at the end though 😪
I’ve not really been feeling this account lately and I can’t get myself to post when I’m not in the mood. It’s a cyclical thing, losing my motivation for Instagram, I’m sure others on here can relate 😅
So here it is! 🌸 The new re-brand for my eco-friendly stationery shop: ItsPaperDaisy.
Some little big news.
A photo from March that never made it to the feed. 🙈 As soon as lockdown was announced and uni was cancelled I made a long list of things I wanted to do over what we then thought was just going to be a long Summer holiday. Looking through the list now, I did a handful of them: like read a number of the books I listed, embroider a bunch of totes; but there’s a lot I didn’t do. I think I spent the majority of my time sleeping late and waking late and then feeling more tired from ruining my sleeping pattern 😅
Was sent this @dreamlanduk heated throw a couple of months ago and I’ve been obsessed with it since, been using it so much recently. 🥰 It’s so cozy, perfect for working under over this winter period, even though it does often result in me falling asleep on what I’m doing, but comfort wins 😅 it heats up so quickly as well, literally love it. #gifted #bewarm #toastythrows #bringbacktheblankie
