We discuss how we both prepared differently, what courses we attended and the most effective way to revise for SJT. We finally end the journey of Medical school and talk about how amazing our graduation was.
3 Golden Pieces of Advice:
- Medical school is a protected environment which is very different to working as a Full-Time Doctor, try and start a project or start-up before graduating from medical school
- Be consistent during the final year with regards to exams, better to revise a small amount every day then to cram however most importantly identify how you revise the best
- SJT - Read GMC Good Medical Practice, practice official past papers online and try use limited sources to reduce conflicting answers
