Student Talks Medicine!

Annabel Lee (OI 2014-19) came in on Wednesday 18th January to talk about Hull York Medical School.

The Medical School took its first intake of students in 2003. It was opened as part of the Government initiative to train more doctors. Due to substantial investment Hull has a bespoke medical school building with cutting edge equipment.

Annabel discussed the pros and cons of studying medicine and what she wished she had known before she applied. The list included the importance of researching everything to do with the course, where placements will take place, how long the work shifts would be.

Annabel gave a good insight into Hull York Medical School and what she loves about their approach to teaching. 

Pupils took the opportunity to ask questions and apprectiated Annabel giving up her time to talk with them.

Andrew Calver, Deputy Head of Sixth Form commented, "It is so helpful to have OIs come and talk with our students as their first hand knowledge can help point out pitfalls to avoid. We are looking forward to our Careers Evening which takes place on Thursday 23rd March when there will be the opportunity to meet a wide range of professions and further education establishments."
