S5 Pupils interested in medicine as a career.

INFORMATION

Just to advise that Medic Insight have announced on their Facebook page that they will be opening up applications for their week long programmes (June dates) in the week commencing 19th February.

Closing date is 25th February and so there is a relatively short window to get applications in.

The Medic Insight programme (run by the University of Glasgow Medical Students) is for S5 pupils who are planning to apply for medicine (and who have not yet had a placement).

The Medic Insight programme offers an insight into the experience of a medical student, exposure to the NHS workplace environment (hospital and GP placement), presentations on core topics and simulated activities. The programmes have had very positive feedback over the last few years.

While we do not organise this event, NHS GGC supports the medical students to host this on our sites and our NHS clinicians host the placement activity.

NB – It is only open to S5 pupils who are on track to secure the grades required for medical school.
