Someone said if you went through something traumatic and couldn’t finish biomed so you only took sem 1 and didnt take sem 2, with the new admission scheme, would you be able to retake biomed first year next yesr and apply via that pathway?

basically, my grades are okay. Plussage for chem will pull through so i’m sure i’ll land a A+, i’m at a A+ for biosci overall and overall a B+ for pophlth (got cooked) currently w/o considering exams.

But during this period i went through someone so unimaginable ☹️ i don’t want to specify details on here cause my friends use reddit, but i had to really sacrifice to get these grades and it’s taken me out - mentally, physically and socially.. i don’t know if i can continue not because it’s academically challenging but moreso the trauma. Like ngl i didn’t fully get to go through it and i tried my best with midsems but my dream is medicine. ☹️

anwyas i know this migut be a cliche post and / or some people might not like the fact ive come onto here but i lowkey just needed to get this out

google says it’s open at 5:00am - is this true!? planning a lock in sesh tmr and dad can drop me off on his way to work around 6:00am - saves me the 1 hr transport, so wondering if it is actually open haha

does anyone just watch the lecture + make anki at the same time for this module - if you did, how did you manage with the sheer amount of info...

help..

lowkey kate pmo me so much i jus wanna lock in and the there’s one airpod or a jacket saving a table ☹️

heys freaking out abt chemmm mine still has not come out but like for plussage if you get a C+ in test but A+ in exam what is your final grade??

I hopefully won't get C+ but I feel like imma be like a B...

like… i’m spending an hours on ONE lecture it’s clearly not productive…

My current process is to oook through transcript and add stuff alongside lecture slides then make notes in google doc and then make anki…

idk why but it takes me so long 💔

I ask, because, I remember going to my local library in the weekend and uni students would literally wait so long for the door to open and then RUN to grab a seat (yes RUN, no I didn't run but I made my mum LOL).. so I'm wondering if that's the case w the general library..

so basically my Q is are people literally running into the library to try get a seat when the general library opens?

hey guys!

I want to double check my answers for the osmolarity lab, do any previous years have theirs that I could please use to compare !! would be much appreciateddd

im wondering if going through the required reading (everything except gate notes as ik those are important) will be low yield for the test just because I haven't Done any of the required reading and so im debating if I should go through it?

maybe should I chuck it into chat alongside the learning objectives?? thoughts?

if I get A+ overall in biosci (im hopeful test went good and If I continue revision hopefully exam too!) and the other core papers EXCEPT chemistry how doomed am I if I apply for med?

Today we had chem test (and I genuinely though the test was easy but I just had not preped enough {personal life stuff - no, it doesn't count for the AEGORANT thingy}) and I feel like I scored 70%-80% (+/-10%), def not below 70% but def not in the 90%s.

If worst case senario scored 70%, on the TEST, how would I need to make this up (my labs haven't been perfect ngl) but I am confident with the other stuff we get graded on (like assignments) and hopefully my situation will be better for the exam, as I know I can do so well in chemistry, its my favorite, I just had some stuff going on.

so realistically if I get A+ in biosci, pophlth and medsci but based on the scenario above I have described for chemistry..

(a) how well would I need to preform in exam (I am trying to get as close as I can to full marks!!!!!!! I am going to try really hard)

(b) given it I get A+ in the 3/4 cores, what happens if my chem isn't A+ (and what would the lowest score be for me to be considered for med)

(c) is there anyway I can get extra credit ahhh (ik American core) but atp I feel like I need it

and YES. I have been getting plussage.

- my ucat prep has been sufficient and im happy w my scores

- I am confident in my interview skills.

For someone who has done ZERO prep these questions seem pretty striaghtforward as I was lowkey enjoying it (I bet im doing something wrong haha) but I'm thinking are these more like 'questions' to practice on? cause (at least the question for module 1) seemed straightforward..

did the test actually seem like this? what is the best way to get A+? I NEED A+ GNG I forgot about a quiz...

How would I get access to more questions (especially for module 2!!!!!)?

do you watch lecture recording > (annotate - physically or type it) > then summarise lecture

or is there a quicker way?

Hi!! First massive thanks to spacelawyerguy for uploading his anki!!

I was wondering if anyone is using his anki for POPHLTH111 and how they are finding it? If i’m being honest i completely slacked POPHLTH and have nothing for module 2 (IK…. JUDGING IS ALLOWED) and i’m trying to work out if the best strat is jus spamming his flashcards + doing past papers OR to go through lectures, make notes, make my own anki and do past papers.

What are your best tips for keeping anki to just know the necesssry details?? And w this star slides do we need to know the statistics or the CONCEPT?
