Medical Careers Day

Pupils from Y10 travelled to Hugh Baird College to take part in a medical careers day on Wednesday. The pupils were greeted by the two current medical students who talked to them about how to apply for medicine, how to prepare personal statements and what to expect from university. The students were at different stages in their careers and at different universities. The pupils were then placed into teams of four with pupils from other schools across Merseyside and took part in four different sessions; medical ethics, anatomy, diagnostics and emergency medicine. These sessions were also run by current medical students. The final part of the day was a question and answer session where pupils could ask any question of the medical students and also two doctors at different stages of their career.
