[Talking about GP placement] "I really enjoyed it, learnt a lot of skills. The team are lovely.

I'm here with two other students and they're trusting us a lot. It feels very independent and very different to our first few years."

"Today is one of our simulated surgeries, which we get three of a year. It is essentially like a mock OSCE where you rotate around different stations.

I think there's about eight stations in total and it's like a GP simulation, so you go through different cases."

"I've got theatre now and that's what I really enjoy about coming in for placement. You get to see the medical side but also the surgical side, which is really interesting.

"Thursdays are IRP days, that's your independant research project. It's really similar to a dissertation, you can chose a lab-based study, a systematic review or an audit. What I really like about Thursdays is that you can set your own schedule."
