set up a medical society at your school with us
what:
Setting up a Medical society/club at your school/university is easier than you think. We are here to help you along the way. You can either register a new society with us or enrol an already existing society with us. Either way, your work will be rewarded with a certificate at the end of the academic year.
WHY:
With tens of thousands of medical applicants every year, standing out from the crowd is becoming increasingly difficult. If you’re looking for something that could shine in your personal statement or that may be used to score extra points during your interview, being the founder and leader of a medical society might help. Your project could be used to portray key traits such as having good transferable skills (including organisational skills, etc).
benefits:
-
A certificate at the end of the academic year acknowledging your leadership skill signed by renowned doctors and several organisations including the College of Medicine
-
50% off the book The Unofficial Guide to Getting into Medical School. This book will help you with information which can be used to structure society talks
-
All members of your society will receive 30% off future events and presentations
-
Receive materials to help you with organising events for your society members
-
Our mentors could deliver a free presentation about getting into medical school, based on availability
Requirements:
In order to receive a certificate at the end of this summer, your society would need to tick all these boxes:
