Welcome
This website is no longer being updated. If you are interested in managing this website, or in finding out more about the Leeds BMA ISC please e-mail isc.chair.leeds@bma.org.uk The Leeds Intraschool Comittee (ISC) is your local branch of the Medical Students Committee (MSC) of the BMA. The MSC is the national forum for debate for medical student members of the BMA. The role of the ISC is to determine the issues that you would like the represented on the national stage. We also organize talks and events and provide information about national issues. More information NEWS May 2009 For the Foundation Programme application forms as well as answering a list of questions you will also need two referees to say how brilliant you are! Well don't be worried, the BMA ISC (intra-schools committee) have come up with a novel way to help your chosen referees to remember who you are and what you learnt from them. It may seem daunting to find two referees but if you start thinking now then it will be much easier than leaving it till the last minute. All you need to do is either print off this form (Word 2003 version here) and add a picture of yourself (a nice respectable one please!) or copy one from facebook onto the word document then print. Then fill in the questions so they know who you are, what placement you were on with them and what you learnt from it. Thats it! When the referees are asked for a reference from your prospective employers (which may be many months later), they will have some basic information to remind them of you to hopefully create a much more relevant reference. Please make sure you ask them before you fill in the form if they are happy to give you a reference, you may want to include a covering letter to them. But this form is not only for the current 4th years... There is no reason why you can't be thinking about this as a 3rd or even 2nd year! Don't panic, be prepared and don't leave it till it's too late! The BMA ISC is here to help with any questions you may have... Also coming soon.... The BMA ISC Forward Thinking Plan (including example questions from previous years applications and other helpful hints!) April 2009 March 2009 Date: Wednesday 11th March Amongst other things, Shan will be talking about: This will be a good opportunity to ask questions about your F1 contract before you sign it. *Please note* January 2009 Back by popular demand, the BMA ISC is holding another talk aimed at helping 1st, 2nd and 3rd year medics to make the difficult decision of whether or not to intercalate. The talk will include presentations by current intercalators on their experiences on a range of subjects, including: International Health; Physiology ; Anatomy ; Clinical Sciences ; Medical Imaging ; Ethics ; Primary Health Care and History of Medicine. There will be opportunities to ask all of the speakers questions and debate the relative benefits of intercalation. December 10 2008 November 2008 |
