@nxcare Hello!
I had paid for a ticket from Stratford London to Stansted airport with my passenger details. However the ticket was for a second person, would it be possible for him to use the ticket with my passenger details or does it need to be changed? can it be changed?

In light of the new #CST Portfolio changes, I'm collating a spreedsheet of all free-cheap conferences and courses suitable for FYs and med students. Please reply and RT with any suggestions! Let's make training accessible for all 💪🏻 (1/-)
As final year med students preference jobs, a reminder that #Excel is a powerful tool that you can use to help automate the ranking process.
Instead of doing all of the work, get Excel to do 90%, and you do the remaining 10%.

As a junior resident, I am always in awe by my coresidents who somehow know every little detail about every patient on their service. What are your tips to getting a good handle on a long patient list?
once again thinking about how many medical schools don’t record or double mark their osces, meaning your grade is just the opinion of one examiner, with no way to contest it. this leaves students extremely vulnerable to discrimination and i have no idea how it’s even legal tbh
