Hi guys, I’m Afrin and I would love to be your next Pre-Clinical Education Chair! 

I have found the tutorials run by MedSoc an invaluable revision tool and I am eager to help with their organisation and ensure that the tutorials that we run are tailored to your needs! 

Having been an Academic Rep during both of my preclinical years, I am passionate about harnessing feedback to understand which parts of the course students find more challenging and am keen to shape tutorials around these.

I have held several committee roles over the past 2 years in academia, social media and conference-running, and I now have a solid understanding of the organisation behind a committee which will help me arrange more fun and useful tutorials with our new team next year!

These are just some of my ideas for the upcoming year:

- Develop discussion-based revision sessions to practise CPSA skills earlier in the year for second years 

- Liaise with the RUMS Academics team to understand what students are finding difficult 

- Collect feedback throughout the year about topics that students find more challenging, to help develop tutorials for following years 

- Work with the MedSoc Secretary to create a comprehensive timetable of which tutorials are being run by the different subcommittees 

Thank you for your time and I hope you will vote for me :)
