Election post
Hello, I’m Annliya! I’m currently intercalating in Maths & Computers in Medicine and I would love to be your Pre-Clinical Education Chair next year!
As last year’s MedTech Events Officer, I helped organise a sponsored collaborative study night with an external partner, where we shared practical study‑technique guidance and had structured Pomodoro‑style study sessions with built‑in breaks (powered by a copious quantity of snacks)! This is an idea I would love to introduce to help make revision collaborative and supportive throughout the year.
Next year, I hope to focus on delivering consistent, practical academic support through:
- An Exam‑Technique Series: sessions on approaching SBAs/DDS questions, recognising common pitfalls, revising efficiently and preparing for OSCEs (especially what to do when you just don’t know what to say!)
- Clarify Clinics: regular small‑group Q&A sessions where you can anonymously submit any question you have about key, confusing topics; it would also be a space for you to ask all your last‑minute “panic before the exam” questions in a supportive environment.
-
Micro Revision Bites on Instagram: quick, digestible content including key diagrams, SBA practice questions, concise topic summaries and useful revision resources we have found to support consistent, low‑stakes revision.
I want to make academic support more approachable and student‑led by listening to what you want and need throughout the year, so you feel more confident going into exams!
