Congratulations, you’ve made it. After twelve months of personal statements, stress and UCAS now here you are, about to take on 5 years which (full disclosure) will include at least one of those things. Some nerves at the start of this are of course are to be expected and you will have an abundance of questions. Where is my stethoscope? What is an omentum? Who is Krebs and why is his Cycle such a pain in the gluteus maximus?
Well with answers to all these questions and more is MedSoc. We are THE student-run society for medical students in Sheffield, running everything from Mock OSCEs and Welfare Cafes to helping organise 3 balls and numerous socials and supporting over 40 sports teams and sub-societies.
On top of all of this we offer a range of exclusive discounts to members in all sorts of bars, shops and restaurants in Sheffield. That is the plug over with, if any of that has got your sympathetic nerves jangling, please have a look around our website and join via the link to the SU website.
All that remains to be said is we hope you have an absolute blast here in Sheffield, yes Medicine can be hard work but we hope to make it that little bit easier for you (and all the more enjoyable for it).
Phil Mitchell,
President
MedSoc Committee ’19-20
