My name is Tom and I am at Robinson College, Cambridge – which, as a second year, means that I have seen the grand total of 6 patients since the course began. 

I am going to share a little about my experiences of student life which hopefully will be insightful and perhaps occasionally useful! There are just 3 weeks left before we break up for Easter so the worst of the work for this term is almost over and the 4 main courses for this year, Pathology, Pharamcology, Human Reproduction and Neurophysiology/anatomy are beginning to wind down to make space on the timetable for our options course.

Life is not all work though and I’m also really looking forward to the Officer Training Corps Annual Dinner (Yep I joined the Army while at University), a Black Tie affair at St Johns (one of the Cambridge colleges) on Saturday. It is going to be amazing.

Most importantly, I will be choosing my room for next year tomorrow – It is all decided by an arcane system in which those that were last in the previous year are first this time. I am very, very happy about this after being the absolute last person to choose last year. This does however pose a problem, can you have too much choice? I will let you know

Tom
