Conference
The first annual Journey2Med conference is a free widening participation event aimed at boosting students' knowledge for the application process and guide them on how to be strong applicants.
Session 1: Thinking of Applying
This event consisted of a morning "thinking of applying" session which answered all the information applicants may need to consider before applying, such as what life as a student and doctor is like.
Session 2: Smash the Application Process
This was followed by a "smash the application process" session that covered top tips on all the sections of the application process such as the UCAT, interviews and personal statement.
Session 3: Question and Answer Panel
To end the conference, there was a Q&A panel consisting of medical students, doctors and QMUL admission staff, as well as a speech from Professor Caulfield, Vice Principal of Barts and The London.
Our audience of students also consisted of young carers, those living in a geographical area with low levels of progression onto higher education and those currently or previously eligbile for pupil premium or free school meals.
