Surviving Med Night

Surviving Med Night consists of workshops conducted by second year students to help incoming first year students acclimatise to medical school at UNE.  Rather than providing academic content, senior students discuss their experiences navigating the challenges of starting medical school and provide tips on various areas of medical student life. Students are also introduced to UNE’s medical societies and the events they are holding throughout the year.

The night starts off with a barbecue in the medicine courtyard and a short talk in the lecture theatre introducing sponsors. We then move to the PBL rooms, learn about about surviving PBLs, study-life balance and are introduced to UNE’s many med clubs and our plans for the year’s academic and social events!
