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 and common pitfalls of starting medical school. 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 medical indemnity insurance 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!
