Question 3

Why do you want to study here in Leicester?

Answer 3

I like that I get to learn loads of baseline knowledge the first couple years, and then I can integrate it into clinical skills after. I think I will be a lot more confident around patients if I can understand the reasoning behind their cases and academic side of it

I am a visual learner so the dissection sessions really appeal to me
