Grumpy Biomed: Acceptance Afternoon
http://grumpybiomed.blogspot.com/2012/07/acceptance-afternoon.html
Wednesday, 4 July 2012. Currently listening to: Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five. Paul McCartney and Wings. I must say, there is nothing quite as nerve-wracking as walking into a room filled with a hundred strangers who are all chatting.and you're alone and looking flustered as your bus turned up later than you expected. Very nerve-wracking indeed.my initial thought was, "how do they all know eachother? As a medical student! The next time I go back will be in the first week of September when I officially...

Grumpy Biomed: August 2011
http://grumpybiomed.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 31 August 2011. The inevitable "where the hell should I apply? Currently listening to: Ocean Drive. As forecasted by Tofu. 8221; Which probably means I'm a pessimistic optimist and therefore not really an optimist at all. But no matter since I got 697.5 in my UKCAT which would have been above last years cut-offs for most places, so now I finally feel like I can make this post without it just being pointless talk. I've written what they're looking for, but how do I really know? Barts and The Lo...

Grumpy Biomed: June 2012
http://grumpybiomed.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, 30 June 2012. Student Finance, please do your job. Currently listening to: She's a Rainbow. It's really quite worrying that year on year a government department manages to screw up by assessing people incorrectly or paying them late and nothing is done about it. Why does this happen? So, to get away from the rant, I am including some links below which may be of some use to graduate medics and dentsists in need of evidence of our entitlement to funding:. Official Dept of Health letter:. Know you...

Tuesday, 28 August 2012. Wow, who'd have thought I'd get writer's block over the final entry on this blog? I certainly didn't, I thought it would be the easiest thing in the world to write, but believe it or not I've been putting this post off for weeks now, and now that I'm actually writing it, it's only after four or five drafts and abandoned attempts! So if you're interested in following my journey through med school, please follow me HERE. Blog won't be updated any longer). 1 September 2012 at 12:59.

Grumpy Biomed: July 2012
http://grumpybiomed.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, 28 July 2012. Grumpy Biomed's inspiration: a long overdue thank you. Currently listening to: The Universal. So, why did I get into blogging a few years back? But there is one other reason too. As it happened, "MS" got a first and ended up studying medicine at Barts and The London where he is now (presumably) about to go into fourth year.but unfortunately he deleted all his old posts (which were here. Wednesday, 4 July 2012. Currently listening to: Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five. I must say, t...

http://grumpybiomed.blogspot.com/2012/06/olive-branch.html
Sunday, 10 June 2012. Currently listening to: Sea of Heartbreak. However, fortunately, this time last year I got a 2:1 for my degree, and then two months later did well in my UKCAT.

Grumpy Biomed: To Warwick
http://grumpybiomed.blogspot.com/2012/03/to-warwick.html
Monday, 19 March 2012. Currently listening to: Touch Me. Short version: I'm amazingly happy, it's slowly beginning to sink in that come September I'm going to be a medical student at Warwick! My precise reaction to this? The decision as to where I'm headed next September is therefore very easy to make. Because of the fact that GEPs are shorter and come with tuition fee loans and A100 degrees don't, I'm off to Warwick. Got into BL and can. 19 March 2012 at 18:49. Well done again grumpy! That is a big cong...

Grumpy Biomed: October 2011
http://grumpybiomed.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Friday, 28 October 2011. The god's honest truth about being a scientist. Currently listening to: Charmless Man. By night I may be a med school applicant obsessively scouring NMM for new info (nyet), but by day I'm just another lowly postgrad trying to make it through my MSc. Earlier today I stumbled upon this image which I think sums up life and relationships in science and academia very well indeed.current and ex science students will probably appreciate just how true it is:.
