The course I am on is a 3 years full time degree course.
Started in Feb and finshes Feb 2010
We have 5 week blocks of placement with 5 week blocks of uni. And six weeks off over the academic year. 2 at Christmas, 2 Easter and 4 in the summer. They also add on reading weeks to holidays too, which is nice.
Most of us started with 2 5 week blocks of community placements, those that were hopsital based are now in community. We will have this placement and another in the new year and then we are second years
After this we have general medical placements a week in each area (obs and gynae, general, etc)
End of third year we get our own caseload, this has just been decided so we finish on ten weeks of community!!!
I think that's it!
