Barking and Dagenham (Virtual) Aspiring Medic's Day

“I had so SO much fun!! I really loved the entire lecture and was not bored anyway through it. I really loved the start when were answering questions and I was able to try that interview in real life. I feel like it was really really nice and It was so good as just a learn as you go thing. Everyone was enthusiastic and I loved it.”- Student and webinar attendee

“I am extremely happy for having the opportunity to be able to hear from real life applicants and I think it's great what TAMS is doing by helping everyone, It's perfect!!!”- Student and webinar attendee

“Please continue to do further events like this, I loved it :)”- Student and webinar attendee

On the 13th February 2021, The Aspiring Medic’s Support hosted the very first borough wide virtual aspiring medics day. With over 40 students from around the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, we had a great time filled with talks and workshops from medical students, doctors and a dentist.

Whilst we would have loved to host this event in-person, this was truly the next best thing!

Students were incredibly engaging and had the opportunity to ask questions in interactive breakout rooms. The feedback from attendees was overwhelmingly positive as students expressed that they felt more informed and prepare for the medical school application process.

The day was truly a success and we look forward to hosting more Virtual Aspiring Medics Days.
