Answering your questions about graduate medicine. From applying to medicine in Ireland to finding accommodation and managing your time, I'm covering all things GEMs.
Questions and their timestamps:
1:03 Are internships only in hospitals affiliated with UL or is there the option of others like UHG etc?
2:18 Is it hard to keep up with the course material? / Is it difficult to know how much or what to study since it’s a minimally didactic course?
4:22 Are you getting back into KZread??
5:07 How do you know if PBL will work for you before you make your choice?
6:24 Are practical skills labs enjoyable?
7:11 Sitting the GAMSAT in September, I don’t feel prepared at all. Any advice?
9:05 Can you work abroad immediately after finishing the degree or do you have to stay in Ireland to begin with?
10:53 Why did I do it?
11:18 Does the order of preference you choose for Irish medical schools impact your chances of admission?
14:10 Is it hard to find accommodation in Limerick on or off campus?
15:43 What is your experience of UL as a graduate student? Is it easy to make friends and are there many social events? What is the average age on the GEM course/ can Gem students join sports clubs and teams?
17:44 Limerick - I’ve heard it’s the rainiest place in Ireland. Is the weather really depressing? Does it rain all the time?
18:40 For GEMs, what are the average contact hours a week and what are the holidays in a year?
20:42 Is it possible to hold down a job whilst studying?
22:29 Does the university help facilitate getting internships outside of Ireland?
