Hello - as a first year medical student how did you make notes ? Im starting this year and really need some help? should i do them on notability and import them into notion ? please help super confused
Hello, I took my notes mainly on notion directly for the start of the year and then I would import to anki, but then 1/3 of the way in I started just using anki straight away and making flashcards during the lectures. For goodnotes, I only used it while I was going through my anki for e.g., if I felt like I needed to write a short summary of something or if I kept forgetting it then I just write it in goodnotes so it wasn’t my main note source tbh
@@luluhalim thank you so much ! im starting at kcl soon - did you take notes from your lectures or are there any other resources that are good to use for 1st years? i've heard of a few like lecturio and passmed etc - what do you think is best ? And also did you make the flashcards from your lectures slides from uni too? thank you sm x
@@sue9302 aa congratulations!! I mainly made the flashcards only from my lecture slides / anatomy practicals etc., so basically from the resources the uni gave. However closer to exam time I started using question banks like passmed and quesmed etc. ps. I did watch quite a few youtube videos as well to explain certain topics so sometimes i would make anki on those
Heya for me I excluded unis that mentioned anything about band 3 being rejected etc., most unis only rejected band 4 so that should be fine. I applied to Barts, Southampton, Bristol and Newcastle and went with barts. In terms of your score, perhaps look into unis that have a low entry requirement for the UCAT or maybe think about investing into the bmat and doing it instead.
