The content was excellent in that it was very exam focused rather than focusing on unimportant details.After 5 years of medicine I finally understand hernias - thank you so much!

It was really good and helped to understand a lot of basic stuff. It was a really useful consolidation tool.This is not really provided at Liverpool, so it was really appreciated.

Very good speakers, particularly enjoyed the variation of teaching styles on the medicine day as it brokeup a long day more. Very good course material available. Good having a smaller group size as allowedmore interaction and good having tables to work on.

RR
Keele University
It is well organised however it is a bit hard to make it on time especially on Sunday when public transportis hard to get. The teaching are great however I would personally preferred to have the slides just beforethe teaching so that I can follow through with the teaching.

Good.
SM

Overall a very good course. Most lectures excellent. Some aspects overly emphasised like anatomy, key points would have been sufficient. Would have been nice to have longer lectures for the big 5 topics; gastro, neuro, cardio, resp, surgery. And then shorter lectures for some of the others.
Miss. Hayley King

Very good

Well done! Excellent course.
Miss.Sarah Hendrickx
Kuleuven
Very good, a bit too intense and long at times. Can't sit for three hours and fully concentrate - felt like I didn't get as much out of the day as I could have because just couldn't be as intensely involved all the time. But very good! Maybe one weekend medicine one weekend surgery could help.
Miss.Palbha Jain
University of Manchester
Well organized, concise
Miss.India Cecil-Oakes
Keele University
What liked most about the course was the way common knowledge was not simply regurgitated but rather key useful pieces of knowledge that I was previously not aware of was taught.
Miss.Hanan
University of Leicester
Great course, OSCE tips especially useful.
Mr.Alistair Farquharson
University of Manchester
Very good course as exam focused
Mr. Jack De Wolf
University of Manchester
Organisation and teaching were good overall. I thought the presentations on renal and endocrinology on the medicine day were very good and on the surgery day the presentation and teaching on vascular and neck lumps were the best.
Mr. Joseph Wattle

Very useful

Excellent course! Thanks

Many of the presentations were great, however it seemed some went over time and then the ones that were good did not have their full allocated time which was a shame. Organisation was fine. The subjects presented were relevant. Its a shame we ran out of time for the mock exam but glad that we have access to the slides.
Miss. Sommer Lang
University of Manchester
Course was organized well. Content in general was well prepared. Lots of effort was put into the day and this was clear. Thank you.
Mr. Akib Khan
University of Manchester
Really good course
Mr. Ben Probyn
University of Manchester
Overall, the sessions were very useful. I think that that pre-reading should be given more in advance for us to go through before the teaching days. I would go to other courses provided by Doctors Academy

Organisation, teaching: good Relevance: very good although there was limited time to cover the full syllabus.
Miss. Elke Vandendriessche

Was really good course. Good content.
Miss. Eve Wood

Good course, I'm glad that I attended.
Miss. Kristen Iverson
University of Manchester
Overall the course was very well run. We started on time, although ran over on both days, although there was a lot to get through and you did a good job of managing it within the time scale. Presentations and lecturers were overall very good, and feel that I left with a much better idea of what was required for the Manchester exam. There are some areas that I felt I wanted more detail but I have just highlighted them for my studies.
Miss. Emma Kellett
University of Manchester
The organization was great, with very good pre-course material. The information given during the day were all very pertinent and I have found the revision to be very useful to supplement my own. I would suggest for the gastroenterology lecture to cover more IBD or hepatitis, than to cover acute abdomen or gastic ulcers since it's a medical revision day not a surgical one.
Miss. Maggie Tseng
University of Manchester
Time keeping could have been better but overall a very valuable two days.
