Product Description
Review
The book is an excellent resource. I would even go so far as to say, an essential read for those thinking of applying for medicine, medical students and junior doctors. The book is like that A-Z we all forgot to put in the car before a long journey. (Cambridge Medicine Journal )
My daughter and I would have found this compendium of enormous value during the difficult decision-making months, leading up to her medical school application. I will make sure she has a copy to guide her through the rest of her training. (Professor David Warrell, Senior Editor, Oxford Textbook of Medicine )

5 Stars: Useful and comprehensive - A must read for those considering a career in medicine
It has some good chapters on what is involved in applying to medical school, including a specific chapter on graduate medical courses. I found especially useful the chapter on medical ethics - a possible interview topic! Life during and after medical school is also mentioned, including an explanation of what MMC (Modernising Medical Careers) is. Also useful was the chapter on student finance - particularly information on bursaries and hardship funds. Overall it's an excellent guide.
5 Stars: An excellent book!
It is a great resource, which I can use now as a medical student and I am sure will use as a junior doctor. It is full of brilliant careers advice, which I have found valuable. It covers not only the obvious career path but also a number of alternatives. A must buy!
5 Stars: Covers everything
Easy it is to read - almost entertaining, definitely enjoyable.
5 Stars: An invaluable resource
This is a "must have" for the serious med school applicant. Easy to read, with chapters written by expert authors with specific knowledge of the topic in question. Gives advice on admissions, and on the structure and management of the medical profession. Well worth getting.

This review is from: A Career in Medicine: Do You Have What It Takes? (Paperback)
This is quite a comprehensive book about what it takes to be a doctor. It has some good chapters on what is involved in applying to medical school, including a specific chapter on graduate medical courses. I found especially useful the chapter on medical ethics - a possible interview topic! Life during and after medical school is also mentioned, including an explanation of what MMC (Modernising Medical Careers) is. Also useful was the chapter on student finance - particularly information on bursaries and hardship funds.Overall it's an excellent guide and, although this fact doesn't seem to be advertised in the book, I found out the other day that many of the authors can be contacted for further questions via the book's official website, www.acareerinmedicine.net
