Medicine (UG): Phase 1c Academic Representative

I want to ensure that our concerns about teaching, placements, and exams are properly addressed. We all know how important it is to have our voices heard, and I’m committed to ensuring that happens. I want to focus on gathering feedback from everyone and turning it into practical solutions. Whether it's improving modules, placements, or exam prep, I want to push for changes that will genuinely benefit us all. I’ll meet with module leads before SSLG meetings to propose realistic solutions and work with them to see what can be done.

I also think it's important to keep everyone in the loop. After every meeting, I’ll make sure you’re updated on the outcomes and the steps being taken to address our concerns. If there’s anything that needs following up, I’ll handle it and keep you informed.

Being an Academic Rep also means guiding people to the right resources, whether it’s academic or welfare support. I’ll make sure you know where to find help when you need it and will always be available if you want to raise any issues.

This role requires commitment, and I’m ready to put in the effort needed to make Year 3 run as smoothly as possible. If you want someone who will represent you effectively and push for real change, I’d appreciate your vote.
