April Issue
A condensed newsletter issue packed full of notices, opportunities and exam tips!
🎉 Welcome Back!
Welcome back, BMP Network! It feels like such a long time since our last issue in March, and a lot has happened since then. We’re finally out of Lockdown and can outdoor dine (although the weather hasn’t always been ideal!), and generally, things appear to be going back to normal (fingers crossed).
This month’s issue is a condensed one as we are mindful that many of you all have exams coming up. With that being said, we’ve included some tips and resources that may help you in the run-up to any summer assessments! The next newsletter issue will be in June!
👀 Things to Look Out For!
With summer looming, there are loads of opportunities to work on summer schools or widening participation projects that your University may be running! Try to get in contact with your respective outreach staff or careers service for more on this.
Opportunities:

A couple of recommendations from me! The first one is for our medical students who may be fasting during this period (Ramadan Mubarak). Here’s a great video by That Medic, who drops his tips on how to study during Ramadan!Â
A personal recommendation would be to break up the day into chunks and take regular breaks to reflect.
For those of you who may be undertaking OSCEs as well as written exams, there’s a high-yield resource called OSCE Prep. More details are attached to the poster below:
Feel free to also look back out our previous issues, which are glittered with brilliant resources that can help you prepare for exams!
