Year Guide: Second Year

General Tips

This is a continuation of the systems teaching, with hospital weeks after each block which are both enjoyable and useful. In year two you also have to take several “student selected components” (SSCs). There are many options to choose from learning a language to doing some dissection. But note after this year your term times change so that third year starts in September rather then in October.
