does the med university matter? (okay dumb question)

what i mean is, what difference does it make when a undergrad unsw leaves uni in six years, as opposed to an undergrad uws leaves uni?

None apart from your ego.

I was reading the UWS website and it seems they're seaking people who will be simulated patients.
I would do it depending on the pay rate.

its decent.. the pay is.. but u may be barred from the course for a while.. normally actors take it.. we are good friends with our SPs they are very good since we start to train them.

and BTW have u ever read a NEJM article in ur life?.. cos frankly the BMJ xmas one shits all over it :p

yeah... i read NEJM :rofl: ,
seriously though I read it mainly because they go into greater detail when discussing chemical reactions, molecular acitivty etc in regards to disease-the print is more microbiolgy inspired I think, although it does include its clinical scenarios...
ill admit though, i find myself referring to the medical dictionary most of the time...
studentbmj eh? i've read past articles but nothing new.. ill check it out
AFP ftw, i'll check that out 2

oh no not student BMJ lolz real BMJ..

NEJM is just sooo dry..i like their case studies tho.. they are more interesting.. NEJM has alot of obscure things in its molecular papers like things that arent very common but the PIcs are good.. BMJ's ABC series of ECG, GI diseases.. these are extremely good tutorials

... and btw lottoX i have a subscription to AFP and its actually very good;)

it depends I use it for the reviews.. depends on what it is.. clinical reasoning is one of the high points.. that is kinda lacking in other things... always read the next months errata for the AFP and any article... the letter are so important to get a good idea..

but then im also a big fan of UTD
