September 2009 - Teaching

[Aitch]

Hey all...

Just wondering, has it been decided, written, set in stone...where the freshers shall be be for the Medical teaching? Is all of it going to be in Foresterhill or here and there between King's and Foresterhill?

Thanks in advance!

Oh - anyone got time tables in joiners packs?

Hey Aitch,

The timetable for Phase I is still not up online, so I can't say for sure, but... I presume most of your teaching will take place in Foresterhill (specifically, in the new Matthew Hay building - which is taking the role Marischal College had last year, i.e. anatomy teaching and majority of your lectures should be given there). You may end up spending one full day of teaching per week in King's college campus, but I'd say one day is all you can hope for (if you're worried about long walking distance from Hilly, that is ). There will be some GP clinics visits during either 1st or 2nd semester, too, but they're quite infrequent, therefore not likely 2 cause a great disturbance in the timetable.

I think it must be the same for all of us to be fair, but at this moment in time the feeling of absolutely sh*tting myself is slowly beginning to outweigh that excitement.
