Question: A level notes at uni?

Just wondering if anyone could help me with this: should you keep any bio / chem A level notes if you're off to med. school or is this not necessary? thanks xxx

You might want to keep them for sentimental value...

haha my piece of paper with my results from learning from all of those notes is the only sentiment I need so I take it you're a current med student, what year are u in? I wasn't sure about chucking out all those notes as I read somewhere it could be useful but I didn't really relish the idea of trawling through my scribbles from months ago, so figured I'd check with people who're already at med school! xxx

I'm at Birmingham so my course will be different, but generally, what you did at A level you will know anyway and it will form only a very tiny part of what you do in your first year, so it's just not worth bringing your notes. Especially since your room in halls probably won't be massive so you don't want to clutter it with what you won't use. And you can always use a textbook (or wikipedia) if you need to...
