Work Experience: Keep a Log!
During your work experience not only is it important to observe the different experiences you see but also to speak to doctors or dentists that you are shadowing.
Either whilst you’re there or after you placement keep a note of what you observed! You could keep this in on paper or notebook but sometimes the ideas get jotted down in a non-ordered way. When it comes to personal statement writing and interview preparation it will be difficult to decipher what you did and what you learnt.
