GEP Medicine in Society Handbook 2019/20

6. Assessment

In Primary Care students will be assessed on their attitude and application and their completion of a learning log.  (70% of total marks)

In secondary care they will be assessed on their case presentation. (30% of total marks)

Attendance

Student attendance is recorded at each placement. Tutors must inform us at the time of any non-attendance.

Any student unable to attend must submit an self certificate form to the University.

There may be occasions during the year when students have an in-course assessment exam on the Friday after a MedSoc day; these exams contribute only in a relatively small way to the students’ end of year marks. Students must attend their placement as usual. If tutors have any concerns about a student’s attendance, behaviour, health etc. they should contact the unit convenor as soon as possible.
