Hi, I'm a first-year medical student at Bangor University, and although I didn't initially plan to come here, I am so grateful to receive an offer through clearing, as it not only enabled me to study medicine, it also allowed me to study in a picturesque setting - surrounded by the mountains of Snowdonia and the many surrounding beaches of Anglesey and Llandudno - which ensure that there is always something exciting to do outdoors. I'm also really into running, and there is nothing quite like going for a jog surrounded by the beautiful coastal and mountain views that make this place so special. Outside of my degree, there are plenty of opportunities to get involved, and I'm currently the BMA representative for the North Wales Medical School.

Kamila
University of Essex
Speech and Language Therapy
Hello :) my name is Kamila, and I am a second year master's student at the University of Essex, studying Speech and language Therapy. I come from Slovakia, however I completed my secondary education here in the UK. During my undergraduate studies in BA English Linguistics, I have been introduced to the module of clinical linguistics, in which I learnt about speech and language therapy. Since then I have been determined to become a paediatric speech and language therapist, as it will allow me to help and advocate for children with speech and language difficulties. My particular interest is in bilingual and multilingual children. I am enjoying my course, as I am able to learn many new skills, and put them into practice during various placements.
I believe that the social life at Essex exceeds most universities in the UK. Thanks to its diversity, you will be able to join various societies depending on your hobbies and interests. This year, I am a vice-president of the Speech and Language Therapy Society. As a society we offer a variety of events, including guest speakers, revision sessions, social events, and our favourite annual summer ball! I am also a member of the Essex Blades Dance competition team, and I am really looking forward to the upcoming competition season.
If you have any questions about life at Essex, Speech and Language Therapy course, or any of the societies, do not hesitate to reach out! :)
