As you may all be aware, the provisional exam timetable was released on Friday 4 March 2016. All Biomedical Science students undertake the following core modules Haematology and Transfusion Science, Clinical Chemistry, Cellular Pathology, Medical Microbiology and Clinical Immunology.

According to the timetable, the exams are due to take place on the 5th, 6th, 9th, 10th and 11th of May. This is a cause of great distress for us, as being third year students, we will be working on our dissertations till the 13th of April, not to mention the different assignments we will be submitting through the period coming up to the exam period, reducing the amount of time available for thorough revision to 2 weeks.

After speaking to some Biomedical Sciences students and consulting members of the teaching team we have decided to set up a petition, in order get a better-arranged timetable.

We would really appreciate it if you could take the time to sign the petition that will be made available to all students from Monday 7Th till Friday 11th March.

Please sign the petition only if you have NOT signed already signed the paper petitions that were available in the lectures and please include you first and surname when signing the petition. For your signature to be valid, please provide your name, surname and university ID number.

Thank you,
