STr8bloke, I have considered the TA but I haven't got very far into looking at it. I'm worried that a TA commitment might see me in Afghanistan sooner then later and distracted from studying due to the training commitment as opposed to the cadetship where I am paid and left alone for 3 years.
If you had some info to hand for a TA med unit in London I'd be very grateful.
I don't have any info to hand, but a quick Googlesearch of "TA Medical Units London" should bring some up.
Afghan may not be everyone's cup of tea but it'll look good on your CV, bring your practical and management skills and will help if you end up working in a part of London that been ethnically complicated. You could also treat good people who really need it. I understand that TA med types can choose to do a 3 month tour, think of it as a better altermnative to some northern hospital!
Thanks very much everyone. There is much to think about![/QUOTE]
