Medical Students

An Invitation to learn about a career in General Practice 

In 2010 career information seminars will be held around Australia for medical students. The seminars will be organised by General Practice Student Network (GPSN) representatives at 20 universities around the country. These seminars will inform you about the career and lifestyle benefits of an exciting, flexible and team-based medical specialty.

Learn about the selection process for the Australian General Practice Training program and meet GPs and registrars, who will talk about their experiences working in general practice and answer your questions.

For details regarding these career information seminars visit the GPSN website at www.gpsn.org.au and click on the 'Events' tab.

Detailed information regarding the Australian General Practice Training program is also available in our 2010 AGPT Handbook

Have you heard about the AMSA 'Get a GP' Campaign? 'Get a GP' is designed to encourage medical students to take care of their own health, consult a GP and avoid self diagnosing. For a list of GPs in your area who are willing to bulk bill medical students and to view an eye-opening and entertaining video go to the AMSA website .
