United Kingdom (UK) medical schools have decided to temporarily discontinue face-to-face teaching and clinical placements, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This has meant that medical students across the country are to study remotely and having no exams for a long period of time can seem strange to a group of people who are continuously assessed. As a current fourth-year medical student at the University of Exeter and a future medical practitioner, it is nevertheless important to appreciate that doctors have a duty of keeping their knowledge and skills up to date (GMC, 2019). This article will highlight the key ways medical students can spend their time productively during lockdown.
