The competition was held on May 21-22 at the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn. Our university was represented by three second-year students of the Faculty of Medicine - Wiktoria Kosiorowska, Agata Cymba and Jakub Brzezik.
How the competition went
The competition was held in two categories: individual and team. The individual competition began with a test. It consisted of 100 single-choice questions with five possible answers, of which only one was correct. The 10 participants, who wrote the test best, moved on to the next stage. In the second stage, they were given 10 short yes/no questions. It was in this competition that our student Wiktoria Kosiorowska won second place.
There was also a team competition. The MUW team consisted of: Wiktoria Kosiorowska, Agata Cymba and Jakub Brzezik. At this stage, the skills of analyzing knowledge of human physiology in simulated clinical conditions were evaluated. Each team at four stations in the Medical Simulation Center analyzed clinical cases and answered additional questions.
The good fortune continues
It is worth recalling that this is the third consecutive edition of this prestigious competition, in which our students are among the winners. They were prepared for the struggles of the competition in the Department of Experimental and Clinical Physiology MUW by Dr. Michał Kowara. Substantive and didactic supervision of the team was provided by Prof. Agnieszka Cudnoch-Jędrzejewska and Dr. Liana Puchalska.
