Carla Verschueren's perseverance and determination paid off.
A woman from Glasgow is on the way to fulfilling her dream of becoming a doctor after landing a prestigious place to study medicine on the fourth time trying.
She said: “I’m so happy. I had just finished a degree in Immunology and received my third unsuccessful application to study medicine when a friend told me that SMC were recruiting for a Public Partner and I should have a think about it. "Ultimately I think it has really made the difference in making my application to study medicine stand out this time.
The role involves attending the SMC monthly decision-making meetings as part of the voting committee that decides on the availability of new medicines in Scotland. “I was able to reflect on what I’ve learned with SMC in my interview to study medicine and I’ve got no doubt the experience I’ve had in the role has been hugely beneficial for me.”
