Welcome to the website of the Royal Medical Society. The society is run by medical students for medical students at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland.
Tutorial Notes
Any exam tutorial notes provided to us by the tutors are available in the tutorial resources section.
The society hosts a number of lectures, tutorials and social events throughout the year. Our premises are located in Potterrow in Bristo Square and contain our computer room, library, clinical skills room, lecture room and lounge. Members have 24 hour access to the facilities mid-week and access from 8am to midnight at the weekends.
A list of events for the 2015-16 academic year is available in the syllabus. A 280th session syllabus will be available soon.
