    What can a GP do in the Army Reserves ?

    How does training with the army to be a biomedical scientist in the army work? Because it involves a degree does it mean you go to the uni and study there for the 3 academic years and do nothing with the army or do you live on an army base and study?

    Do Soldiers often become Officers? Do they train in role or would they need to go to Sandhurst?

    Hi @ Eleanor W, thank you for your question! You would complete your 14 weeks Basic Training prior to going to university, and then you would complete your BSc in Biomedical Science at the Royal College of Defence Medicine at Brimingham and Aston University.

    Hi Toby T, there are some questions about treatment of transgender personnel on pathmotion already if you have a search. I haven't got the specifics to hand at the moment so if you could have a search later you should be able to find the answer you need.
