title: Insight of first-year medical students into their future working conditions.
abstract: In the light of recent publicity in the media, and a Private Members Bill in the Houses of Parliament, a multiple choice questionnaire was designed to ascertain the insight of first-year medical students at Leicester Medical School into their career structure and future working conditions. The results obtained were surprising in that they indicated an almost total lack of knowledge among the medical students about the profession into which they had just entered, and to which they had made a lifelong commitment.
