London.

The authorities at the Women's Medical School strongly advise students
to take a degree, and that the best open to them, namely, in Great
Britain, that of London for the south, or one of the good Scottish
Universities for the north. Their reason for this advice is that they
feel that it is extremely important that medical women should rank as
high as possible in their profession.

At London University there are no sex restrictions. A woman is
eligible not only to take the examinations on equal terms with a man,
but all the rights and honours (except, of course, the Parliamentary
vote) are also open to her. Women may vote for and sit upon the
Senate, become members of Convocation and take any of the exhibitions,
medals, or scholarships which are offered to candidates at
examinations. For this reason women feel attached and like to belong
to the London University, and to do it honour.

Having decided which qualification she wishes to take, the candidate
applies to be entered as a medical student at a definite school. If
she elects to work in _London_ she must follow the course of study
at the Royal Free Hospital School of Medicine for Women at 8 Hunter
Street, Brunswick Square.

At _Glasgow_ the students are all entered at the Women's College
(Queen Margaret's). The medical course is taken in conjunction with
men students. At the Royal Infirmary some wards are open to women for
clinical instruction.

At _Dublin_ the students are admitted to the degrees and diplomas
in medicine, surgery, and midwifery on the same conditions as men.
A special anatomical department with dissecting room, etc., has been
erected by the Board of Trinity College for them.

At _Edinburgh_ the arrangements for women students are largely
separate from those for the men. The degrees are open to them.

At _Durham_ the degrees are open to women, and most of their work is
done with the men.

The same applies to _Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham,_ and
_Sheffield_.

The course takes from five to six years, but it is wise to allow the
longer time. The preliminary examination in general subjects is taken
before admission to the medical school. After this, the first year
at the medical school is spent in scientific study, such as Biology,
Inorganic Chemistry, etc. Having passed her first scientific
examination, the student proceeds to the study of the human
individual, and deals for the next two years with Anatomy, which
includ
