=== WikiVet Global Challenge ===
 +
The Veterinary Dentistry Challenge will end at 12.00 GMT on Monday 1st December 2015. So there is still time to have a go and stand the chance to win a great BSAVA Manual on Canine and Feline Dentistry. We are really excited to have had over 300 students take the Global Challenge from over 60 different veterinary schools. The results are fascinating and will help us identify areas that we need to provide more content to support teaching in veterinary dentistry.

=== Vet Revise ===
 +
This brilliant [[Vet_Revise|flash card program]] has been developed by Matthew Dobson, a 4th year veterinary student at the Royal Veterinary College. Vet Revise is a sophisticated flashcard program which uses the [http://ankisrs.net/ Anki system], which is a lot more efficient than traditional study methods. It not only greatly decreases your time spent studying but also increases the amount you learn. Matthew has recently been selected as a leading [http://elevator.jisc.ac.uk/sosi14/ideas/vet-revise-smarter-way-study Student Innovator] in the UK. The program has been developed for vet students and now includes over 80,000 flashcards. It has just been released for student use and we hope you will find it useful and inspire you to build and share your own card sets.
