Amreeta Hothi

I am a dedicated and enthusiastic student at the University of Birmingham, where I am pursuing a degree in Biomedical Science. This allows me to explore the complexities of the human body and the science behind health and disease.

Beyond academics, I am deeply passionate about football. I proudly play for the University of Birmingham’s team and serve as the vice-captain. This leadership role has helped me develop strong communication skills and the ability to inspire and lead my teammates. It has taught me the importance of teamwork, perseverance, and strategic thinking.

In addition to football, I am an active member of the MedSoc Society at the university. This involvement has broadened my understanding of the medical field and provided opportunities to engage with peers and professionals who share my interests. Through MedSoc, I have participated in various events and initiatives that have enhanced my academic and personal growth.

I consider myself to be tenacious and  willing to do whatever it takes to achieve my goals. I pride myself on being a keen communicator, approachable, and always ready to assist others. Problem-solving is one of my key strengths; I enjoy analysing challenges and finding effective solutions. I am committed to pushing boundaries, overcoming challenges and helping those adequately and effectively.
