i think he can be forgiven for jumping the gun a little, he is *supposed to be* 14 after all.

remember mate, it isnt all about w/e and grades - you can hardly empathise with a patient if you've barely lived and the medical admissions can tell if your a robot or not. don't skip your childhood coz your working flat out at GCSE - go out, make mistakes, learn from them and come back a better person, coz no one gives a **** how many A*'s you got when your telling them they have cancer.

I do not understand why everyone on this GD medicine forum are so rude and inconsiderate of people's feelings

Not everyone has been. Consider avoiding generalisations.

Get your GCSEs first

I was predicted straight A*s throughout years 10 and 11 and ended up getting 3. I was happy but it just shows how predictions are not a given and you need to work :wink:

Same here. I don't think it made the slightest bit of difference to my medicine application.

The vast majority of people are, I'm sorry to say. That's not to say you don't get the occasional person here who'll give you a straight answer, because there are :smile:
