Hey i got accepted to it, I was wondering if you did it too? Is it worth it in the long run. It seems like most people got accepted.

I am in year 12 I didn't apply for it though as i got accepted to another program but I know some year 13 who have they said its really beneficial as it provides support and also goes through the application process and works with current medical students
