A shocking experience with dentistry/medicine students!!

Yep.

BTW, is that one of the duchesses of Russia?

Yes! It's Maria.

I wish that was the case.

I have no sympathies for aptitude tests such as UKCAT if that's the strenuous extent to which you're implying. The same is necessary for other degrees i.e. Law.

Tatiana is my favourite. She's gorgeous!

They're all so beautiful. I have a slight obsession with them. Olga's my favourite I love the pics of her with Tatiana.

Joke's on them anyway. If they're anything like my parents (doctors), they'll work themselves to the bone and get caught up in the rat race, envying people who earn more than them and even people who get less (people in less stressful jobs and benefit claimants) never having much fun, then retire at 60 with all their youth gone and die.

Obviously the lot of many people isn't much better, and they retire at 67 now. But of all the lives you could choose, there are many that are better and more attainable than that of a doctor (though obviously for some people, perhaps being a doctor is the thing for them)

Their lives aren't that great. There are over 100,000 doctors in the UK, and at least 90,000 don't really stand out.

So it's obviously not as simple as "AAA and you're in" then...

Olga's beautiful as well. But she had somewhat of a large forehead

She looked sad all the time though. Tatiana looked angry all the time

Haha, why is this such a shock? It is a fact that medicine students look down on others and consider their course to be superior. It is an incredibly elitist course and universities like Cambridge and Oxford sustain the elitism in the UK education system. It is even evident on this website. Personally I don't understand the desire to study at either.

I was just at a family party and there were a number of medicine/dentistry students. i was talking to them about other degrees apart from dentistry and medicine and I was talking about bio-medicine pharmacy, optometry and some other courses. They all started laughing and said those courses are for rejects of medicine/dentistry. They said they often use their degree as a way to pick up girls too! I even heard about them saying that some of the students would bully the bio-med and pharmacy students calling them rejects.
They genuinely considered all these other degrees 'below' them, I really hope I dont turn into one of these guys because Im really considering medicine/dentistry

I always wondered why Med students are so hot for themselves.
Being a MD or a Dentist is hardly meritocratic prestige anymore, just like a lot of degrees it requires AAA and you're in.

Don't be offended, there are always people who like to think they are better and talk down as such.

Even UCAS reinforces the idea
October 15 - medicine/dentistry/vetmed and oxbridge
