Being disabled, passing the pre-reg exam, dropped out uni twice, ask me anything!
Hey guys, as the title explains, I have a disability called achondroplasia (less preferred term is dwarfism or little people), I applied to uni twice (failing 1st year in each attempt), worked in KFC for 1.5 years, then reapplied to do pharmacy again on 3rd attempt.
Finally qualified as a pharmacist in December, please ask me anything.

Nice / well done mate! Glad to see you overcame difficulties to be a pharmacist.
My questions are :
1) what sector are you currently in?
2) career plans?
3) your views on health Secretary trying to make antimicrobial otc?

Firstly Congrats!
Secondly, how did you get past the failing element for the degree, like I failed my 1st attempt exam in 1st year, got back and passed it in order to get to second year. But the idea that it can happen again stays with me, so I never truly enjoy the exam season because of that fear. So seeing as you've experienced that but gone onto passing it all and now ultimately qualifying, how do you get yourself back up and succeed?

Are question banks useful for revision and if you used them when did you start?
Also did you change up your revision closer to the exam.
Thanks!
