    Its great that you are confident and all, and good on you.
    But just because you have a million a's and high numbers under your belt does not mean you will get into medical school.
    It takes more than a brainiac to be a good doctor.


    ''These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the World ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world'' John 16 v 33.

    arrrgh!!

    Are you on a one idiot mission to piss off, disillusion and affront everyone on this forum??

    I have only read a few sentences by you and I cant think of anyone I think would make a worse doctor. I really hope that interviewers see past your grades. Would you talk to patients with the same level of arrogance?

    Your grades are good and all but that doesn't gauruantee anything. Sure you've most definitely have the academic part of your application ticked but how about the other parts?

    Personally, I know someone who has 5 A's in A-level and no offers. Another two with 4 A's and no offer.

    EDIT: Great UKCAT score by the way.

    Doctor Tony made some decent posts last time I checked, but I guess I must've missed something.
