Hii Doc Andy 💖I'm a 10th grade student who has been in love with medicine for as long as I can remember but since the beginning of this year ayy shame at some point with both mathematics and physical sciences I thought about giving it up mainly because I feel like I'm the only person who believes in my dream as much as I do. All I've been wanting is just some help like actual practical help that I can implement in real life so that I can really pick up my slack and start doing better (which by the way miraculously this previous term,term 3 I did really well and it was unexpected but really lifted my spirits and I'm starting to believe in myself a whole lot more and I am hoping that maybe whatever I did right last term I can repeat and do even better this term).Anyway I was hoping if you could give some advice on how I can really stand my ground and work harder so long as its smarter as well and hopefully atleast get into UKZN.Thank you 💖

I'm Happiness I wrote my matric last year, but I missed my last paper which was English FAL p3 as I was in hospital. My statement came out incomplete, there was no results for English. They said I'll write on June this year. So I applied for medicine to many institutions, how am I going to upload my results for June as they'll be released on August and the applications for medicine will be closed. Is it possible for me to be accepted for medicine In 2024

Hi Andiswa, Please help me . I applied for medicine at wits using my qualifications. Hope you know GEMP . So they considered my application and I was supposed to seat for additional placement test this week, however I couldn't write the test because I didn't see the email notifying me about the test because I lost my devices a couple of weeks. does missing this test necessarily mean It's the death of dream ??😢😢

[@BecomingDrAndy]

Hi, I suggest you contact them ASAP, that is the test you need to qualify, if you missed it, you might have to reapply. I’m so sorry that happened

Hey would you advise someone who was doing IsiZulu or generally someone who speaks Zulu to come to UCT because I have been worried of the Afrikaans and Xhosa modules 🙂especially Xhosa like I don't know 🙂

[@nhloniphosonoma3522]

But I really like UCT by the ways been always been my dream to come there

Most people who go to UCT don’t Speak Xhosa and Afrikaans , it’s really not gonna be the most challenging thing you face.
