Medical Student A-Level Grades 🩺

[@wishingonastar123]

Me as an Indian.. Even if you get full marks in school , you still have to write a highly competitive exam where only 1% students get selected 🥲

[@Quran-the-divine-guide]

I can fell u bro. Itz same for me😅😅

[@bikeland994]

Is that why so many Indian doctors go to America?

[@wishingonastar123]

@@amberdavis5311 In India as I said if you are part of that 1% you don't have to pay much fees..it is highly affordable. I guess med education is much expensive in America ..so lot of students go to countries like China, Georgia etc. But as they become medical professionals as the salary is more there, they migrate there

These are the people the current Tory government thinks should work a 60hr week for 30 thousand a year making life and death decisions. This is not a living wage for anyone and is a pathetic reward for years of study and debt accumulation. These young people are the cream of the crop and should be treasured. They are the future of UK healthcare and if I was one of them I would be seriously looking at options abroad. What a tragedy.

[@reprep4821]

It's very easy for us to say "just give everyone a pay rise", but economics doesnt work like that, a pay rise wont solve every single problem, every time the government does some interventions, the economy will show reactions, and those reactions could be bad. Plus, UK is not a small country that nobody knows, it's one of the largest economy on earth, every move of the UK government need to be carefully considered.

@@adr77510 yeah but their shifts go on for longer than they should, and medical school and learning and paying for it, is also a similar exhausting route. There should be a maximum of hours they are legally allowed to work, and forced to take breaks. The system is so messed up. Instead they're overworked and have to do a lot of overtime and get sick themselves from stress and exhaustion. Personally if I woukd need am operation id ask how long the Dr has been on shift for.
