    Wink I Got A Place At A UK Medical School!

    Hey guys, I don't mean to brag or anything - it's just that I feel soo proud of myself knowing that there are only a handful of Filipino doctors working here in the UK, and being a Filipino student in the UK and been trying for 4 years to get into a medical school I finally got a conditional offer to start this coming september 2010

    *virtual party*
    *invited everyone*

    God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, the courage to change the things i can and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people i had to kill because they pissed me off.

    Hehehehehe....*signs you up*. Nah, noone needs Botox on this forum. Not 'till I get the licence to practice anyways.

    And the course I want to do at Perth is their 1 year Pathway To Medicine HNC course. It's kind of my back-up (but hopefully I won't be needing it).

    If she obtained her primary medical qualification in the Philippines then she should be one of the 99 fili-docs. Good on her.

    Congratulations ! I'm just catching up on threads after visiting Philippines.
    You MAY become a plastic surgeon, but I am willing to bet that you will enjoy many subjects in your course, keep an open mind and your final specialty may be something completely different!
