@@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. After a certain time it's like being drunk.
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.
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.
@@reprep4821idk seems like a pretty simple solution. these people literally have to go to school for 5-7 years at least, deal with annoying and disrespectful patients, make decisions that could save someone’s life in a second. if anyone is getting a pay rise it should defo be them
@@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
As you have too much competition. Here competitive but not that competitive as other More higher paying possible degrees . Like maths from top university or economics can get you into high finance job i# London and make 4x medical salary
@@xcutepikaxboth a levels have the same requirements 4A*s, bare in mind this is the minimum you usually need around 5 to 6 to get in to the top med school from Hong Kong
Damn, I plan on going to uni to get a medical degree and my current grades are pretty similar to all of theirs, I’ll probably do ok, that’s relieving 💀👍
I did 4 (Biology, chemistry, physics and math). It's actually pretty common in my country to do 4 or 5 subjects. Grades were A*, A*, A and A. I know people who got better grades than me 😅 I also know people who had 1 A* and 2/3 As who didn't make it to medschool cuz the competition is tough
Me as an Indian-*totally confused about what is going on* We here have a exam which has mcq's and this year around 1800000 students are applying for it out of which only around 21000 will get selected
no wayyyy in hong kong you have to get at least 4 A*s to get into med school🥲tho i’m not taking A level🥹i’m taking HKDSE which is way harder than A level😭anyway wish y’all good luck!!
@@celestialknight2339 the regular grades are (were the system just changed to numbers) E to A, A being the best grade. You could ask to sit an additional question in the same exam, which gave you the * if you got everything right. So if someone sits three subjects, there’s three grades: A*, A and A. Which is final GPA of: 4.2 + 4.0 + 4.0 = 4.07 which doesn’t exist as the levels don’t line up exactly
@@Vonononie Thanks. It turns out it’s comparable to the Advanced Placement (AP) courses in America, which now makes sense to me… So what were YOUR A-grade levels? 😅 Lol
@@celestialknight2339 that sounds like it should be right as sitting the A* is an extra to the regular course. It was many decades ago when I sat my A levels, Computer Science was a new an exciting option, so I don’t think they are comparable with todays grades!
My child who is doing A-levels of medicine was thinking to become a doctor but after seeing this…I’ll ask him for what other courses he can do, because he did alright as he got 5s and 6s but he said he could have done better…but he somehow got to do A-levels but yeah hoping he will do well. 👍
You can still do Medicine with 5s and 6s - I recommend looking directly at the entry requirements of medical schools because they always have a minum grade requirement :)
@@SincerelyMayishayeah but if you want to go to medical In pakistan you MUST take biology chem and physics. Many take maths too. Otherwise you wont get admission.these subjects are compulsory.
@@chunkplunkcheck if you can apply for a contextual offer it depends on your parents income , where you live and other factors I can't remember basically they lower the grade boundary for you to A*AA To ABB so it's not too late!!
A level is equal to when u guys do ur pre med or whatever like we don’t have pre med after high school we go sixth form/college then by 18 we finish our a levels and then start university where we can just study the course like medicine
Ikrr yeah but if you want to go to medical In pakistan you MUST take biology chem and physics. Many take maths too. Otherwise you wont get admission.these subjects are compulsory.
Sir at 1:08:00 how will the examiner know whether I used a calculator or not. And let’s just say Allah na karay I forget the values in the exam, can I use the calculator as a last resort?
It just makes me so angry when I think about how much these doctors are earning for saving people’s lives, and then a footballer who just sits at the side of the pitch and earning millions. It is ridiculous
So an A is 100% so how can you get more than that,if you say extra credit that shouldn't count because that is not part of the curriculum so if I choose not to take the extra credit that counts against me
It's just the top grade in the English system. So it goes, A*, A, B, C. Think of it like A+ in the American system. I think it's actually been changed to a numeric system now, but could be wrong.
well i’m a GP i did my alevels in 2007, all i did to get my A’s was memorise the lecture notes series for bio chem etc. easy! i thought at the time it was easy but now it’s even easier because teacher just tell you what to revise. so yes i do know
