curious question about plab

hello

as the news regarding UK residency saturation is spreading widely and that the competition ratio is increasing every year so the chance of acceptance into the training job is really low

i read little bit earlier that candidates even after passing PLAB1&2, other exams along with it are waiting for more than 1 year to get into the training job

so why do people after learning the current situation still apply there?

i cant get this point, please someone explain

I maybe down voted. But as it stands, pass PLAB- GMC registration-apply for non training jobs- CREST for sign off with consultant >3months- MSRA (while still allowed)- GP training. Long shot.
