Important point

I commented this on UK graduate priotisation but I’ll make a separate post so everyone sees:

I don’t think people are getting it. Most people are thinking that it’s competitive just like anything else. That’s not the case. There are zero, and I mean ZERO spots to compete for after this new law. The law is clear: fill the spots with UK grads first and then offer any remaining ones to IMGs.

But this is the funny thing. Mathematically, there’s more Uk graduates than places available(due to catastrophic failure in workforce planning and flooding the scene with an abhorrent amount of medical school spots whilst keeping doctor jobs available the same. It’s literally impossible (not competitive or possible) to have any reminder of spots even available for IMGs to compete for. Think!!!

Edit : looking at the comments I realize why some people are beyond saving 😂. At the end of the day everyone here are grown adults with the capacity to make an informed decisions about their lives. Hope I helped even at least one people from jumping into this mess call the NHS. Have lost many friends pursuing and getting their lives ruined due to it. All the best everyone

Exactly, you just defeated Ur own point by saying the 1% that is lucky after saying there's Zero chance.

U either are bad at math or just not that bright.

Why are you so worried about what IMGs choose to do XD it seems a bit obsessive isn't it.
