6 years ago, when I got an offer for medical school, I was told I’d have a job for life.

Weekly, I hear of people that can’t get doctors appointments, or two year waitlists.

Doctors in their thousands are getting rejected for jobs, and today I was one of them. A 🧵.

‘Getting into medicine is the hardest part’

Tell that to the thousands of qualified doctors being rejected for jobs up and down the country.

This is nothing short of a national scandal, whilst the government keep telling you there is a shortage of doctors.

Someone explain to me MSRA scores? I can’t work it out.

Also, what kind of score was needed to get an interview for anaesthetics % wise?

Please all give me your best tips. I’ve apparently got less than 1.5 months to prepare for this thing. (Also how do I get extra time?)

Going to reintroduce myself. I’m Eilidh, pronounced ay-lee. I’m an NHS doctor (FY2) and I’m pissed off that pretty much every public service isn’t fulfilling its purpose. I’m angry about the NHS, police, education, and much more. Sometimes I rant pointlessly, sometimes I rant and get change.
