tiffin girls 一 A Level 学医,报考的大学。

英国学医竞争激烈。以前在别的国家工作过。同事说她们当年学医也是竞争激烈,但是拼的是运气。抓阄决定的。都qualified的学生拼运气。

感觉像是巫医。 {:5_142:}

报也报了,只有祝福了。

医科8年,早就离开医疗系统。女儿小时候(虽然现在也不大)也说要做doctor,我都尽量在家避免这个话题。
如果是我的孩子,更倾向于选择就业面更广的专业,毕竟20岁不到的孩子选择一生的职业还太早。
医生起薪哪里都不高,当年我报医科,父母也觉得是一个是一个端到老的铁饭碗,让我慢慢熬。现在再回头看,当年成绩最好的那些同学,还在系统的,基本在晋升这事上都还在熬。工作和兴趣是两码事。读medical只是个起点,将来定科,你的老板,同事,团队阶梯都大大影响你的pay。女孩子,还有家庭孩子,女同事产假只休6周就回来上班是majority。楼主送孩子医科,就要做个strong的外公外婆,做半个妈。
当年学医的经历,更能保护家人,尤其在英国,哈哈

小孩自愿选择。艰苦的道路,磨砺意志,各种困难,自己想办法面对。
当然,我们会尽量提供力所能及的帮助,在任何方面。

现在,起码她敢于面对激烈的竞争,我觉得勇气可嘉,比较欣慰。

总之人生没有捷径。。。

楼主希望女儿将来当GP不太辛苦了,还是希望当consultant,甚至是surgeon?

话说在英国当consultant会很辛苦吗?指的是稳定了以后,不包括当见习的那几年。

我觉得你们女儿ucl的offer绝对没有问题,interview的通知很快就会来的,Cambridge的话和其它申请人一样需要一些luck。

当医生当然是得当surgeon啊,特别是胸外科,咔咔咔就把这心脏打开了,再咔咔咔缝上,多么romantic啊。 {:5_142:}

根据龙哥这个图 做gp也不算太耗时间和难啊

五年大学 两年基础 三年gp培训一共10年
18岁读大学 28岁可以做到了

那gp感觉比医院医生舒服多了 收入也可以 也不辛苦 我看就和上班差不多 也看不死病人 越老越值钱的感觉

是我哪里理解错了嘛 倒是当医生那条路看起很辛苦

我朋友是GP,也是两个孩子的妈妈。感觉GP也很辛苦的,不看病的时候也很多paper work.晚上在家都经常赶工。选的工作诊所还不能离家太近,不然,去学校参加活动的时候,就会发现好多家长都是她的病人。感觉很awkward。当医生还是挺好的,很懂饮食,会保养健康,一家老小都好安心的感觉。收入也还不错。我儿子就想当急救医生,哪儿见血,哪儿就有他,忙得不用回家那种。

谢谢龙哥的吉言!

这月15日送去UCAS,顺利的话,大概什么时候会有面试通知呢?起码前面2个学校要等到BMAT出成绩吧。
谢谢。

要我选择,肯定是做surgeon了。

最后上台,无影灯下,咔咔咔咔,
手套一甩,立马走人。。
很爽,很牛

Cambridge的学生12月1号那个星期六得离开college的宿舍,腾房间给interview的人住,所以interview应该是12月的头两个星期,offer是过完新年的第一个星期。

UCL的医学不清楚,但其它专业offer是12月就给了。

龙哥,我查了一下,一般都是12月初开始面试,最晚到三月才结束。
会提前1到2周通知面试。

Cambridge的面试都是12月份,offer都在新年以后第一个星期,因为录取上宁缺毋滥,第一轮结束以后一些college没有录满,那他们会从“pool”里面挑一些学生或者直接offer或者邀请学生再去interview,这就是为什么interview会拖到3月,pool就是那些面试表现好但申请的college已经录满的学生。

我觉得oxford的录取系统更科学一些,申请以后学校把申请人数在college之间平衡一些让每个college的interview人数和录取人数比例基本一致,interview是2到3天,在第一个college两次第二个college一次,offer可能是第一个college,或者第二个college,也可能第三个college,还可能是无college(A level出来以后才分college),一次性interview都搞完了。

谢谢龙哥。
一个接一个的面试(希望越多越好 {:5_141:} ),一直要搞到明年3月,中间还要上课,明年5月A LEVEL开考,还有part-time工作。。。
孩子有的累了,希望她能够合理安排时间。。。

She only has 3 A levels to do, some other pupils have 4 or 5 or more. {:5_139:}

大学不要求,为什么要学?
小孩学校是不建议多学的。
有些势力一如既往,把小孩搞得太辛苦。。。

If I remember correctly, many Tiffin girls have 4 A levels because they take mathematics exam one year earlier.

Thanks for your questions. 1) Yes, any Maths result you have achieved in Year 12 (or indeed, any A Level taken early) will be considered as part of the decision-making process and an A* in Maths will certainly be considered a good thing (especially in subjects where Maths is particularly relevant/important). As to whether it would be allowed to be counted towards the offer, that would be a decision taken on an individual basis.

  1. Yes, we will look at any AS results that you have in reformed subjects - it’s a national exam taken very recently, so it’s helpful to us. Students will not be disadvantaged by not taking AS Levels and students will not be advantaged simply by taking them. Students who have taken them an done well will be at an advantage, those who take them and do poorly will be at a disadvantage.

  2. We’re never going to say simply that A has more As at GCSE than B and therefore we give the place to A. In judging GCSE performance we will look at relative school performance for one - 10 As may be a standard performance at some schools, whereas 6 As may be exceptional at another. We will also, however, be looking at the whole application and the 10 As person may be significantly weaker in other areas than the 6 A*s candidate. We try to build as rounded a picture as we can before we make decisions about candidates. We have the average GCSE score for each school in England and this allows us to see how your performance ranks within your school.

To answer your questions. 1) There’s no problem in applying with 3 A Levels rather than four, we really don’t mind either way. Just reinvest the time saved wisely in your other subjects and in preparation for Medicine.

“In the Summer Pool, if more than one college wants a candidate then they toss a coin or draw cards. One of our candidates, taken from the Summer Pool this year, was in that situation and it’s reasonably common.”

还真有抽签投硬币招生的。。 {:5_142:}
