Visa Guidelines is back

Alhamdulillah, I got married to a lovely lady by the name of Sarah and we're enjoying our new phase in life since that momentous day.

And yeah, I graduated from the University of Nottingham and thus, escaping from the evil clutches of my medical school. woot2! probably needs a post on this as well but yeah, maybe later.

at the bottom of this blog, there is an article on visa guidelines for medical students graduated from UK medical schools under MARA scholarship who are planning to work as an FY1 doctor in the UK.

After all, it was my visa guidelines which i made 5 years ago that helped me to get to know a lot of people and for some, have now become my close friends. And it helped a lot of other people as well. So I hope that this guideline would ease your efforts a bit. Visa application is always confusing.

defying gravity

I promised myself that I will never forget what happened in May 2013..

On that Monday, the exam week began with a double online exam challenge. After the exam, I was so worried that I fail them..which then revealed to be my double distinction for the Specials module. That was awesome, alhamdulillah!

On that Wednesday, it was the most difficult exam day thus far. 3 Knowledge exams of different specialties on 1 day & I had my first ever panic attack - and I shall always remember that experience.

On that Thursday, I disguised myself in an OSCE for the first time ever because if I were to get my Psychiatry Consultant who was really mean to me as an examiner; he wouldn't recognise me.

Finally on that Friday, in the resit for Obs and Gynae Skills exam; halfway through the 4 stations, I actually believed that I have a fighting chance to move on to Final Year. 

And that's exactly what happened.

It's the story of self-doubt and the need to believe in yourself

This Revision Week is not that helpful. It's actually causing more stress to not only me but to a whole lot of other people. Please pray for us. Second chances don't come that often...
