Bear with me. I know it may not be blog worthy but to quote some of our more eloquent members, '**** you!'

Results Day. If anyone was in chat, they would know how much I was freaking out. So, I had stayed up pretty late assuming I had done the math right about when I can check my results. Turns out 2 months of not doing any real maths can really affect your ability to do so.

I crashed out on my bed and just slept right through the check-in time for results. My parents had came over from work to wake my groggy ass out of bed and kept clucking at me to check.

I needed the right combination of grades to enter the Med School I wanted. Yes, I could go for higher but after sitting for my exams, I would have settled for that one combo.

I entered my username and password. My palms were sweaty, knees weak, arms were heavy, no vomit on my sweater, I wanted mom's spaghetti (cookie for those who can guess where I got that from).

I scrolled down, looking at the grades. And then it clicked.
.

It was the right combo. I passed. I had the needed grades to go Med School.

I whooped out loud. I looked for my parents, told them the good news. They smiled at me and said they were glad. They, however, reminded me since that my results were, in a sense, above average, I would have to show that my results don't reflect who I am.

So, yea. I'm going to Med School. I know I'm going to be one busy Panda pretty soon. Heck, its turning into a mess here as I have to finalise some documents before I receive a full offer letter. But yea, I'm going to be real busy.

I, however, will always find time for the game that introduced me to so many great, if not amazing, people, Starcraft II; my clan, whom have given me the opportunity to represent them and proudly carry the clan tag as well as being a family (albeit abit of a dysfunctional one), ; and last but not least, the sc2sea community, for being such a close knit, awesome and caring community. YOU GUYS ROCK!

Much from Panda. I will do all you guys proud and I will see you guys soon

EDIT: souljah asked which med uni i'm applying to
NUMed Johor
Essentially a campus away from the United Kingdom, the entire program will be exactly like that in the UK. Even the exams are the same time ie. UK 8am = Malaysia 4pm. The MBBS given will not be from Malaysia but rather from the UK ie MBBS (UK/Newcastle) and not MBBS (Malaysia).

Re: R-Day for an Exam Student

Hey Panda, glad to know I'm not going to be the only med student around on SC2. If at anytime you need advice or anything, feel free to hit me up, whether with regards to studies or to SC2! Btw, which med school are you applying for?
