Do I have a realistic medicine opportunity?

Hi there, I’m hoping to apply to Uni this year in the hope of taking medicine. It’s the only career I’ve ever wanted but I want to be realistic as to whether i could achieve this. I under-achieved at GCSE’s, getting A*,A,A,A,A,A,B,B,B. This year I took Biology, Maths, Chemistry and Photography in which i got A,A,B,B respectively. I work part-time in a bio-chemistry/haematology lab and volunteer at the local hospital. I play many sports and play guitar in a band which plays local gigs. I know the minimum requirements for medicine but I’m wondering whether i could compete. Any body got any ideas? Thanks alot for any help.

Yes, but is this what you want.

where to meet people (mainly guys) in the summer?

Ok im 14 years old and i live near the san francisco bay area and i have nothing to do this summer and i really really want to meet new people and meet guys and stuff but i dont know how. i know i should join something like a club or something but i dont want to join a sport (besides most of those r strictly girls or guys teams) and i guess i could do some volunteer work or take a class or something but i can think of something to take or where to volunteer. (like photography, or language or something or volunteering with animals) so i sorta need some specific opportunities where i can meet people. help me out?

Okay, i never see no cute guys in a Photography class.
For reference.
Um, Just Chill go to the Beach,
The Park, The Popular Diner.
Whatever, Volunteering is nice.
Try Costal Cleanup or something.
Guys like girls who can Clean Up
Hope i helped. And Be Yourself.
Dont try to go searching so hard,
and just chill and see what you find.
Dont look to eager. :]

Photography??

I need to know a little bit of things about photography.Like…. the duties of being one,what schools you need to go to,volunteer opportunities,the description f the job,salary and average hours per week.Please don’t give me a link to somewhere I need to know from someone whos had experience and knows what they’re talking about.

There are (sadly) starving photographers. There are also millionaire photographers. It depends on you.
There are many fields in photography. What do you want to do? Photograph babies and beauties in a -mall or -mart studio? Glamour-studio? School photography? Weddings, events, news? War? Celebrity (PPRzzi)? Architectural from the ground and /or the air? Underwater- (there is an institute in Miami) Commercial-, Fashion-, Technical-, Forensic-, Medical-, Scientific-photography?
Most universities offer degrees in photography, there are specialized schools like Brooks Institute or Winona. There are correspondence schools as the NYIP, the New York Institute of Photography (nyip.com) since 1910 or so.
Duties depend on the work you are doing plus the integrity of being a professional which is something you respect. People come to you for images of themselves, their products, their loved ones, their events, often once in a lifetime and an image cannot be replaced by an excuse.
Salary depends on region, grade, experience, who you work for and what name you’ve made for yourself. It can vary from basic to 40.-/hr
Hours, if you’re doing studio, pretty much standard business hours, weddings & events include evenings but depend on the event.
It is a very wide field with so many variables. Most $ is made if you go on your own but startup is long and very hard. And then most hours are spend in clients relations.
Why do you want to go into photography as a job? Do you have an absolute fascination with everything visual to the point of absurdity? That you must learn to control.
As the musician must have ear or hearing, the photographer must have the ability of “seeing” which is not perceiving light with the cornea of the eyes but the ability to capture the spirit of an instant in a still. Technique can be learned, feeling is not.
Do you have pictures somewhere? Show something.
