Not to mention the nine years training, and having to be "AAA" at A-
level material.

I don't think that's a "have to", it's just a convenient filter. IME
there's no equivalent academic expectation in many other countries for
"entry level" doctors.

Entry to medical training in the UK is highly competitive and greatly
(I've seen as much as 10x) oversubscribed.

I know

that's why they *can* use AAA as a filter and still get to select on other
criteria

All you've done is confirm my statement


snip the rest as it added nothing at all of relevance to my comment
