Fresh fry Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Unless this is YOA stuff I'm not sure how it is possible to have "dropped charges" that result in probation. I would suggest going and getting a copy of your police record check and vulnerable sector check and seeing what it says. As someone who had some bumps as a teenager I won't judge but if there is anything on that police report this is essentially a non-starter.

rmorelan Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 You can order your own check no? (well I could). Seems so much easier just to look at the silly thing and see what it says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmorelan Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 they will check your police report - that would be standard. As to what would be on it in your case I am not sure - this sorts of things only rarely come up so there isn't a lot of history to draw from really.

Fresh fry Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 You need to supply a police records check and vulnerable sector check with application to every medical school you apply to. You can not receive Royal College Accreditation if you have any unpardoned offences on your record and therefore medical schools will not consider you for entrance if you have anything on your record. I am no lawyer but it is my understanding that charges which you have not been convicted of do not show up on your record. It is against the Charter or Rights and Freedoms to be prejudiced against for something you have not been convicted of. THAT BEING SAID: you stated you pled guilty and received 1 year of probation for one of your charges (don't know which one, doesn't really matter). To my understanding this means you are likely to have this on your record but again you will have to check. It is possible, at great expense and time, to get a pardon for an offence and if that is granted it will be removed from your record at which time you can apply. I highly doubt anyone on this forum will have any further insight into this matter as this is highly irregular. Your best bet is to get a copy of your record and if there is a recorded offence, discuss it with a lawyer. I would definitely avoid inquiring to medical schools about this until it is resolved. Please refrain from using profanity on this board, and good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunAndMoon Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 I guess you could just let the med schools know and explain to them that you get....sometimesmad..... edit: that being said, sorry dude. I hope it works out for you. It sucks when stupid mistakes end up following you after you've changed as a person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
