    Hey everyone, I am doing medicine abroad at the moment and did exams as part of the course, and I was wondering what do the grades I get count towards here in Ireland? Do people with high grades get to do a certain specialty or is there any other advantage?

    Your medical school will be asked to submit your centile within the class (ie the higher your centile the better you are) and this is used to rank intern jobs against other EU students. Higher up on the list means you're more likely to get your preference. After EU students, non-EU students are then ranked and given any remaining jobs. This is out of date but details the process: http://www.medicine.tcd.ie/assets/pdf/A-Guide-to-Application-and-Appointment-to-Intern-Training-in-Ireland-Stage-1.pdf

    After the intern programme, medical school grades mean very little, and certainly won't exclude you from any postgraduate training schemes.
