In the upper echelons of Wallace Wurth, in a room unbeknownst to mere mortals, the fates of each year\u2019s Medicine applicants are decided. But the forces act in mysterious, and sometimes inexplicable ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Axe Traordinaire, a high school leaver, agreed to sit down with us for a brief interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAxe, why don\u2019t you tell us a bit about yourself?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The name\u2019s Axe Traordinaire: academic juggernaut, athletic prodigy and every ladies\u2019 dream man. What else is there to say?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tell us what happened to you.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m sure you all think you know the story. I applied. I didn\u2019t get in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not that clear cut though. Have you seen my CV? It\u2019s simply glorious. Magnificent. Two-time Olympic gold medallist. CEO of my own billion-dollar start-up. And 2000 hours of volunteering to boot. What\u2019s not to love?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet against all odds, I\u2019m sitting out here, a diamond in the rough. I\u2019ve got no idea what went wrong with the selection process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Surely you have some guesses?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019re not many things I can think of. Corruption? Maybe they felt threatened by my success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Honestly though, I did everything fantastically. My interview was nothing short of perfection. I was confident and completely authentic, with nothing to hide. I\u2019d prepared for everything they threw at me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMotivation?\u201d Prestige. \u201cWeakness?\u201d Don\u2019t make me laugh. \u201cFuture specialty?\u201d I\u2019m founding a new one: paediatric neuro-orthopaedic surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I just don\u2019t know what could have gone wrong\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026I can\u2019t imagine why they didn\u2019t accept you. Do you have any plans to move on from this?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well… I\u2019m playing golf with Bill next weekend to discuss some plans with his Foundation, and I also need to train for the upcoming Iron Man Challenge. But I think I\u2019m gonna need some more time to fully process this shocking setback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I mean, what were they thinking? Did they see my ATAR? Maybe they misread it\u2026 Did they know I was prefect? AND debating captain! What on EARTH were those imbeciles thinking? HOW DARE THEY! Those [censored] [censored] [censored] pieces of [censored] [censored].\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Axe was shortly removed by security.<\/p>\n
