Cool Medical Problem???

Hi guys. Had my medical yesterday and the guy picked up that I had a hearing loss - this is so severe that I forgot to mention it! Seriously it does not cause me any problems and I have been around the world, been to Uni, have always worked etc. The question is he gave me a B score instead of an A - could this minor blip blow my chances???

I dont know, I wouldn't have thought that it'd be a huge prob, just that there's sometting on the radar....could you add any extra info to your application to reflect that this is why you were given a "B"?

Years ago, we used to hire people who were A or B, but not C....it's illegal to discriminate for employment purposes on this basis now!

Good luck and keep us posted.

Thanks for your reply and I will of course let you know what happens. Was told to send the med in as it is - everything else fine and wait and see if they require more info. Was a bit shocked but fingers crossed!
