"I legally have to offer you a place because A of equal opportunities, but I doubt the regulator will register you," the interviewer said, after I had disclosed my disabilities to them during my MPharm entrance interview ten years ago. I was shocked. I was speechless. Throughout my undergraduate study their comment hung over me. I felt, at any moment, that someone would walk over to me, tap me on the shoulder and say, "Excuse me, you are not supposed to be here. You need to leave."
