Hi Shazz no hun, don't have that but wanted to reassure you that I really don't think that will be a problem.

We all have things wrong with us and some of the things you would think prevent students training actually don't!

hope that makes you feel a bit better?

You'll be fine, don't worry, its when ppl have dry hands and they have problems with soaps etc.. that they are concerned with x

Hi Shazz, just wanted to say hello! Congratulations on your place! I'm sure your hands won't be a problem, I know what it's like to be paranoid about not actually getting though!

I think all of us starting this Sept have convinced ourselves something is going to stop us, it's just seems too good to be true doesn't it?

Hi and congrats on your place.

Regarding your hands, the only problem this may cause is that it may take you longer to get a pair of gloves on! lol - seriously, no-one will be worried about sweaty hands. Use the hand rub before palpations and before putting on gloves and you will find the problem lessens.
