what were the shortcomings of Bohr's model?

At first, his model appeared promising-his calculations agreed with the hydrogen emission spectrum 1)his model didn't work with atoms other than hydrogen 2) there were attempts to adapt it with elliptical obits, but it was concluded that his model is fundamentally incorrect-the current theory of atomic structure is in no way derived from the Bohr 3)electrons don't move around the nucleus in circular orbits 4)however, Borh's model paved the at for later theories
