    As an MS2, I will say that I lacked the degree of synthesis/abstract thinking that would've made me a killer undergrad student. Memorization was my strength. I got to med school, and I am starting to shine. Thanks to my obsessive work ethic and memorization favor.

    "This video provides a candid look at the less-discussed aspects of being a doctor. It's a reminder that the profession requires immense dedication and emotional resilience, but the impact on patients' lives makes it truly rewarding.

    Developing a strong work ethic and memorization just convinced me that I could have/should have done med school. I do enjoy retaining information. 😂

    At 1:35, the video claims that "half of what you learn in med school will become wrong in 5-10 years."
    Hyperbole. It's far less than half. Does our anatomy change in 10 years? Chem? Physics? Maybe 10% changes. What do others think?

      i do think half in 5-10 years is a bit of an exaggeration, i'd say that it'd probably be closer to 30%. there is just so much about disease progression and pathology that we have absolutely no idea about.

      @@ftapon Oww okay. I was gonna comment about how in Preclinical year science things don't change much. But in Clinical settings guidelines, treatment options change a lot a lot. Half might be a bit exaggerated but I would say upto 40 % of things will change completely in few years.

    "Medical doesnt challenge your critial thing but your memorization" does that mean most engineers can be docs but not very mean docs can be engineers?

      @brennengodeen3796 Год назад +1

      I’d likely agree to that statement. Yes there are incredibly intelligent individuals in both careers but engineering certainly appears to require abstract thinking. I’d be the first to admit I am an “average” student compared to my peers. I’m comparing myself to very motivated and dedicated people. It’s my work ethic that has allowed me pass my classes and tests. Some would say I’m some sort of “savant” or incredibly gifted person. That could not be further from the truth. Many of us thrive on working hard and sacrificing a significant portion of our lives. I’m My opinion, my significant other is smarter than me as an BSN. She could absolutely succeed in medical school however she wanted a different role within the healthcare team. If you’re pursuing a career in medicine, it had better be for the passion and not the financial incentives. When you struggle or things become overwhelming and far more challenging than you anticipated, passion will be there to save you. I could find many other career paths that could have similar financial outcomes at a much lower tuition cost.

      @brennengodeen3796 agree that hard work matters the most. Honestly, my memory is pretty bad but I do good on the critical thinking side (I like to think, as an engineer).

    Practicing medicine is only one career path. Could you elaborate more on this? Most doctors will be doctors for the rest of their lives. They can't simply quit and chose another profession altogether. In my country I haven't come across doctors doing side hustles.

    Hi I’m currently in first year college and I think I want to go into medicine at uni but I’m not 100% sure, but I don’t know what else I would like to do other than medicine. I know I want to work with children and I want to work in medicine and health care as I’m really interested in the human part of biology, however I dont know what job is suitable for me as I don’t like loud environments and I find it quite chaotic and stressful.
    Do you have any advice for me or any ideas of what I could do?

      If u love medicine and have the chance to get accepted into a medical school, Do it. We all have problems or fears like speaking infront of an audience, presentations in class, but hey almost of every major forces u to do these things. U’ll get used to it. Also working as a Doctor is not chaotic.. Depends on which specialty of course!

    I’m ngl, 200k in debt isn’t bad even for a primary care physician salary, if you can’t pay off around 200k in debt while making a minimum of 250-400k in 10-15 years, then you need to get your priorities straight and be more financially responsible
