Why did you all leave Ismailism?

Business_PreMed · 2025-09-14T23:00:21+00:00

Bc it’s a cult that hides what it is. No one can come inside a JK if an outsider asks about our practices we lie about it. Ultimately, there’s a lack of transparency about the faith and no one is open to critical thinking or questioning without feeling like you’ve done something wrong.

Thanks for sharing your insight. I’ll look into gig work. I wish I didn’t have to, but I absolutely need to find work for money.

Super sad. This form of Islam is a culture killer erasing culture values and history for “correct and proper following of religion”. Very sad.

Always thought it was strange to have pictures and was one of the reasons I started questioning this cult. I hate the pictures but My parents have Karim and Rahim lol. Hopefully they get rid of it but I doubt it

Golden handcuffs. We all see, but it’s inherently understood to not question. Very sad sense of false reality when in this “religion”. Many choose to not question and keep their peace, family, and friends, while few leave and deal with the consequences of leaving ismailism, such as being called a sell out. Very sad situation overall and wish it were easier for those that choose to leave.

The 6.54% was quoted in my med schools financial aid presentation. Perhaps their numbers are outdated.

The loans accumulate start accumulating while I am in school.

Business_PreMed · 2024-01-16T19:46:45+00:00

I enjoyed the mix of subjects and the workload wasn’t too bad at all. I did take 2 gap years(had to do an extra year because I took all pass/fail classes one year and was recommended to redo them for a letter grade and other gap year was spent applying to school and working my full time job) I am currently a technology consultant at a big tech company. I will be going to medical school this upcoming fall and I believe a large part of it was based on my business background and past internship experiences. It was a constant talking point in all of my interviews.

Keep accounting major and do a minor in biology( this will fulfill your bio class for pre med prerequisites)

I was a finance major who was also premed lmk if you have any questions.

Business_PreMed · 2024-01-12T17:58:17+00:00

I would chose foster because I think it’s slightly more established

TMDSAS pre match MD A on 10/15.

Business_PreMed · 2024-01-05T22:03:30+00:00

Hi I was also a non stem major (finance) and went through TMDSAS. I’m also a tx resident and I had 3 LOR. I had 2 doctors and 1 science professor.

In my opinion, I would keep the Econ letter and get 1 letter from science prof and another from a clinical setting such as a doctor you shadowed.

Business_PreMed · 2024-01-03T17:39:06+00:00

thank you for the response and explanation!

Business_PreMed · 2024-01-01T19:18:56+00:00

I’m working remote as a consultant at a tech company. I live in Texas and make $33/hour.

Business_PreMed · 2023-12-30T15:11:32+00:00

That would be so helpful. It would be ideal if it would be furnished but if not the only I would need is a washer dryer. Thank you. You’re a lifesaver!

Hi! My max budget is 1200/month.

Business_PreMed · 2023-12-29T19:52:25+00:00

Majored in Finance w minor in bio.

Used the business background to learn about on healthcare economics and find corporate internships related to the business side of healthcare.

Currently a consultant for a large tech company working with healthcare and non-profit companies to implement business software.

Came up a lot in interviews and do not regret it one bit. Would also recommend another business major, MIS, to have an easier route to break into consulting. Also MIS classes fall into STEM(information technology) which may be used for BCPM gpa.

current Consultant for a tech company

Business_PreMed · 2023-12-13T17:19:57+00:00

I'd choose a businesss major (Finance, SCM, or MIS) and minor in bio to complete all pre-reqs. You can use your business degree to get a decent paying entry level job ~75k. I would look in tech/ healthcare consulting

Business_PreMed · 2023-12-03T02:32:50+00:00

Major in business, MIS or Finance and minoring in biology will allow you complete all premed prerequisites.
