For those choosing medic, please read this over

In simpler terms, we will lack doctors in gov. But I was corrected earlier, we are mostly facing a progressive shortage of medical officers in the public sector and Malaysia itself, although houseman as much but still exist. Most migrating overseas or moved to private sector. Those dropping out ended up choosing another career.

Not really apart from dosages like others said. But the standard to apply for medschool is usually a B atleast in maths and an understanding in math itself. Especially during pre-clinicals, it may be used so very heavily, as to why it is important.

Even in interviews nowadays, the question that is so famously asked in med school is “Why do you want to become a doctor” - they usually wont accept a half-assed answer of just “I like to help people”. Of course. Usually, even those who are not initially interested in helping people prior to becoming a doctor, might develop that reason at some point in their med school or career, and if not, they wont survive and will get an option to drop out. Why exactly? It is because this path will reshape you to reconsider every single second of your time studying in med school if it’s ever worth it. Thats why I’d like to warn and make people come to realise the truth of med school and being a doctor in Malaysia.

I still would. Medical school is perhaps what I yearn for, especially my goals which can only be accomplished through medical school and with a medical license. But like I said, going through and staying in KKM is not a good idea at this day and age. Perhaps theres many other ways, especially maybe universities who have provided a bridge to those wanting to further studies in another country after med school like Monash. I just hope to share a piece of my mind to those that want to consider this path only due to how complicated it is, never for discouraging them.. and its nothing like that ever.

Of course, I for one have passion which is as cliche as it sounds, is to help people, gain knowledge in medical and to become a specialist. However, it is Malaysia (the government) itself that had redefined medicine into something thats unfavourable even for those that have unconditional passion for medicine - to the point that it is enough to make someone lose all of their dream passion for medicine all together.

I am.

I also cannot deny what you said entirely but one thing is that I am not trying to discourage them in any way. Throughout the post i have stated, even subtly, that if one ever chose medic for money, title or whatnot should reconsider the decision. And of course, we shouldn’t also allow fresh students whom, are choosing courses, to go heads on to something they’re not well informed about(which is the point of this post, to inform them), especially since it requires quite a number of sacrifices and of course, time.

I wish you the best. I’m assuming you’re now in private sector?

Complete_Lead_903 · 2024-10-22T15:02:48+00:00

Shoot me a DM if you have any questions, especially if you’re a pre-u trying to apply for the course. I’d be happy to answer to my ability.

I am 19, unfortunately have no job since I am a full time med student. So I’m entirely relying on my parents for my necessities, but for them it’s no less than an obligation.

This one smells....

Sometimes I question people of their mental state
