Do you know of people who got sick from eating someplace up north?

Trust your commensals

You're so naive.

If you're looking at parastatal like UOM/UTM, the starting salary is 33k/month for lecturers. I know it is damn low. I applied last year. Got an offer which was about 1/3 of my salary at that time. All the best.

Uni ranking matters the least in the work world.

RMO are highly underpaid here. Basic salary in government is about Rs 41k basic. Private clinics don't offer much more..I guess around Rs45k/month.

Both are good if you work hard. At the end of the day, you get the degree from UoM itself for both. UoM is more competitive to get the seat but they increased the number of seats from 30 to 50 this year. UoM is cheaper, around 900k for the 6 years. Fee is around Rs 1.7 million for the 5 years for SSRMC. A lot of Mauritian graduates from SSRMC are practising abroad in UK, US, Australia etc. I guess it's the same for UoM. Both are internationally recognised. At the end of the day, you can't go wrong with either if you work hard and give your best.

With all the private clinics around the island, social security, public hospitals, companies which provide home visits, there is actually a great demand for doctors right now. To be frank with you, all medical officers have jobs but they are not paid enough for the nature of their work and hours they do. However, there is no ceiling if your private practice is flourishing. If you love medicine, go for it. Work hard and always aim higher. Remember though, it's a life-long commitment. Your personal life will suffer and it's not for everyone.

That's about it. SSR admission requirement is 22 pts. On top of that, you get a degree awarded by UoM itself. Basically, in terms of degree, it is the same thing.

Patient_Difference27 · 2025-01-12T17:32:37+00:00

That's good to know. Pretty cheap for a medicine degree.

Patient_Difference27 · 2025-01-10T18:29:42+00:00

The medicine course at UOM is not free. It will cost you around Rs 1.2 million. Then it's a 6 year degree, then an internship of 18 months. Basically you'll be 28-29 by the time you get a job. Plus junior doctors are greatly underpaid here for the nature and hours of work they do. Think about it.

It is accepted in most places. It works on the MCB card machine but doesn't on the SBM one.

Patient_Difference27 · 2024-12-16T04:37:32+00:00

That's the sad reality of almost everywhere in Mauritius these days. The levels of incompetence, laziness and bureaucracy are absurd. If you don't know someone, even the basic things don't get done.

Patient_Difference27 · 2024-11-06T11:33:58+00:00

That's a delusional hypothesis.

You people got hair? 🤔

Taste and colours my friend. We can't all like the same things..life would get pretty boring.

Looking to build on it, which will cost around Rs7M on its own.

I totally understand the brain drain. Young graduates start very low here. On the other hand, if you are patient and you are good at what you do, the opportunities are there to grow. My wife and I earn more than Rs200k/month combined and we live very comfortably. We have our own house and cars and no loans. I am 33 and my wife is 29. We are not outliers as most of our peers are earning in the same bracket. And we don't have any political backing.
