This is not a thread that determines what to do or not do in school. So many students who goes to the uni wants to be a doctor, some are going there for the title while others see it as a career path that leads you to pot of cash and wealth. Well this might help you to do a little rethink.

Here are a few reasons why you should think long and hard before going to medical school:

1. You like to help people. So did my nursery school teacher who had a rockin’ sweet, life-size, laminated poster of a Blue Whale.

2. You are smart and like science. So are the guys who work for Boeing and my physics undergrad tutor who gets paid to get a PhD and the girl who invented Kevlar. Yeah, a girl invented Kevlar.

3. Your dad was a doctor… whose dad was a doctor…. whose dad was a doctor. This isn’t the 1850′s. And despite the fact that medical school curriculum has remained the same since when those dinosaurs roamed the earth, you needn’t pursue any career for legacy’s sake.

4. Money. You’d make a touch less as an engineer,pharmacist or even a lecturer.

5. You think it will give you flexibility before age 29. Dearest ladies of the world, every woman that works outside the home can’t have it all. Yet every woman can make it work for kids/sigO/friends outside the home. And I’m sure candy carson might lean in on that.

6. You’re a life-long learner. Yay! See #2

7. You like being in charge and running things. I do too. But I wouldn’t trade away countless hours in the library, 2 more years as a hospital peon, and then 3 years of residency if I could dive straight into the rat race of the corporate world.

8. You just thought you might try it. I’d rather listen to Tonto dikeh's music on repeat than be an M1 again.


PS. I created another on reasons you should go to medical school, so, don't make up your mind yet.

MTN for giving me this sweet MTN night plan
My papa, mama and sisters for always believing in me

My side chick for providing the necessary place for me to pack my JT
And I want to specially thank my GF for treating my sidechick as a sister, afterall division of Labour saves time and energy
I wan thank all nairalanders for your amazing comments, squabble and hilarious political HIGGI-HAGA

.one man poison is anoda man food...To me, I will kum out of med. Schl as a successful oral n maxillofacial surgeon richer, more respected and beta Dan u kan ever imagine.

I don't understand why people developed this hatred for medical school/ doctors. If u were frustrated in your attempts to get into the medical school, that shouldn't make you discourage others who aspire to get in there.

Thinking of something witty...

There is no future in any profession,the future lies in the hands of the individual who holds the profession.

Your points are not really valid. Seems since you argued pro med school, you thought it compulsory to argue against (which isn't even necessary!)

Lame points!
