My Dusty Old Shelf

Only three months left until fourth year ends. And I still feel like I know nothing. It's actually kinda scary. In less than a year, I would be sitting my final, final exam. (Well given that I pass fourth year this summer...) And I would not trust my life to myself if I were my own doctor HAHAHA Okay no, please trust me, future patients!! This year has been pretty tough. A lot has happened and a lot are happening. I gotta step up my game. I haven't studied, let alone revise.  My plan is to khatam buku Clinical Specialties and Clinical Medicine.

No one's really in the mood quite yet, or at least I'm not. Haha So, lately I've been getting a lot of questions from my juniors, my friends' juniors, and acquaintances about Medicine. What it's like. How do you get in. How smart do you have to be. etc. How do it even answer all those questions? Firstly let me tell you this, whatever I've said to you or what I will say is based purely on my own experiences and opinions . So please don't make your decisions solely on what I said. Disclaimer. Hahaha Medicine is not an easy course, which I'm sure everybody knows. To get in, it takes a lot of work and once you're in, it takes even more work. You should know that no two medical schools are alike so pleaseeeee don't ask me things like "which ...
