to be or not to be a doctor

Let me tell you thatthis is my first blog.


Actually i always wanted to discuss this with personnel from every feild to compare it wid their field and what they feel.


To start with i am a doctor.Actually a medical student i should say,not into practice yet.But when i had started it was a fantasy kind of a thing.to be a DOCTOR…


i gave the pmt,entered medical college,cleared mbbs………now what.


i had the degree of mbbs but that was not enough.


it really looks so mesmerising to look at the profession of mbbs ,,,,,,,is it so?


i asked myself.and the answer was in front of me………..another exam”PRE PG ENTRANCE”


when i started my career it was 2001 i.e.i completed my mbbs in 2007(to be precise 5 and a half years).then came this exam.they say it is the toughest one in india equivalent to upsc.100000 aspirants and only 1000 seats (thats an relative figure),th-atmeans if you ahve to get in you will have to kill the dreams of 99 other doctors.IS IT FARE?


It took me 3 attempts to get it cleared.i got in yhis year.


but teh problem is not it took my 3 years,the problem is i missed all parties,all family function,marriages,no friends,no girlfriend either.


but ya i got cleared, my family is happy, i m happy…………IS THAT SO?M I HAPPY?


this is not just my question, its every medicos question.


and the quest doesnt stops here.i will have to clear my final year md/ms exam after three years…….and afterthat again an ENTRANCE for DM/MCH…..WHAT THE F?


btu yaeh we r happy?


is it so?

    those doubts will disappear once you…….. start practising your branch…wonder what branch you got in pg ENTRANCE…….but once you are into the feild…then its the different world….Did you work these three years… if not then its the reason you feel wheteher it is worth it? I am enjoying and having a happy balanced life! uncertanities are in all branch
