Back when i was still a 3rd yr medical technology student, i really wanted to be a doctor. i felt like it was so cool: knowing what your diagnosis and treatment would be and how great it was to see a patient really thankful for treating what ails them.

Then came 4th yr--internship. being on 24 hr duty was hecka hard! i really had a hard time working in a toxic hospital and staying up all night. While it fascinates me to become a doctor because now i can totally see real flesh gaping or a man being rushed to the radiology department with a knife stabbed on his abdomen before me, i realized i don't think i can handle 36 hrs duty. that 24 hr duty really gave me a hard time deciding if i should go for med school--not to mention the bulk of what we have to learn in med school in a short period of time.

Then came graduation, review for the board exam and heck. i was idle. i thought deeply and found myself dreaming to become a doctor. i said this is my dream since i was a kid. so i went applying to different schools even at the turmoil of the storm milenyo. my undergrad school got flooded. all their paper with the school header got trashed.... or so i thought. my teacher then pulled out the same paper thing.. it was a bit messed up but it's better than nothing. so they printed out a recommendation letter there that i can use. but my first shot at a med school didn't work out. i really wanted to go to that school but then, my mom just told me, "maybe you're not really for that school." sad, no?

But that didn't stop me! i looked for a different school and found this med school where i'm currently studying miles away from home. as in. malayo talaga from home. this is where fate took me to. at least, i'm gonna become a doctor someday.

i'm doing good in my school. i'm currently a 3rd year medical student in Saint Louis University- Baguio. there're perky times and sad times din syempre. mahirap din pala sa med school. nakaka-antok magbasa maya't maya pero you'll get the hang of it. Hindi lahat ng quiz eh makakapasa ka pero syempre, you have to do better next time. But with all the hardship i went through, at least i can say, someday i'll be a doctor and one of the best maybe.

Good luck to all aspiring doctors! God bless you all.

Basta bawal matulog kapag may test or exam... Cramming is the best policy! Paano ka naman makapag advance reading when your studying for a test tom? At facebook ang outlet sa lahat ng stress... may exam pero OL sa facebook hahahaha

sharing life in med school stories here =]

God bless your own journey! May you have lots of stories to tell as well!

[bodjiebodjie]

Med school life starts, they say, when you finally decide on becoming a doctor.

Fourth year college, nagstart na ako sumali sa mga forums like this one and SDN para, like you, malaman ko ang buhay med school kasi sa lahat ng buhay school na hindi ko alam, is yung buhay ng isang med student. Kaya since April pa lang before ako nag4th year college nagpopost na ako dito para mag-inquire.

I did get my big break nung tinanggap ako sa UERM. Nung June pumasok na ako after nung board exams namin.

At first, muntikan na ako bumigay at magdrop kasi sobrang OVERWHELMING ang mga subjects na tinuturo. Hindi ko kinaya nung una, but I had to endure it para malusutan ko. They say na "Med school is like going into an everyday battle." Hindi na yun college, kaya iba na ang magiging takbo ng buhay mo.

Sa med, mahirap subjects kapag hindi ka nakakapagbasa prior or after the day of the lecture. Mahirap ang quizzes at mahirap ang exams. Pero walang mahirap kapag nag-aral ka. Pag exams, ang exams ay either analytical or recall. May mga experiments at lab activities kayo na will require you to think and analyze.

Socially, may time ka pa to go out with your friends. Make the most of it.

Lastly, dapat maging mindset mo pagpasok ng med ay na ang med school ay isang malawak na battleground na kailangan mo malampasan para masabi mo na kaya mo tumagal. =)

more stories pa please? sarap matuto eh

[mausochistic]

I am currently a first year med student. Ewan ko kung naculture shock ako or anything, maybe I expected much before I entered this school.

I have a prof na laging late, they make us wait for about 1 hour or more to think na full time academicians naman sila, di naman nagcliclinic. And our class last only for 1 hour most of the time. He downloads most of his presentations and also our examinations din minsan. At kapag iprepresent niya na yung presentation niya, he'll be silent for 5 minutes or so para ireview ung slide at iisipin niya kung anong sasabihin niya. And we are there, dumbfounded. And we ened up not undersatnding anything he discusses. And during dissections, he leaves us doing this thing on our own! Db they are suppose to be there to guide us? at siya pa ang prof ko in 3 other subjects!

There was also this one time, (another subject, ibang prof naman)... nageexam kami ng remedials nun..and he brought with him some "other" people to help him out during the proctoring. at ung mga kasama niya are roaming around telling the answers sa mga "anak-anakan" nilang classmates ko. I felt bad sa mga nkikita ko that time pero d naman basta2x kung magsusumbong kaming mga nakakita.

Mas nashock pa ako nung first time kong nalaman na uso sa school na un ang OT (old test papers). Yung mga may friends sa higher years are so lucky kasi nabibiyayaan sila..nakakagulat nalang pag dating na mismo ng exam, yung nabigay sa knilang paper mismo ang lalabas sa exam!

We are supposed to have our emergency med ds 2nd sem, sad to say wala kaming naging prof..at hinayaan lang nilang mangyari yun..hayyys

And I heard, in other schools, magkakasabay ang physio, ana, at histo pag dating sa mga topics..na kunwari and2 kayo sa isang system sa ana, un din magging focus nyo sa histo and physio..eh sa amin, ewan ko..magkakaiba so db parang mas mhihirapan ung mga students na maintndhan?..

I am having my finals this week and we had only one meeting in our ana prior to this wk. And he made us read head and neck tapos lower limbs without discussing and finals na..hayys. basta ganun na lang! Tapos sa biochem ganun din! Tapos kung san2x niya kukunin yung exam namin.. hayys.

There are more, these are just some of what I've been through..

And the result of all of these, most of us failed. kahit na ung sobra2x magbasa sa amin, ganun din ang resulta although may mga magagaling talaga na kahit hindi iutro sa knila, kaya nila..pro d naman lahat kami exprienced na sa mga naging pre med namin.

I feel like my first year life in med turned into waste..i know its suppose to be a self study thing kasi med school, pero db you'll be more motivated kapag you have good professors to let you understand more yung mga binabasa mo lang at patas yung mga nangyayari, fixed schedules at nagagamit ng husto yung binabayad, at sila pa yung nagiging inspirasyon mo para maging magaling na doctor in the future? hayys. im thinking of transferring to another school because of these incidents..and i would like na ulitin ko nlng ang first yr ko..

I shared this ksi I just want to know if ganito rin po ba sa ibang med school?

i'm doing good in my school. i'm currently a 3rd year medical student in Saint Louis University- Baguio. there're perky times and sad times din syempre. mahirap din pala sa med school. nakaka-antok magbasa maya't maya pero you'll get the hang of it. Hindi lahat ng quiz eh makakapasa ka pero syempre, you have to do better next time. But with all the hardship i went through, at least i can say, someday i'll be a doctor and one of the best maybe.

Good luck to all aspiring doctors! God bless you all.

Tayo'y mga Dugong bughaw!...Tayo'y mga Louisians Med students na matatagpuan lamang sa Rizal building..hehe..Nice story po..very inspiring!

Kung hindi talaga worth at naco-compromise yung studies niyo, mag-transfer ka na lang dito sa Metro Manila schools.

Sabi mo kasi may times na walang available na magtuturo ng ibang subjects, siguro naman yung mga schools dito sa Metro Manila kumpleto ng teaching staff dahil plenty of MD's naman ang nagpa-practice sa Metro..

hi.. i had the same experience with mausochistic. kasi classmates kami! haha nahanap ko lang tong post nya.. and sad to say pero ganun nga talaga sa med school namin.. exams na nadownload lang sa internet.. swerte mo kung mahanap mo yun at naaral mo before exams.. lectures na downloaded or copied from other MDs sa mga seminars. dapat sana lecture on that topic pero clinical na agad na minsan parang iba na at parang di na naaayon.. and yung about sa remedial exams na may mga sinasabihan ng sagot. ako that time nilalagpasan lang ng mga bumubulong sa iba. ayos nga yung exams e kasi di ko na inexpect na papasa pako dun pero ayun pumasa ko! wala kasi talaga mangyayari sayo sa school na yun kung di ka aasa sa sarili mong aral.. bigla nalang kayong mageexam ng hindi naman nalecture. e andami dami nun napakaimposibleng matapos mo agad. okay pa dun sa isang subject kahit na mahirap e okay ang prof pero isa lang yun.. magulo kwento ko kasi kalat mga naiisip ko sa sobrang daming kabalbalan. may prof na binabasa lang ang sobrang habang presentation tapos magtatanong hindi nya rin sasagutin. bahala na daw yung subject responsible dun. tapos tuwang tuwa kapag may bumabagsak. may isa pang subject, okay naman daw ako sa recitation dahil kung pumuri at maggrade sa classcard sabi ng iba mataas daw grade ko. wala rin akong failed na quiz dun. pero pagdating na posting ng grade bagsak ako. pano yun nangyari? di ko rin alam. at di raw ako pwede magremedial exams kung lilipat ako. ano yun? yung mga OT naman or old exams na natatanggap namin ginagawa lang naming basis for that subject kumbaga sample exam kaso minsan yung iba yun na pala mismo exam.. lilipat na talaga ko ng school and sure nako sa decision ko.. kahit na yung mga classmates kong iba pinipigilan ako at kung ano anong mga negative things ang sinasabi about sa pagtransfer ko... sana makapasok ako sa UERM this june .. dun kasi ang gusto ko at ng family ko for me.. tinatapos ko nalang lahat ng business ko sa school namin.. pinapasa lahat ng mga pwede para naman hindi sabihin ng iba na bagsak ako kaya ako lumipat which is hindi naman talaga. nakakainngit yung mga ibang med students na okay ang napasukang school. hindi nasayang ang isang taon nyo.. ayos narin tong nangyari.. sabi ko nga, para lang akong pumasok sa isang review center ng med. okay narin. excited nakong maging first year ulit sa magiging school ko..
