Hello all,
I just wanted to let you guys know that I have been having some doubts on my route to Medicine. I was in the hospital the other day, volunteering, and it turns out I didn't enjoy it as I thought I would. It seems to me some doctors live depressing lives, keep diagnosing patients that are going to die - and it just seems such a job that I couldn't even handle. Maybe I am not fit for medicine as a career. I'm more of a hands on person, like learning new skills, but this (medicine) doesn't look too appealing to me anymore. My parents are waiting 'till the day I finish up my undergrad and continue on with medicine, but RIGHT NOW, I'm kind of on a halt. I think I'm going to stop now and transfer to engineering/ or business.
I just have my doubts, so I think it's best to pull out. Do you guys have any feelings toward where your heading? I just wanted to hear your opinions.
Thanks, Medo.
