Hi guys so here is my story. I just graduated last feb 2007 at DLSU manila Bachelor of Arts in Sports and Recreational Management under the College of Education. Medyo malayo sa medicine dba? Pero i really want to become a doctor. A few units of biology(4 units), basic anatomy-physiology(3 units), and chemistry(2units) ang mga napagaralan ko nung college. So feeling ko gagapang talaga ako sa med school 🙁

teka, pwede bang pumasok sa med school kung kulang ang credits mo sa basic sciences?

i have an engineering background, but i've made up my mind to get into med school for 2008. any advice?
 
ako, Sociology major pero ok naman performance ko sa med school. may classmate pa nga ko na civil engineer. ok lang yan basta determined ka maging doctor. mejo mag-isip-isip ka nga lang. nagsisi ako when i entered clerkship. di ko naisip na kelangan palang magduty ng 24-36 hours every three days for two years (clerkship & internship). nakakapagod na. 🙁

same question.
 
for most med schools, as long as you have a bs degree, no need for additional units

pero depende pa rin sa med school yan
 
nahihirapan ako
ngayon lang ako nag aaral ng ganito
i might fail hehe

-first yr med

med school is a VERY different life from college. many cum laudes/ magnas/ summas get their first failing exam grade in med. :hardy:

best of luck still though!
 
if you are really determined to be a doctor, go for it! whatever your pre-med may be. you have to prepare yourself for additional 3-4 yrs of studying, hospital duties, further dependency to your parents meanwhile your friends are gradually climbing the "social ladder".

i have a friend who graduated in business management at DLSU taft. she went to med school after 2-3 yrs. now, she's a licensed physician. she's happy. she has no regrets, knowing that she may have been financially stable now if she continued to pursue a career in business.

just complete your missing number of units, aim high for the NMAT, apply to your chosen medical schools (& pray that you'll be accepted) then you're on your way to medical school.

btw, i hope none of you is "takot sa dugo". hahaha!
