Hi guys, incoming first year here. For the past few months, I have been having cold feet about medicine. So, I wanted to ask, what is your life outside of school like? I know this can change from year to year. Can you have dinners with friends most weeks? Find a SO (I'm gay if it makes a difference)? Go on dates consistently (see each other like twice a week)? Maybe take a half-day off to go to the beach on a Saturday? My concerns lie in the work-life balance area. What do you do to make sure you're still doing normal things young people do? I'm scared of missing out. I'm an emotional person, and this kinda stuff bothers me. I do not want to hold my breath for years and put my life on hold. I refuse.
My school has multiple weekly exams the first two years, if that makes a difference. As of now, I'm into radiology, so I know I have to do pretty well in school as well, which I know makes a difference.
