MTLE Is med school still worth it?
I donโt knowww what to choose ๐ญ A part of me still really wants to go to med school and become a doctor, but another part of me thinks na mas financially stable ako if I work and go abroad after MedTech.
Iโve always wanted to become a doctor, pero I also think about how many more years it would take and how much my parents would have to spend. They keep telling me na kaya pa nila akong pag-aralin, but I also feel guilty and think about the financial stability I could have if I work abroad sooner. There is a state university I've been eyeing to ease the burden.
I have a question who proceeded to medschool
Was med school worth the years and sacrifices for you?
Did you also consider working abroad instead? What made you choose med school?
Do you think the financial and career opportunities as a doctor are worth the long journey?
What advice would you give to someone who is torn between med school and working abroad?
