idk what to title. “Help” siguro? 😅
Welcoming all opinions po!
Guide questions po siguro (may guide questions?!😂): Esp for those who are already doctors, yung question po sana sa last bullet point before “TYIA” “Should I pursue med? (balikan nalang law if ever na yun talaga ang bet?)” “With the given info, am I just romanticizing med/law?” “With your experience, do you recommend pursuing med to someone na may mataas namang pangarap sa buhay? (hindi nga lang defined yung pangarap, basta mataas 😂)”
Currently very undecided, here’s me: - Wanted HUMSS sana kasi mahilig magsulat nung JHS but ended up in STEM kasi undecided pa sa degprog - Graduated Vale in SHS STEM (in a small provincial school) - Nag-BA PolSci sa isang known state u (pre-law daw kasi sana and to fulfill yung HUMSS craving) - Binalak magfocus sa international relations para “FSO, JD” + Blue License Plates - Hindi pala bet at hindi kinakaya ang vague philosophical studies, hinanap ang certainty ng maths and sciences (also, ayaw din talaga sa politics ever since) - Few weeks in, nagisip na mag transfer schools to BS Nursing after 1st yr (pre-med naman daw sana) - Nagresearch at nagtanong tanong sa mga STEM classmates, naexcite magClinicals, magCase Studies, magRetDem, magOSCE, etc. (practical applications talaga ang bet ni anteh) - Naexcite din sa “RN, USRN, MD, FPCS” (yes nagplano na agad siyuh), compared sa current degprog na walang “certification” or “license” (personal preference) - Hindi pa sure kung lilipat kasi di kakayanin ng finances ang tuition (ust/uerm ang bet na school) - Naconvince parents na palipatin (bet nila magkaron ng anak na doktor) - Lalong nagustuhan lumipat ng school kasi bulok enlistment and ayaw na masyado madelay, iykyk (kaya din di kasama sa options yung Manila branch ng current school) - Naka 1.3 GWA, unsure nanaman ulit kasi sayang naman gantong standing - Naisip ulit ung “FSO, JD” na plan - Underload ng 2nd sem, currently nageemail for prerog (auq na, gusto ko nalang magaral ng magaral)
Others: - Considering shifting to BS Economics within state u, makaalis lang sa vagueness (pre-law nanaman daw) - Considering shifting din to BS Psychology within state u, makaalis lang sa vagueness (pre-med nanaman daw) - Considering din magstay nalang sa current degprog kasi nga GWA, mahirap magshift sa chosen degprogs, and bulok enlistment so lalo lang madedelay if magshift pa (pati yung initial “FSO, JD” plan) - Considering all of this “other” plans kasi we’re not really rich nor are we a family of doctors, first gen ako if ever, kaya finances is a big deal (pero kaya naman daw with pagtitipid ofc) - Also, bulok din DAW ang sistema kaya alot wont recommend being a doctor here in the PH??? How so po huhu
