Medicine 2012...(hopeful entrants) !!

Original post by anonnymous

i'm not mature enough to even handle the responsibility of a doctor/ a family

i don't want one atm, i'm just a kid

I don't think any of us are mature enough just yet. Hopefully, we'll get there after med school.

No. Lol. Some people had to go out because they felt sick, I just kept looking confused like "what a baby comes out of there" then "OMG there is a baby coming out of there that is awesome". For some reason I got :K:

expressions.

When we watched the a childbirth video in bio, everyone was all tense at the woman screaming pushing on the TV, then the baby came out and a girl at the back says in this really dry and flat voice 'it's a boy'.

Ok, work hard :smile:

ps: i've had three disastrous exams, 3 mediocre, 2 no comments, and 1 i thought , hey good

sometimes you feel you do badly,and you do really well

grade boundaries fluctuate, so pretend you never had the exam(you might end up doing well) and concentrate on the one you have.

best of luck, you work hard/i've seen you on the revision forums, so you deserve good grades, you've done the work, just convert it on exam day

:smile:

you being intelligent knew this already, but hey! these are my views

In my opinion yes, as the state to which medicine is unprogressable is so far in the future that it is very unlikely that progress will ever stop. When you consider eradication efforts of diseases such as smallpox, and almost polio, eradication areas in this field are likely to continue for many other infectious diseases such as commonly discussed malaria or even TB. Treatments and diagnostic tools are likely to continue progressing as computers get exponentially more powerful and diagnostic tools get made much smaller and cheaper. The field of antibiotics however does not seem to be likely to progress indefinitely, as the arms race between resistant strains and antibiotics accelerates research in this field, possible drugs available are likely to reach an exhaustion point where no new ones are possible to make, unless research into other areas of treating infection develop.
