    I was worried about my ego and god complex so I did not further my studies in medicine but.. Thankss to Covid, I have changed my plans.
    The sheer incompetence of most countries to deal with the epidemic was shocking.
    Even a quack like me saw that it would be an unmitigated disaster.
    I am considering medical professional degrees that I can finish within about 4 years that offer some sort of autonomy.
    Any suggestions is welcome eg loli wet nurse :sick:

    My advice for preparing for a medical degree, ask your seniors for any of their notes. Read books ahead of time. Get those books from other places than the official stores (They can cost more than hundreds of dollars).
    Oh, and forget about social life, novel updates, and sleep. All you need to do is study as if the college books are your family, lover, and child.

    4 years is usually the absolute minimum in uni over here in the UK. That’s not including any sort of actual medical training and junior doctor stints.

    Dentist has the highest autonomy there is. Other than that you can study pharmacy or physiology.

    Not if you don't take master degree and their internship but you'd less likely find employment in said field without both.

    gynecologist. You could say all your internet usage has been pre-emptively preparing you for for this.

    That was my dream as a kid.
    I read more gynecology books than novels as a kid.
    The first exercise I knew about was the Kegel exercise.
    Getting called a pervert by every girl I know certainly didn't help

    I can be self employed and don't need to earn money with the medical degree.
    Can Dentists threat illnesses unrelated to the teeth? Do they get the same training as General Physicians?

    Nurse, although common people know more about female nurse compare to male one~

    hmm depend on country there variation of diploma or technical medical degree available~ medical degree is not all about become a doctor ya know~
    legally shouldn't as for training this cat forget but iirc dental have shorter time for specialization curriculum compare with other? this cat was did think doctor profession but too costly and not smart enuf while no interest toward nurse and pharmacy~

    I don't believe smart or dumb people exist.
    Excluding mental disability.
    It all comes down to affording quality teachers or tutors

    Nope. At least from what i know. If you're studying just for the sake of studying then pharmacy, physiology or virology is a better course. Or you can just take general physician and then get vet degree as well. I had an acquaintances that get both and make a good living in the countryside.

    If you want to make money off diagnose and surgery then orthopedic or gastroenteritis. This is where your patients were mostly older seniors years.

    Edit.

    I forget but nurse course are shortest but you'd have to take their internships. Only after that you can go through further advanced course. At least from what i know from my friend.

    Sorry but I'm cringing at this, God complex and people who have it think of themselves as literal Gods that's literally the whole point of having it.
    They literally believe that they are some kind of God, like they can't die etc... Things like Gods can do.
    Think of Yagami Light as an example.
    Perhaps superiority complex~?:blobnobully:blobmelt_thumbs

    Um, perhaps physician assistant? (It's a thing in the US and Canada). It's a 2 year degree but I think you need a bachelors going into it? Don't quote me on it~

    https://www.physicianspractice.com/view/physicians-and-their-god-complexes
    https://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/God+complex

    A popular term for a personality flaw commonly seen in physicians, especially surgeons, who perceive themselves as omniscient—i.e., God-like—and thus treat others as mere mortals

    A 5 year old can put in effort but never learn calculus.
    You overestimate effort.

    The same way if a professor wants to screw you over, you won't get an A regardless of your effort

    A Masters degree in Business Administration...? :blob_tilt:

    Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. I meant, how many years did you already put into getting a degree in medicine?

    You want to try "saving" people from Covid, go be a politician. It's not the doctors that are driving the narrative.

    And I won't have to worry about meeting someone I massively dislike in real life.
