Proud to be a Doctor!

Hi lads!!!
I surfed the net and got some credible points regarding why we should be a doctor. The privilege of being a doctor is given below.As U.S is the forerunner in all fields, I give you the privilege of being a doctor in U.S

The U.S. Department of Labor classifies all doctors as physicians and surgeons. Most doctors invest 10 to 17 years or more to preparing for a medical career. This includes four years of undergraduate school followed by medical school and internships. People who spending all of this time getting ready for a career in the medical field gain numerous advantages when they launch their career as a doctor.

Job Stability

One advantage of becoming a doctor is job stability. As long as there are people, sickness and disease in the world, doctors are needed. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, there were 691,000 doctors employed in the United States in 2010. The department predicts a 24 percent increase in that number between 2010 and 2020, an increase of 168,300 jobs. This compares with an average job growth for all occupations of 14 percent. Doctors can start their own private practices instead of waiting on a medical facility to hire them.
Income

Another advantage of becoming a doctor is that you are well paid. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median pay for doctors is $90 per hour, $187,199 annually. The bottom 10th percentile earns $55,190 annually. The mean hourly wage for doctors is $88.78 hourly, $184,650 annually. The highest paying state for doctors is Mississippi, with a mean wage of $112.80 hourly, $234,620 annually. The remaining top five highest-paying states include, in order, South Dakota, Minnesota, New Hampshire and Maine. The median pay for primary care doctors is $202,392 annually. The median pay for speciality care doctors is $356,885 annually.

Recognition

Recognition is another advantage that comes with being a doctor. Doctors are viewed as lifesavers and get a lot of respect in the community, especially from individuals they have provided health care to. Doctors build bonds with families in the community as they help to deliver babies and treat sick loved ones. Sometimes, a doctor is so admired that she becomes the family doctor and treats members of the family for generations.

Hi medical students of my state!
I am damn sure that we are the most luckiest of all other medical students of our country as we don't have any entrance examinations for the admission in our medical colleges.All we need is just full cut off marks.the syllabus of higher secondary examination is quite easy in the view of exams.I guess that you all prepare for your exams with the help of blueprint.once again I'm denoting that we are the most luckiest of all as the question paper setters always ask the repeated questions.We constrict ourselves with just physics,chemistry,mathematics as they are enough for our cut off.Anyhow,perfect planning for preparing exams will surely lead you to success i.e., getting admission in government medical colleges.
Congrats lads!
when you are searching for this blog,I hope that you all may be in your looong  vacation after your board exams.You will be dazed in this holidays as previously you would be writing your monthly,weekly,slip,fortnight,cycle,revision tests and then you would be idle.If you are from 'Namakkal' schools you will easily experience the thing which I explained above.First few months of the holidays will not be boring.But when your seat in the medical college is confirmed and all the admission processes are over you will be conditioned to lay dormant for a month or two.This is the valuable period where you can make yourself prepared for your professional course.You will be eager to wear your apron and stethoscopes.stethoscopes. That's usual.You all must also try to concentrate on your academics.I would say that the basic physiology and other basic stuffs don't need any teachers as the are like stories.So,It's better to read some of the medical first year books even before the commencement of the course.The purpose of my blog is to make an acknowledgment of some knowledge mines(books).Probably you all may have a smartphone.So.I will share the links of first year medical books that are available for free in net in  pdf format.Before that as a guide to first year M.B.,B.S ,here's a blog link which you may find useful.
