BigCyp is going to Medical School

[Simple Simon]

Annoying accents.....and funnel web spiders....pass

But it has got Booty?

[BigCyp]

Why buy into this nonsense?  We all know it's never going to happen. Not even remotely.

 

Well seeing as I have given 6 weeks written notice to my 'boss', arranged where me and my colleagues are going for my leaving party, passed the exam to do my foundation year, and am not going out tonite with my mates because I am revising for my UKCAT exam, you can be pretty sure I am serious about it loser

While we are on the subject, did you ever pay for that damp survey?

I should point out that postgraduate entry to medicine is extremely competitive.

Even doing undergraduate medicine as an adult with former work and family commitments is profoundly challenging (i believe you're doing the 5 year undergrad ye?), so this is a huge achievement.

People talk a lot of shit about medicine, how the hours are brutal and the work is grossly challenging, but if you choose prudently the right specialty and the right area of the country, then the job is extremely personally and financially rewarding.

My only regret is having competition in the doctor/bodybuilding niche I currently occupy.

No one has ever refered to my accent as annoying. And you get used to the spiders and beautiful wildlife.

NO!

Lol, what do you take me for mate 

Last email I got from them was the one I posted here.

When I became quite ill a few years back, I came across a few very terrible doctors who really impacted me in a negative way at the time. It pretty much cemented my resolve to become one of the good ones one day - here I am taking the first steps.

'Niche' - do you sew up BB bumholes after they have done their private 'pose downs' to obtain 'sponsorship money'

BigCyp revolutionizing the medical field as we speak.
Soon doctors will wear fanny packs, cameo glitter XS T shirts, and combat boots all the while healing cancer with pinky up concentration curls.
Entering Atlantis through the anabolic window!

You Sir, are a  true scholar - soon a 33rd degree practitioner of peace and honorary "frater fabae fartos" of the Dixie Falcon lodge.

I'd just started seeing a woman, about 8 weeks in, when a spot appeared on my dick.  Naturally, my first instinct was to plant her in some remote location but, since I was working away, homicide (which nevertheless may have favoured the alibi) was inconvenient.  Instead, I go on down to the local UK emergency room, in Lincoln I think, and drop my drawers.  

The pommy-geeza in the lab coat is an amiable, chatty sort and decides to take a full history while I hang there like a frightened turtle, and he really seems to enjoy getting ready to put on the surgical gloves without ever actually getting around putting them on.  Eventually, he does, and I lay down as per instructions while he glides alongside and clasps my weiner with an aire of all the professionalism he could manage.  

I can't remember what I ate that day or if I was exposed to some peculiar or extraterrestrial allergen but my genitals basically made a run for it.  It wasn't especially cold in there but things were more or less at scale model size and retreating fast.  Unphased, he takes a brave grip, elongates the member like the first determined Englishman to wrestle with a specimen of india rubber for the betterment of Queen & Country, and proceeds to peer as if through a glass, darkly.

"Is that it there?"
"Yes"
"Aye.  Aye.  I see it."
"So..."
"I'd like to try something.  If ye don't mind."

I was feeling pretty confident, despite appearances.  There weren't any scalpels poking proud of his sleeves and it was clear that, although he was a youngish man and not unattractive, I wasn't exactly ripe for horseplay.  

You've got about eight words in your vocabulary in this sort of situation.  I selected 'ok.'  He was probably a cultured chap, opera, fine dining, engaging conversationalist, etc, but here was obliged to lean in under fluorescent NHS lighting and squeeze, as one would a zit, a small measure of pus from a curious white spot at the root of an American tourist's shrunken penis.

And that's how I discovered that I didn't have VD.  Stark truth.  But he saved a life that day.

Be gentle with us, Cyp.

Very purseptive.

[denarii]

my sister did post grad medicine, it was 4 years at st georges in tooting with only the first two in class.

[dr.chimps]

Very admirable, Cyp. Kudos! Nice to see someone trying to effect a positive difference. Hippocratic addendum: 'Do no harm, except to deserving tiny tits, and Romanian scam artists.'   

[ESFitness]

Ahh gotcha.

To obtain an MD in America its 4 year of university and 4 years of residency.

gf's in med school. far as I know it's 4yrs university, 2 yrs med school (academics), then your residency for anywhere from 2-6yrs... for md, I dunno about residency. but I'm fairly certain it's 4yrs plus 2yrs med school.

That's here. They do things differently over there. BAs turning into MAs, Oxbridge-wise; right to Law/Doc degrees, etc.

[denarii]

post grad medicine is 2 years in class and 2 in hosp, then you are a qualified junior doc for at least 2 years doing general hosp medicine in different depts. then you normally pick a specialisation. my sis went for GP, i think its another 2 yrs of general med in hosp and then 2 or 4 years of GP work before final qualification.

Oh don't get me wrong, with 700,000 (or something like that) of us in the UK there are bound to be some fucking abysmal doctors. I work with some currently I wouldn't let touch me with a spoon, never mind a scalpel blade. But it is the nature of any mass industry (such as healthcare) that some people exist within it merely to keep the wheels turning, nothing more.

I'm glad you're letting a negative experience influence you in a positive way, you're taking a higher path and I do admire that.

As for sewing up bumholes, I haven't yet had the pleasure, but I would certainly welcome the opportunity to supplement my meagre nhs salary by sweeping up the debris from a bodybuilder's traumatic "schmoe-ing".

Ahh gotcha.

To obtain an MD in America its 4 year of university and 4 years of residency.

In America, to obtain an MD, you have to first obtain a 4-year Bachelor degree with a concentration in Pre-med, which covers all the necessary sciences for admission into med school (typically 2 semester of each of the following: biology, chemistry (Organic + Inorganic), and physics).

After you obtain your Bachelors Degree in Pre-Med, you then apply to Med School, but must take your MCAT's first.

Once you obtained a decent enough score (35 or higher) on the MCAT's and have your 4-year BS degree (with a good GPA 3.75 or higher), you typically can get into a good Medical School.

Medical School is then 4 years long.

Once you finish Medical School, you match into a particular residency. The most common one to match with is an internal medicine residency, which is a 3-year long residency.

After you complete your internal medicine residency, you can always opt to specialize in something like lets say Cardiology. Cardiology then requires a 3-year fellowship. Once you complete that, you are considered a Cardiologist.

So, in summary, assuming you want to become a Cardiologist (Medical Doctor Specializing on the Heart), it will take you this long:

4 years (Undergrad pre-med) + 4 years (Med School) + 3 years (Internal Medicine Residency) + 3 years (Cardiac Fellowship) = 14 years total from the time you finish high school.

If you already have a Bachelors degree with all the prerequisite sciences and have taken the MCAT's, you can then get into Med School and you can end up at the same end in 10 years (4yrs-med school + 3 yrs internal med resid + 3 yrs cardiac fellowship = 10yrs).

"1"

P.S. Not every residency takes 3 yrs. Some residencies can take as little as 3 years, while others can be up to 5 yrs long.

Example:

Internal Medicine = 3 year residency

Anesthesia = 4 year residency

Orthopedic Surgery = 5 year surgical residency

** Since things like Cardiac & Gastroenterology are sub-specialties of internal medicine, they typically require 3 extra years of what's called a fellowship ON TOP of the initial 3 year internal medicine residency. So, if you want to become a gastroenterologist, after you finish med school, you have to do 6 extra years of training (3 years of internal medicine + 3 years of Gastro Fellowship).

G4P seems so much easier and more logical.

Just thought I would let my nearest and dearest bros know about a big career change I am embarking on.

At 29 years of age, I officially hate my job (well paid, but in finance in a shipping firm)

I literally drag myself to work, as the only incentive is paying my mortage and bills.

I've wanted to study medicine and become a General Practitioner since I was about 10, but decided to take a different course of study at 16 yo

It's now or never, I will be qualified at 35 and a G.P. at 38 (potentially 25-30 years in this career).

So as of this september I will be doing a 'foundation year' and then a 5 year MBBS
