Proceed to being a doctor or nah?
I'm planning to take up medicine after respiratory therapy. Pros and cons? Thoughts? Is it even worth it?

I can't say I know anything about being a doctor so I can't really provide you with any pros or cons but I would recommend that you pursue it if it's something that appeals to you. So many people realise way to late that they should have joined a certain career path and are unable to get involved with it later down the line.

You have a point. I'm still young and I love studying. I guess I'll be a doctor then.

(LOL as if it's that easy)

I can't pretend to know your current situation, I'm just saying that if you've got your foot in the door already you might as well at least try going through it. I can't imagine it's an easy career path to pursue but I'm assuming you knew that going in anyway.

You will be more hot with your course taken. Are you really a gal? Lol.

It all comes down to you if you feel like its worth it. Continuing to study to become a doctor really is a commitment that' is expensive, stressful, and long and you don't get to become your own boss until like your 3rd year of practice after graduating 6 years of med school later. Once you get yourself settled though, that's where you feel all your hard work paying off.

I say unless you're 100% and not questioning yourself or your ability to commit and finish it, don't do it.

Get that pharmaceutical job girl. Haha.
Nah but, idk about being a doctor. I wanted to when I was younger but I think i just wanted to somehow brute force my way through my enormous fear of death? Idk. I think i'm gonna learn some languages with decently popular trade countries and just try and roll with that
