The ortho con from 5 or 6 or 6 years ago I know cleared 320k as a post 2x hmdp knee/hip con. Maybe with the recent adjustment is 350k or 360k equivalent.
That's fine. The surgical con deserve his paycheck
He work hard to get there and he is really good. I'm no where that standard
I didn't work very hard la. I didn't suffer as a mo to get into a competitive residency. Just apply and got fm liao
FM residency was quite shitty but only for 1.5 years when doing the major rotations. Did quite badly during residency also. Need to be out on performance improvment plan but ok lo, pd quite supportive.
After that cruise.
R4 chiong half a year clear exams.

I would say maybe reward per unit effort quite high.
U all like to say specialist pays well, but U good enough and willing or able to work hard enough to go all the way or not.
At what price? How many Ent , ortho wannabe didn't get in? Life very stress to always sark the balls of the consultant lei.
Get in liao, how much stress . I've seen a few ortho ressie drop out.
One Mo did Ent rotation for 6 years before he gets in. It was his last straw liao.
Internal med resident so burnt out and disillusion that all she want is to finish their bond and go gp land because no energy to fight for senior residency.
Can I ask, according to you, life and pay sounds decent for mmed fm AC. Can I ask why are there so many seniors still leaving after mmed? To be fair, not many left immediately post mmed, but I would say after 3-4 years, at best 30-40% of the whole batch (less than half) remains in the public system.
