Over there pple complain about mental health and long hours.

Why make life so difficult for yourself

If got money best is to study Med in uk

Easy easy get into a speciality training

Work there a few years after your CCT

Come back to SG as con.

Everything easy, study life not stressful, speciality training life also easy

What changed?
Too much stuff to memorize?
Medical exams are pretty stupid now that I think about it. Especially these non procedural ones.
Is just memory.
Maybe the diagnostic questions got to think a bit.
But when it comes to what will you do next? Ix? Rx?
Is all memory. Is a checklist.
Waste time memorizing.
We all know after several years will forget.
Refer once in a while. Especially those not common one.
Even examiner also cannot remember by heart.
