DECISION TIME!

The time that most of us doctors at my level dislike has arrived.

Yeap, it is decision making time. The much dreaded job application has began. Now, I have to decide what I want to specialise in.

hmm.....is it respiratory? diabetes/endocrinology? gastro?

well, definitely not cardiology...neurology... renal...

or, is medicine what i really want to do for the rest of my career as a doctor??

or, should I switch to something that doesnt involved so much medicine, ie, psychiatry?

or, should I switch to something less frustrating, and more lifestyle-friendly job of GP?

or, should I go to a specialty where I do abit of everything...like acute medicine?


I really hate filling in forms...I hate deciding on things like this. The thought of choosing one specialty and the thought that I might not like it in the end is rather frightening. And, even if I want to do that particular specialty, I might not get the job at all....

Imagine, each deanery only has about a maximum of 3 available spaces for each specialty...
competition is tough.

arrghh....
