Why do many people say that studying medicine is for themselves, and what are the benefits of studying medicine for themselves?
Netizen one:
What are the benefits of studying medicine for yourself? Simply put, it benefits others.
First of all, please have an objective understanding of studying medicine. In the past year or two, there was no one in the admissions office of a certain medical school, which was later confirmed to be a fake picture. If you don't believe me, please take a look at the admission scores of medical schools near you. Many second and third medical schools have admission scores above the first line and much higher. For example, in 2017, Henan Province, a major province of college entrance examination, scored 484 points for the first grade of science undergraduates, the first admission line of Capital Medical University in Henan was 600 points, and the admission line of Xinxiang Medical College in Henan was 507 points. The data confirms that it is not that no one applies for the medical major, but it is showing a trend of getting more and more difficult to take the entrance examination, especially the clinical medicine major.
Secondly, studying medicine is a profession that lives and learns old, and it is recognized that the older the profession, the more popular it is. Medicine is progressing faster and faster, and it is far from enough to rely on the content of undergraduate study. Therefore, you must develop the habit of lifelong learning. With decades of work and study, you will still be affected after retirement.
Favored by various medical institutions, we can truly do something for the elderly and take care of the elderly.
Again, studying medicine brings convenience to family members, relatives and friends. A family member has a small illness with a headache and a fever, which may be resolved with a phone call, and there is no need to rush to the hospital to queue up for registration. To be the patron saint of family health is also a reflection of personal value.

Why choose medicine?
Because I suffered from a severe cold in the winter of my senior year of high school and continued to receive no treatment. On the second day of the new year, he was taken to the hospital in the county town by his family for treatment and was diagnosed with pneumonia. Because it is difficult for rural families, he was discharged early after 2 weeks of treatment. Regular treatment of pneumonia takes 3 weeks. So my disease is still not getting better. Throughout the second half of my senior year, I had a cough every night in the middle of the night for an hour. I was studying in a rural high school in Shandong. There was no stove, no heating, and no air conditioning in the classroom. The same is true for the dormitory for 6 people. In the night of minus 10 degrees, I coughed for an hour in the cold dormitory, under the cold bed, and that uncomfortable feeling has left a deep impression on me to this day. At that time, my mother took me to see a doctor at a different village doctor as soon as I had a rest day, because my family really didn’t have the money to go to a big hospital to see a doctor.
Therefore, a big reason for choosing to study medicine is that at least it can cure my own disease. In fact, I figured out my problem when I started taking a basic medical course in my senior year. I'm just allergic to some kind of antipyretic analgesics. In other words, the drugs like ibuprofen prescribed by the village doctor were the source of my constant coughing.
Netizen three:
I chose medicine with such a little thought in the first place. I didn't even think about saving lives and wounds. When I first graduated, I was in the first year of training, and I graduated with a doctorate. I only had more than 2,000 yuan per month, which was not even as good as a waiter. Coupled with the incidents of injured doctors that broke out from time to time, I, who was originally not motivated, also had the same confusion stage as the title owner. Later, I figured out why studying medicine is like studying philosophical questions like "where do I come from and where do I go?"
On the contrary, it is better to think this way. Now that you have embarked on the path of studying medicine, what should you do in the future in the face of the current doctor-patient environment? According to my analysis, there are several ways out:
Adhere to the original intention and continue to walk, no matter what the external environment is. After all, relying on his own medical skills to help the patient, the patient's thank you still fills the heart with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.
Change your original intention and change your career. Now that Internet medical care is so hot, regular doctors are very popular and receive generous treatment.
Save the country with a curve, find a way to go abroad to continue to be a doctor. This road is difficult to walk, but more and more people go out. Not only can you realize the ideal of practicing medicine, but also have social status, personal safety, and rich income. See Canadian doctors collectively protesting pay rise.
Promote medical reform. This is not something ordinary people can do.
