Go to school in the US if you are a US citizen and want to do residency/work in the US.

This sounds pretty terrible, but if it's important to you then good luck.

what do you think?

If you can't celebrate someone else's achievement then just keep your head down and improve your own life. No need to throw shade at them.

Usually you buy online or if there's an overzealous upper year med student who bought their own personal ophthalmoscope and realized it was a waste of money, they'll be happy to sell it to you.

Close this website. Go enjoy high school.

Do you feel a compulsive need for others to think you are the smartest person in the room? Do you love working inhumane hours? Do you have the personality of a walking textbook?

Get rid of it.

Honestly you don't know what it's like being in medicine until you're knee deep in it and feel like you can't get out. Shadowing won't tell you anything. Are you sure you want to go into an astronomical amount of debt pursuing medicine in the US while deferring your income, being the lowest rung on the totem pole, having no autonomy over your schedule, and dealing with the uncertainty of what specialty is right for you, whether you'll match to what you want, possibly having to move across the country for training and having to do the whole application process plus interviewing that c

Lmao dude if that's the position you're in right now, then you should RUN not walk AWAY from medicine. Not worth the toil of the application process + medical school/clerkship especially + CaRMS + residency +/- fellowship(s) to maybe land a job and for it to be somewhere that you might not want to be. Low 6 figures + pension + 3 wk paid vacation + no debt = No brainer. Enjoy your hopefully humane hours, evenings/weekends off, spend time with your friends/family/SO and stay connected to your personal interests/hobbies.
