Healthcare Republican Alternative -- What do you Think of it?

We Answered:

I think its a good idea and a start in the right direction. (anything that is in a different direction than obama care is a good thing!)

I think there are other issue's to address as well like the 200 billion the goverment now pays for illegals to get free health care. That only covers a qaurter of the bill that the hospital's have to eat.So in other words hospitals eat 600 billion a year in unpaid bills for illegals.

Problem with Parents...?

We Answered:

On one hand.

Who cares what your parents think? If you want pre-med... go pre-med. Of course take whatever money they give you, but don't ask them, just get loans and government money and/or work a job like a normal person. If you just make the choice and do it, there isn't anything negative anyone can reasonably say.

On the other hand, if you didn't pass your AP courses, you might not be cut out for such a difficult course of study. Maybe, just maybe your parents are actually trying to save you some trouble and guide you into a field that's more your speed.

Think about both of those... then make a choice. Easy.

Paul Said:

Should I drop-out from medical school?

We Answered:

Do you think you are the only one who feels that way?

Not a chance!

Medical school is hard. It's stressful, depressing, challenging, lonely, tiring and just plain maddening.
And it doesn't get better.

But one day you will get your medical license. One day you will be able to chose the type of medicine you want to practice. One day you might save a baby's life who might have died otherwise. One day you might comfort an old man when his wife dies of cancer. One day a child might hug you as their tears dry because you made them "all better".

Medicine is hard. But it can also be more emotionally rewarding than any other profession.

Your choice.

How can I prepare for a medical career?

We Answered:

Honestly, it sounds to me like you are already on the perfect path to achieve your dreams. It's rare to find a 14 year old with your level of intelligence and drive. Everything you are doing so far will absolutely lead to your dream. You may want to find out if there is any volunteer work you can do when you have some spare time. Volunteer work, especially in the field of medicine, will always stand out on resumes and college applications. Good luck with your ventures!
