To medical students in the UK,

I have a question. Few of my friends study medicine in the UK and I've noticed they seem to have alot of free time. And no its not just this covid time, its been going on like this for a while.

Which is surpsing since I'm usually drowning in my studies.

They aren't doing pre-med, its actual med school. They told me that for the first 5 years their exams are open book, which means they can use textbooks and the Internet to finds answers during the exam.

So I wanted to know, how exactly would you become a competent doctor this way? Because if you guys just copy off stuff , you don't really retain that information for long.

How do you guys judge who qualifies for residency? I'm not being rude, I know UK has good doctors ( kinda why a lot of people went there) , but how exactly do you study?

There aren't any grades either yeah? Its just you either pass or fail. I heard you usually have a few questions which are like 5-6 marks and you type out the answer and that's it?

US has has pass-fail system and plus they have USMLE which is pretty hard and has to be taken after the third year if I'm not mistaken, so they study for that and hence make up for any gaps.

UK has Plab? Is that exam for the entire 5 year course?

How do you graduate med school though? What makes you worthy of graduating since you've just copied off the answers the whole time?

What exaclty do your rotations from year 3 consist off? How did you guys manage studying courses in the first 2 years of med school whereas most 0laces we do 3 years due to the depth of the syllabus?

Please note I'm not being rude or anything. I'm just really curious as to how this whole med school thing works in the UK.

Please answer or if you know someone, let them know they can answer because I can't seem to wrap my head around this concept.

I'm sorry if this comes of as being mean, it's not my intention.

If you have no knowledge of the above, could you atleast reblog this so someone who does can see it.

I'm tired of my friends in the UK looking down on me , making me feel like my education is useless. I'm tired of them rubbing it in that their international degree is worth it and mine isn't.

How is it they have the world in their palms of their hands whereas the rest of us are pulling all nighters.

I don't know want to bash anyone, nor want to rub it in anyones face regardless of what the answer is. I just want to know what exactly is going on there.

THE YELLOW WALLPAPER

I recently read the short story THE YELLOW WALLPAPER written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman . The story involves mainly about how mental health was treated in those days and status of a woman on the society back then. The story is based on real reference.

Though the story was written in 1890's , how mental health is treated now - a - days is still quite relatable. A large section of society doesnot take depression as a serious illness. And when a person is diagonsed by the same instead of medications they are told to take rest and are prohibited from any kind of physical and mental exercise, same as the author was told that rest is the cure and was told by her husband not to indulge in any kind of writing as she will get more sick whereas writing was a sole thing which provided her solace and as a result in the end she was driven to absolute madness .

It's a high time that we should come together and help those suffering from this .

Let's be kind 😊.

Ps : I tried to draw a woman with the yellow wallpaper (#digitaldrawing )
