No job is more important than a doctor. Every profession in the field of human health deserves respect. However, before becoming a true master of his craft, the future Aesculapius must go a long way in studying at a medical university.
Learning Features
In fact, the life of medical students is full of difficulties. Of course, learning is easy for many - one of the main conditions for this is a love of medicine. It’s hard to get used to a huge amount of information: students need to attend a large number of various lectures and seminars. In the first courses, the day of the medical student lasts from 9 to 6-7 pm. However, when a student comes home, he cannot relax. Again, you need to learn something, prepare homework. While students of law or economics departments have the opportunity to enjoy life, students of medical universities spend weeks learning, literally not seeing white light.
Non-core subjects
Many students are annoyed by the fact that they have to deal with those subjects that are not directly related to medical practice. Instead of having a rest before lunch and relaxing, in the first courses you have to sit in lectures on economics, law, history and others. However, gradually the course program of medical students becomes more and more specialized. Only those items that are directly related to medical practice remain. And it always pleases students.
pros
Students also note the advantages that are characteristic of student life. Starting from 4 years of study, lectures and classes are conducted by courses. For example, within a month, students undergo only gynecology. This is convenient for training, since in the course of such a course, the entire discipline is fully covered. Also, students have enough time to walk with friends, have some fun.
Interesting facts from the life of students
Doctors are very special people. They say that a medical professional can be easily identified by a special facial expression. Like professional doctors, medical students also belong to this caste - they are very different from others. What distinctive features are characteristic of those who study in honey?
- All students are required to wear white robes. And they really love this duty - freshmen love to go out and surprise passers-by with their appearance. And in the grocery store they can easily be mistaken for SES employees. True, no one takes young auditors seriously. But by the second year, the white coat so annoys students that they wear it in extremely rare cases.
- Another thing that students like to shock people around them with is anatomy textbooks. Ordinary books, in which you can find images of internal organs, you will not surprise anyone. But with regard to pathological anatomy, then those around can be plunged into horror - does this fragile lady really want to become a pathologist?
- Medical students are characterized by fearlessness. With a girl who studies in honey, you can go to any movie. If she is not afraid of the most bloody scene - in front of you is really a future doctor. Some may even let out comments like: "What nonsense, where the vampire bit him, there can be no carotid artery." By the way, a little about vampires: if you come across a man with red eyes on the road, do not rush to grab garlic and aspen pegs. Most likely, this is a medical student who spent all night preparing for the exam.
- Students in honey are mostly people with high intellectual abilities. Indeed, in the process of mastering huge amounts of information, new neural connections are constantly being formed in their brain. If someone is engaged in pumping up muscles, then students of honey pump, first of all, the brain. They really have a phenomenal memory and a well-developed ability to think logically.
- Students of medical schools and universities have a very developed sense of humor. It is unlikely that you can hear as many funny stories about someone else as about future doctors. And they are also born storytellers of chilling stories.
Funny stories
There are many funny stories from the life of medical students. Just as it happens with stories about doctors, they pass from mouth to mouth. For example, one joke is known:
Exam. The teacher asks the student the last question: “And now, darling, tell me: is the gluteus maximus muscle masticatory or facial?”. Frightened to death, the student replies: "Mimic ... mimic." “That's when you learn to smile with it, then you will get a credit,” the examiner answered.
And here is another story.
The student asks the teacher a question:
- Vasily Petrovich, what do you think is worse: insanity or sclerosis?
- Definitely, sclerosis.
- Why?
- Because when a person has sclerosis, then he completely forgets about insanity.
Real life features
It should be noted that in reality students of medical schools are forced to face many difficulties. So, the vast majority of honey graduates in Russia never undergo practical training on real corpses. As a rule, they are replaced by plastic layouts. Experts are convinced that allowing doctors to work after this practice is a big risk.
Since Hippocrates, the process of training doctors has been inextricably linked with practice on corpses. It turned out that organizing such a practice in the 21st century is too much a luxury for the vast majority of Russian medical universities. In many of them, Russian medical students continue to study on simulators made of plastic. Even the invention of I. Gaivoronsky, who was able to significantly reduce the cost of the plastination procedure — the transformation of a corpse into a biological exhibit that can be used in medical experiments many times — did not help improve the situation.
What should students practice on?
Often, honey graduates have to study at the workplace. After all, medical schools are not required to provide practice on corpses. Medical students must study on plastic dummies. The plate invented by Gayvoronsky is optional. This material, however, is considered one of the best for training. After all, he does not smell anything, and you can not get a dangerous infection from him, like from a corpse.
There are cases when medical students inadvertently introduced HIV infection from a corpse into their bodies and fell ill with it themselves. Now practice on real corpses or using a plate can only afford the most prestigious universities. The mannequin, as far as it does not look natural, can in no way replace a real corpse. They, according to experts, are suitable only for filming a movie.
