Think very hard about medicine before you apply: do you like people? Are you empathetic? Could you cope with a patient in ED who is suffering a mental health crisis? How do you feel about working nights and weekends? Find out about career progression within medicine - it's many years of training and exams (that cost $$$) before you can apply for a speciality. Eventually the money is good but it is a long time before you start earning a decent wage for the amount of effort and study you will need to put it. In your first year of being a junior doctor, the nurses will be earning more than you and working fewer hours. I would only recommend medicine if you have an absolute passion for it and can't imagine yourself doing anything else with your life.

Ash444 are there any particular reasons why you want to follow one of these careers over another, or over other similar careers (i.e. within these fields)? Have you considered a career that involves both medical studies and engineering (e.g. engineering and biomedical science combined)?

but I also want to help people because I love when people become happy. so that's the hard part. both have their pros and cons but I want to decide once and for all.
_sophiestudies_ i don't mind either. but I want free time
I think engineers have a more eased time but compared to doctors that make less money. If u want to retire soon I would chose a doctor to play it safe but if u want to be working for a longer time with an eased lifestyle an engineer would suit u. Hope this helps
How about medical physics? Like optometry or radiography
What type of doctor would u want to be if u chose that field. From there i can calculate how much time u’ll have for boxing. And what r u leaning towards rn
Maybe if u got a bachelor degree and became a GP u could be able to still pursue boxing
Does ur family have any preferences
Yes u become a go automatically with a bachelor degree
Go means gp
