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)?

    MaKa32 im seriosly passionate about boxing and thinking of going pro when I turn like 21 or 22. I cannot imagine myself studying every time. I have to live my life and travel and do my hobbies

    jinx_58 what work do you do in engineering ? how much free time do you have ? are you happy ? are there depressed students in engineering ?

      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.

      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

          Mina I just want to have enough time to train for my passion which is boxing. I don't mind working a lot as long as I don't have to compromise

          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

            Mina I would want to be a neurosurgeon. I am thinking of going pro in boxing when I turn around 21 or 22 which is gonna be 4 or 5 years after I complete year 12. after turning pro I am thinking of signing the olympic contract

              Ash444 It takes around 14 to 16 yrs to become a neurosurgeon

              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

                  Mina yeah . wait do you automatically become a gp once you get bachelor degree ? but if I want to specialise I can't work right ? I would have to do full time specialisation course ?

                    Mina both of my parents want me to become a doctor. my brother says do what you love, doesn't matter what

                    Yes u become a go automatically with a bachelor degree

                      Ash444 if u want to be a neurosurgeon u’ll have to put in a lot more work and time and effort. U r gonna have to expect to study up to the age of 28 and maybe start work when 30. If i was u i would become a gp which means get a bachelor degree and then later in my life when i want to continue studying become a neurosurgeon. (Remember every doctor becomes a gp first bcuz a bachelor degree automatically makes u a gp depending on the program ur in)

                        I hope this helps. Gl
