There's more than age that will hinder you getting a good job if u think like this now.....

Hope this is a timepass thread... Doctor without completing MBBS? 26 already? Sorry if i sound rude. This country needs more doctors than it needs CAs, sir.

Dear Mr Singh,

you are already in a great profession then why do U want to switch over. Mr G K is very much right. In this country we needs more doctors than CA.

I also advice you to not change your profession, as concern about the salary, you can also get very handsome salary as a doctor and goodwill also

I find this thread equally funny & shocking...

I mean, didnt u have any aspiration in the med profession after +2, when u had beaten so many other candidates for that seat in ur med college?

Its a simple question, if u cannot remain true to the profession u have given 5 years of ur life, then will it be advisable to venture into other fields?

and Even After CA, what wud it be? U can get a B.Tech ; then a Law degree along with CS and finally may be a Bachelors in Architecture!

But then, when u hav lost the passion for the Med profession, u might as well give a thought abt other fields. the choice which u can justify. Moreover, MBBS field also offers several new options as of now. You dont hav to necessarily sit & treat patients in a 10' by 10' chamber. U can join the pharma industry, even pharma-research KPOs! (If dealing with patients is one of the problems)

And even I hope that this is a TimePass thread.
