What if you do not get into medical or MBBS?
Why do students choose Fsc pre-medical? Mainly it is to become a doctor. Yesterday the MDCAT exam was conducted which thousands of students attempted. Under this situation, a hard competition among students takes place and the admission criteria for MBBS has become tough nowadays. We see there are limited seats available in the medical colleges throughout Pakistan and only a handful few would be selected and would proceed with their MBBS degree.
Thousands of students would be left with the dilemma of choosing the right career path for themselves.
The first thing to keep in mind is not to panic or lose hope in this situation. There are a lot of alternative mode of studies waiting for you that will also offer you a reasonable career in the medical field and could provide you a better position, career or money than a being a doctor would. Do not doubt yourself. You have your own place and skills that would contribute to the world around you and provide you with personal growth.
Your first step should be self analysis and insight. What are your interests in the medical field? What are your priorities? What skills and strengths do you possess? Which area do you prefer to work in?
Related to medical programs, generally you could choose a program based on these areas you want to continue in
