- You take forever explaining to people how long you’ll be in school for, and realise you’ll get a medical doctor title the same time your friend gets a PhD doctor title.

- You contemplate anything between dropping out and suicide after you finish each exam, even before knowing the results.

- You get depressed and emotional just thinking about how bad a doctor you’ll become in a few years.

- You answer every question with, “Hmm (pretending to think for a second), I don’t know.” And you know the most correct answer is, “It depends, sir.”

- You instantly feel that you want to bang your head against the wall whenever someone says “You’re a medical student? You must be very smart then!”, because it’s an unbearable accusation.

- Your friend/cousin zooms in front of you with his brand new car and treats you to lunch with his own paycheck and on top of that, talks about property and houses to buy. And you’re still struggling to buy second hand reference books. (T.T)

- You have exams in a few days and when you try doing practice questions, you don’t know what to do with your pen besides underlining the key words in the question.

- Conversations with people involve “So tell me what happened.”, “So how does that make you feel?”, and “I understand it must be very difficult for you.”

- You have a peak moment in life when a senior says “good” or “well done”; it’s so relieving to know you’re not a complete drain on society. ()

- You’re content knowing that you actually do lead a normal and sane life. Even if it’s just a few hours in a day, while you’re asleep. (Hahaha..)

- You wash your hands after meals and the loo using the 6-step technique. (Not.. YET)

- You’re secretly happy that the really smart guy stopped medical school and start complotting who next to eliminate. Just so the normal distribution skews to the left so you won’t fail. (*evil smirk*)

- Your roommate, housemate, neighbour, boyfriend, girlfriend, any close friends and practically everybody are not spared from being your simulated patient.

- Getting a B is actually pretty darn good.Passing is already very good

- You often mumble to yourself, “F***! Am I supposed to know that?” as soon as you see or hear about some disease/symptom/sign that you completely have no clue about. Then you blame it on the professor for not teaching you that.
