Great video. Here’s my story: - 20 years applied mathematician - 10 years management - 20 years software enginneer At age 74, temporarily unemployed due to project cancelation. Considering my options. Hope to find something new over the summer (As I write this, it’s early June.) Bottom line: Like and agree with your vid.

I agree with him 💯. I am 66 and still working. I love my job. My husband is retired and he loves being home. He cleans the house, does yard work, laundry, etc. I enjoy my days off and PTO as much as anyone but I wouldn’t want to be home everyday. This is my second career. I’ve been with this company 16 years. I plan to stay as long as I enjoy it. Then I’ll do something else. I initially retired at 43. I did volunteer work and that wasn’t for me. I would often get very little done and nothing to show for my day. I enjoy having a purpose more than hobbies, etc. When I’m off, my husband often comments on how fast the days go. I say, “See, you should work. The days go slower at work”! 😭 The important thing is to do what you love!

I agree, but it is only if you have nothing to retire to. I retired last year from "Corporate America" & during my working years I just wanted out. It's truly a rat race. The dirtiest rat gets the cheese. It took about a year for me to figure what I wanted because now I have my freedom. Guess what? I just want more freedom. But now I can control the type of freedom I'll have and I control how I will achieve it.

Hi, I just wanted to give you some more intel that I feel was missed in this video about western med sci. On paper, it seems like a great program where 30% of the people get into med school. But in reality the number is far lower. Western accepts over a thousand people in the program and during the first 2 years, they rule out more than half the students. The 30% acceptance rate is calculated after hundreds of people dropped out. In reality its less than 10% of the med sci students who get accepted to med school. Western also tanks your GPA in the first 2 years, meaning it is very difficult to apply to any med schools besides western med school (which only looks at 2 years instead of 4). 10% acceptance rate is still pretty good compared to other programs, but its something that most students don't know until they are in the program.

Your cautioning is more from financial burden and returning back to Canada for practice. There are more choices available for IMGs in Europe and elsewhere after graduation. If someone is determined to be a good doctor, sure they can make it as an IMG either in Canada or in Europe, Australia, Newzealand, this is the positive spin I would add to your observations. Thank you for covering the nitty gritty in a short video.

YOU may think you'll never retire, but your company may have other ideas. I was downsized out of my job at 67, along with a dozen other people all over 55. After my "involuntarily retired" I had a nervous breakdown and went to outpatient mental health treatment for quit awhile. I finally sold my condo and entered a seniors facility and have never been happier. I have a great community of friends and we visit together, eat together and just have fun. I also read and do blanket-making for foster kids. When I was working I couldn't trust a soul, and the backbiting and nastiness were ever-present. My job involved far too much boring and purposeless activity and I often came home too exhausted to have any kind of a life. I'm 75 today and eagerly looking forward to the rest of my life.

Dani I think I’m in a very similar position to you. I live in Saskatchewan and got an offer for biomed science in my home province at usask. But I also got an offer for med sci . Which one would I be able to get higher gpa/ prepare for med school in. It’s not really clear online where I can get higher marks in and prepare in.
@DaniKilani
@DaniKilani 2 жыл бұрын
I don’t know much about USask’s program, but the programs themselves probably aren’t all that different from an academic perspective. It’s going to be difficult to find a good comparison across the two since very few people have experienced both programs. When I was choosing between similar programs, one factor I really considered was my fit with the university in terms of things like student life, accommodations/residence, scholarships, opportunities for research (e.g. undergraduate student grants), clubs, volunteer opportunities, the city… Keep in mind gpa is not the only thing that matters. Also consider whether having family/friends nearby is a necessity since becoming homesick happens to a lot of people who go away for university although it is manageable once you settle into things. Hope this helps!!

Hey Rhea, Med Sci isn’t really catered exclusively to premeds, I think it would be a good option for a career in research/pharmacology. On the other hand, Health Sci doesn’t really cover the hard sciences (biology, organic chemistry, biochemistry, physics…) enough, so I wouldn’t recommend it for what you’re interested in 🙂
