Medical School vs Residency Comparison

[@DavidHindin]

Had a blast on this collab and making this video with you! Thanks so much for the feature! 😊

[@MedSchoolInsiders]

Always a pleasure working with you David!

[@douglastalkington]

This gives me chills it's so moving knowing you guys worked soooooo hard to be doctors and you deserve so much respect for your sacrifices. Truly humbles me as a big fan of all doctors and nurses, etc. Thank you very much for being so selfless!!!!

[@mrburgermaster]

It's amazing how much classroom work they cram into the first two years, and how much practice/additional-coursework they cram into the following years. It makes my entire BScN nursing program look easy by comparison.

[@Gillan1220]

In the Philippines - 4 year pre-med course - 4 year medical school then you get your MD degree so you’re called a doctor but without a license yet - 1 year post-graduate internship - Physician Licensure Exam. Once you pass, you can now practice as a General Practitioner - After you get your license, you get 2-3 years residency - 2-3 years of fellowship and subspecialty - then congrats, you are a doctor

[@alisondilauritis559]

Then good luck finding a job in Philippines smh 🤦🏻‍♀️

UP Manila has Intarmed Course.

[@BiHu-ce9fx]

What is intarmed course?

[@5P3C73R]

In Europe, where i am from (Norway), we have this system. - 6 year M.D - specialisation (2 - 5 years, depending on what you want to do) Then you get authorised with a license. Congrats you're a doctor

[@ernestotchere2715]

I Europe its usually 6 years after High school. In the US you need a 4 year bachelor's degree before medical school. That is 4+4 years, then you go into residency.

[@salty_chameleon]

In belgium we have the exact same system

[@rachanathapa4824]

Ernest Otchere they do have a undergrad degree it’s super hard to get in though

[@cloudyy8817]

Same here in Turkey but med school has the highest grade line to get in. It’s super super hard to be accepted to one of them.

[@aneural]

Ukraine has 6 years in Med School, and then 2-3 Year residency, and further specialization is done later

[@nigelfox7844]

Thank you, Med School Insiders for your reply i'm very grateful.

[@fernandasantiago2905]

19, mexican med student, second semester; it would mean the world to me if you could do a video on how to become a licensed doctor in the U.S. (for us who are from other countries); really great content, thanks for everything!

[@avantikapandiyan6835]

For an upcoming video, could you please go over different types of doctors (I know there are way too many to say each one but just general categories) and what you should major in to get the specific job as a doctor you want? Thanks so much, love your videos!

[@thetechdude1132]

What about residency vs practicing doctor now ?

Tired and poor vs well rested and good pay

[@meni8919]

What’s practicing doctor? Is that a general practitioner?

[@ays.939]

menibolena19 it means a doctor that doesn’t need supervision, unlike a resident

[@lilliampumpernickle4655]

menibolena19 A doctor who has finished residency and is getting paid decently well

[@rayanrahmani9838]

[@dr.mustafa3398]

In Turkey, we have this system. - 6 year M.D - specialisation (3 - 5 years, depending on what you want to do) And example of Plastic Surgery first year residency: -15 night shifts (start) 08.00-17.00---nightshit---08.00-17.00 (finish) next morning 08.00 start again For me: It is not humanistic!

[@juliotzocjr40]

This is harder than an engineer

[@danielmaluenda9731]

Oh yeah for sure. Some engineers go to medical school and begin that process from then on.

[@daddydangerous20]

But the salary is also much lower.. I'm a software engineer with a masters degree and 8 years experience and I make 130k a year... a physicians starting salary is way higher

[@bobboberson7684]

Med School Insiders in 2:55 - So does that mean that orthopedics is one of the hardest fields to specialize in? Because (although I’m not even in collage) I was looking to maybe specialize in orthopedics one day but I don’t exactly know if I have what it takes. I’m not saying I’m not willing to work for it, I was just wondering.

[@ericmanso7355]

24 hr shift Oh boy

[@MrMineHeads.]

Med School Insiders no laws against working for 24 hrs straight? Wouldn't you get tired? Tired doctors make mistakes. It seems like a stupid idea to keep doctors in training to work such long shifts. Lives are at stake, you should have active and fresh minds.

[@MrMineHeads.]

Gilberto Ortiz scrubs is a tv show so don't expect me to get a realistic depiction of the medical world from that

Love your videos, one of the reasons I feel like I got into medical school! Was hoping one of your videos can be centered around how to find good mentors, and maybe maintaining relationships (romantic, plantonic, and professional) through the process

[@kirankumaryakkala1300]

Hello doctor Can you please make a video on explaining the residency opportunities for foreigners in US and also the procedures to get into residency in US..

[@future_doctor_sam]

18 years old and starting pre-med this fall! I'm so excited and your videos only motivate me to be even more excited! I know I don't really need to have my mind set on any specialty yet, but do you have any recommendations as to when I should start narrowing that down? I've been interested in orthopedic surgery for quite some time, but regardless of that, I know for sure that I want to go into surgery.

[@fuckingallthesehoes3295]

I believe in third and fourth year of med school you should have a decision

[@danielmaluenda9731]

Not even in college yet, but from what I saw in the video, by Step 1 you have a good idea about lots of things in the human body, and should know your interests. By Step 2, you know more about what the jobs look like for the specialties due to rotations. So I’d say you can dream about your specialty now, begin to narrow it down before Step 1’s stress route. And really sharpen your decision throughout rotations. That’s what I’m thinking.

[@Discipleofthelordandjesus]

How’s it going now ?

[@future_doctor_sam]

@@Discipleofthelordandjesus I have since graduated with a degree in biochemistry (3.9 GPA, summa cum laude) and am prepping to take the MCAT in about a month. I have a draft of my personal statement, 15 experiences, and letters of recommendation secured for when I apply next June. Over 1600 medical experience hours. All that to say, I'd say it's doing pretty well so far!

[@hydoffdhagaweyne1037]

@@future_doctor_sam Thanks for the update, you will make a great doctor!....wish you the best.

[@LOSESTADOSUNIDOS1885]

medical school is the master and doctor degree, and the residency is the specialty degree

[@Luc3ntiX]

for me it was 6 years that allow you to work as what in the us would be a family physician, then if you specialize it's from 4 to 6 years depending on the program, after that you can further specialize and that's around 2 to 3 years according supra specialty. Salaries are decent once you finish your residency but nowhere as good as in the us, work hours are similar.

Are there medical apprenticeships where you can get on-the-job training,so its kind of like medical school and residency combined into one.

[@mixrable1212]

[@elscruffomcscruffy8371]

$190,000 is ridiculous to become a doctor. There needs to be significant support for our next gen doctors. Subsidise these fees immediately. Your grades and performance should be the judgement, not being punished by $$$ debt...

[@BiHu-ce9fx]

Actually less than what they exaggerate out there. Some say $300-450k

[@roninsanati1397]

I feel kind of dumb for having to ask this, but as a resident, do you have to sleep/live in the hospital? Movies and TV make it residency look almost like a colleges, and I feel like that may be somewhat inaccurate.

[@bencheveryday]

Could you do a video on Step 1 or 2 studying?

[@jillian3654]

I'll just ask, do you have to have (sorry for my english) a speciakty after residency before you can like, have your own clinic at a hospital?also, what happens after residency?can you stay at the hospital and work? Whats the best career path to take?

[@johnkorducki8979]

Currently a rising MS3 and very few people in my class are seeking a 5th year option, so I'm unfamiliar with what options are available. I was curious if you could make a new video or outline some 5th year options that are popular or some of the common ones that are pursued to your knowledge. Thanks!

[@johnkorducki8979]

Awesome! Thanks man. This channel is seriously great!

[@odeleya1768]

I have a question: if you're in residency then can you get out of work for religious reasons? What if your religion forbids you from working Saturdays?

[@damdabi8053]

I think it doesn't matter, well, in my country, you still have to go to work, they will say things like "but it's not like diseases rest on saturdays, you need to come"

[@SomeOne-fv2kb]

bravpvnch what if family members pass away?

[@americanbobtail1]

If you have all those restrictions and you are living in the United States, more likely than not you need to go to Touro for medical school and live in either New York, New Jersey, and possibly the Los Angeles area for residency.

Do you have any advises on how to find the best speciality for oneself? I'm only in college now, but I'm interested in so many different (sub-)specialities like Surgery (Ortho-, Neuro-, Trauma-), EM and IM. I'm worrying that I can't decide once the time comes in M4.

To get into med school what would you recommend being the best major because I was thinking about biology since they do not have pre med at the university I am attending.

[@ericpetres5056]

Biology is your best bet

[@yasmanybaez477]

This is a year old but maybe it will help. You can do any major, just take into consideration that if you were to do biology then you knock out most of the required prerequisites while if you did something like psychology you would have to take the extra prerequisite classes.

[@nigelfox7844]

hi' I thought your video was great. l have a question, to become a pediatrician how much would it be for the average cost for the residency program after med school to fully become a pediatrician.

[@rayanrahmani9838]

what do you mean cost? you usually get paid around 50-$70k

[@nikanaroditsky4282]

If you're asking whether you'd be paid in residency, then the answer is 'yes'. You're already working in a job, but the salary isn't as high as the salary of a specialist of course. Residents in most specialties (in the US) get paid between 50K to 70K annually (on average) and specialist doctors are getting paid 294K annually on average. It varies but I hope that you got my point and that it helped.
