8 Things All Medical Students Can Relate To

Medical students are the Gods of our money-obsessed-status-conscious society for two reasons. A: People just assume that money will automatically flow into the house of everyone who has opted to study medicine. And B: they’re just astonished by the fact that you devoted so many years to education.

Here are some of the things all medical students will be able to relate to:

1. Realizing Medical School is nothing like Grey’s Anatomy

There’s no McDreamy or McSteamy. Or a Meredith, for all you boys out there. It’s just a lot of studying and sleepless nights.

After a while you just start using them out of habit around people, and they think you’re throwing around fancy words to appear cool.

4. You’ve diagnosed yourself with about 63,748 diseases by now

You’ve learnt about so many diseases and symptoms even a sneeze will convince you you have cancer.
