Startrek:EK garu, how soon do you think they would know what they want to become? As a parent how can we guide and help them in deciding what they want to become in their lives? For me most concerning is high school drop rate here in US.. aa thought vallaki raakunda undali ante what do we have to do ani anipistundi!
cant say, but most kids will start forming an opinion abt themselves by the age 12. they will start exploring career options in many indirect ways startng that time. what would help is you talking to them abt many professions without any hint of cynicism. schools here are fun, so unlikely they will ever think of dropping out.

Reentry:asalu mee pillalni DOCTORS avandi elaa motivate cheyyagaligaaru? did they choose out of their own interest??
my son mostly on his own. I think (he did not say this) he got inspired by ER show. Then his trips to India. When we went to Dondapadu (india), both my kids went and spent a lot of time at my servant maid's hut/gudise. then during his 2nd yr premed, he spent 2 months in kerala medical camp, among lepers and what not. crazy stuff we would be scared. india taught him howmuch help ppl need. send your kids to india and give them freedom to spend time with poor people. they turn out good. my daughter went into socialogy, works with poor kids in NYC.

Dermatology is competitive in US because it is a cool life afterwards. Not too many emergencies or calls etc. You can have a fairly relaxed life. I have one cousin who did that. It is like radiology in India which is the highest in demand because it is a totally chillout life while money still rocks. |

nothing like that.. celebrated surgeon Atul Gawande is Indian, isn't he? But surgery is competitive.

Filmbuff:EK garu - is there an option of directly starting MD in between premed or by avoiding premed. I am asking this out of curiousity as a a cousin of mine, if i remember, was trying for this. But she did not get a good enough score which my uncle (himself a doctor) was cribbing about. She then did the normal route of premed + MD etc.
What they have in some schools is a direct MD admission or early acceptance admission after K12. When they join PreMed they also accept MD admission with a caveat that they will not try any other school. What they get in return is, peace of mind. They still have to get a minimum score in MCAT , 28 I think, and atleast 3.75 GPA. They can also finish ther premed in 3 years by taking more credits per year and finish MD 3+4 years. As far as I know there is no MD program in USA with out doing the premed program.

Telugu_times:Srisri001: But, in US, doctors take some good breaks and enjoy their lives from their 40s on wards That is the key....from 40's onwards. Spouse and kids dont need to wait that long
But people from most other professions dance to music of financial and / business cycles through-out. Doctors forego some enjoyment until mid 30s. It would take 5 years for them to settle down. They happily enjoy lives from 40s' on wards until say 70s'. |

Entikaburlu:So to Summarize: 4yrs (Pre med) + 4yrs (MD) + 4 years (Residency) + 3 Years (Fellowship) + 2 years (Specialization).
The minimum time to get a job/practice in Medical profession after K12: 4yrs (Pre med) + 4yrs (MD) + 3/4 yrs (Residency) The minimum time to get a job/practice in Veterinary profession after K12: 4 yrs (pre med) + 4 yrs (DVM) In the case of VET, if one wants to practice he/she need not do Residency. In other words, VETs settle sooner than Medicos by at least 3/4 years. To get into VET school, one should either write GRE/VCAT/MCAT after pre med. The most accepted one is GRE. Some schools accept VCAT /MCAT. |

Ikkada evarikaina emanna personal info kavalante ikkada adagandi. My family is full of doctors in the US. My brother went to Osmania here + Residency (internal medicine) + fellowship (Cardio)+ super specialisation (interventional). He did his fellowship from Texas Heart Institute (Baylor) which is among the top 10 in the country, under Micheal DeBakey. He also taught at Cornell part time. But meeru settle avataniki 32 years or 33 avuddi. Adi munde reconcile avvvali. |

Yes. There is very little to choose among the top, which are: WU/STL, UPenn, Harvard, Johns Hopkins, Stanford, Cornell, Columbia, UCSD, UMich, Mayo, .. I may have missed one or two in that list. If you want to get into one of these, first do not get intimidated. Give it a good shot, you may be surprised. make sure you apply early. That is important.

I totally endorse OT's opinion. Even if you are stringently rich, I do not like the idea of paying for Children's tuition fee. It is OK to pay other costs, not the tuition fee. The above is purely my personal opinion. I know many of Indian parents do not like this. When you are in Rome, behave like a Roman. |

No need. In fact, it will cause condensation in garage. Just insulate the shared wall with house. other three sides leave plain. If you insulate all sides, get a heating vent and heat it. but unnecessary.

Bandababu:so in essence you are sure that you are getting into a med school whereas in the states you have to compete and you are not garunteed acceptance into a medical college as competion is very tough...
This is true. getting into a med School in USA, especially top 20 schools, is like getting into IIMs. Quite competitive. They have to be good in so many aspects. Only about 8% of PreMeds make it to the Med schools. What if they cant make to med School. They can try Dental next year. Or do an MS and PhD. They can also get into computers and IT. There are some insanely bright kids who do a dual major in Engg and PreMed. I do not think you need to do that. Simple go into MS of Bio Med Engg or Comp/IT in MS. Some go into Law or MBA. At that point, you have a good Science BS. Still quite a good standing.

One interesting point: In US getting an admission in VET school is more competitive than getting admission into a medical school. One of the reasons is there are few vet schools in US than medical schools. |

Medicine cheyyali aney passion lekunka medicine cheyya vaddu. Do not calculate costs and financial benefits of medicine to pursue it. If some one is so passionate to do medicine he/she should take it up. Otherwise, DO NOT GO NEAR TO IT. Same is the case with RESEARCH i.e., doing a Ph.D. |

Thanks SriSri, as a faculty member you can perhaps give some more inputs. One note about PreMed course. After the same course, they can also take DCAT for Dental, and VCAT (not sure abt the name) for Veterinary. now, here is the kicker. It is so hard to get into a Veterinary School, for most of them, Med School is a fall back!! Many Indian Girls always want to become a Vet! So give them this news so that they can work extra hard!

OK, I can answer this. At the outset, let me assure you, money is not an issue. Medical education is fully funded by loans, whatever it may cost, so rest easy. I will try to give you the entire process. Preparation starts around 8th grade. If you are over enthusistic type, even earlier. First, inculcate an extreme work ethic in the kid. Time Management is also important. Focus on Math, Phys, Chem. Get a great SAT Score. Get Chemistry as much as possible. Chemistry is the toughest science course in USA. Indian kids have a natural flair for Math, but Chemistry is an acquired skill, so watch out. After 12th grade, they do a 4-year BS course, what is colloquially called Pre-Med. This is the same foundation course for MD, Dental and Veterinary. When you join the college, make sure you tell the advisor that you are a premed student. They need a fixed number of credits to take. They will advise you. Phys, Chem, Micro Bio, Mol Bio, Math etc needed. Chem, Micro Bio, Mol Bio are the toughest. You are expected to have an A in these. General GPA above 3.8 is recommended. Straight 4.0 are very common among PreMeds. The college to choose for PreMed can be a state school. Do not break the bank yet for Premed itself. It is not uncommon for desi over-enthu type parents to send their ids to ivy schools for Premed and spend 150K. Save that money. Premed is like Inter before MBBS. Nobody cares once you become MD. In the summer between 3rd and 4th years of Premed, they write a test called MCAT. It is a 6-hour long test. Maximum possible score is 45. Anything above 35 is good. 37-38 is the median for all schools except the top 5-10. 39 and above will give you a good shot into UPenn, WuSTL, Hopkins, Harvard, Stanford, SanDiego, Cornell, Columbia etc. Next Tier schools are U of R, UPitt, Boston, Duke, etc etc.. The admission is based on five things: MCAT, GPA, Essay, Interview, and Recos. MCAT, Essay and GPA will fetch you an interview. Interview and Recos will get the admission. Mana YSRCP brothers oogutaru, recos anagane, Lokesh sangathi cheppi. Medicine admissions lo Recos power emito telustundi. Interview is the clincher. Usually three ppl will interview - Faculty, Admissions Committee and a Senior Student. Based on the total score they will give the admission. Admissions will be in rounds. First round will be given in Oct. You got to be a shining scholar to land in Oct. They go all the way into April with wait list. The school starts in July. The degree you get is MD. It takes 4 years to graduate. It is not uncommon for many kids to take a year out and do research as fellowship or for PhD/MBA. Then it will be 5 years. Cost of study is between 40K to 70K per year. This consists Tution, Boarding and Lodging. If you goto a hometown Med School, you save about 15K p.a. Board and Lodging. Tuition will be the rest. Depending on your overall standing, and needs, students get scholarships. It is not uncommon to to get 100% Tuition waiver. MCAT 40+, GPA4.0 and excellent recos and some research will get you full tuition waiver. Some kids do MD PhD. This is a research track. Md/PhD kids get full tuition waiver, and about 1800 p.m. stipend. But they will have to work in the dept as a faculty member after graduating. Brightest candidates go into this. Equally bright kids also do fellowships. The cost will be met through own funds, scholarship, interest free loans, subsidized federal loans, and finally commercial loans (7%). The school bursar will work with each student to secure the loans. Most kids graduate with loans between 100K-160K. They get 20 years to clear it. Just like a mortgage loan. What happens after MD? They choose a speciality and do a Residency in a hospital. This is again Apply-Interview-Select process. In the 4 years, they take tests called Step-1 and Step-2. Those scores, grades and recommendations will decide what specialization you will get. Minimum residency is 3 years. Most specialities require 4 years. After that they do a 3 years fellowship. Then they follow it with another 2 years of specialization. The residency pays about 40K p.a. Every year they add 2K more. They work about 14 to 16 hours a day for that amount. While doing all that, they prepare for Boards exams and pass them. Most bright Doctors have dual Boards. So to Summarize: 4yrs (Pre med) + 4yrs (MD) + 4 years (Residency) + 3 Years (Fellowship) + 2 years (Specialization). Then, finally, he can ask you to say, "aaahh." God bless them.

This is from link given by Ishan, india pampidham anu kune vallu please chadavandi ( WARNING}}) I got a pm from a parent asking what were the factors involved in coming to India.... or if it was a good Idea... wrote them a long reply which i thought could be usefull to others as well... here is is... if you have something to add... please do... hope this gets the ball rolling... ok well deciding to come to India is a very big decision and it has a lot of factors involved... I can not say if its a good idea or not for your son particulary as I do not know him and have not spoken to him personally but I will outline a few points of interest that are crucial to making the decision to come to india the right decision. 1) you should first and foremost ask your son what HE wants to do. If he says he wants to stay in america and finish his schooling you should at not cost force him to come to India... this will save you a lot of money as well as time... as if he doesn't adjust well here you will lose your whole donation amount as well as the time and effort taken to set up in india. However should he be willing to listen to the benefits of coming to India you can tell him the following: - you will be garunteed a seat in a medical college and you will be able to skip undergraduate studies in america.... so in essence you are sure that you are getting into a med school whereas in the states you have to compete and you are not garunteed acceptance into a medical college as competion is very tough... 2) regarding time and money People always say you save time and money... this is not always true... The course in itself is 5.5 years... afterwhich you have to finish your USMLE's with good scores so studying for these exams takes a while and completing them usually takes a year... after which u apply to residency... so in total you will spend about 6.5 years if you finish everything without flunking, ie in the first attempt. The thing is that most NRI's, me included, rarely pass the first year exam on their first attempt... the teaching style as well as the examination style are very different... not to mention the culture shock that the student has to get used to... in reality NRI's usually take about 7 to 7.5 years to finish up the course and complete the USMLE's. so time is not really a factor as there are 7 year programs in the US too... but thesea re verrry very competitive... but they are there... Next comes money. True the US system of education is very expensive... you will be paying around 300 grand for undergraduate studies alone if your son chooses to go to a UC school... if he chooses to go to a private school then even more... In india the donation amount is close to 90-100 lakhs so that comes out to roughly 250k dollars... and that is a one time lump sum fee... non refundable... true you will save money in the end... but what happens if your son decides he can't do it.... or he doesnt adjust here in india... or he cant adapt to the teaching style? then your 250 k is gone... I am not saying this discourage you or your son... I am giving you a heads up... that you should be careful about this... this is the reason you should ask your son first if he REALLY REALLY REALLY wants to be a doctor? Next if HE wants to come to India to study? if either of these answers especially the first one is a no or an im not sure... then i suggest you keep your son at home... but if he is sure he wants to be a doctor.. and if he is willing to come to india... i think maybe you can send him here to india to stay for a while... let him see how life is here on a daily basis.. alone...staying with relatives or so is ok i suppose but he should be in the mindset of living in india... because when we come on vacation we dont notice a lot of things or we tend to overlook it as we are in the mindset that we will be going home in few days... so what im saying is that he should come and stay here for a while in the mindset of staying here not a vacation... and after that if he is ok with coming to india and studying then it is safe bet... but he should be sure he wants to be a doctor... at the end of the day he shouldnt change his mind in the middle... 3) teaching style, adjustments, studying Generally NRI's coming to india have to self study mostly... we dont really understand the teaching style in india and most teachers here are great at their field and they will help you... but they have no teaching background and do not know how to teach... they are very knowledgable and they will help you if you ask them to... but you will have to study yourself... and at such a higher level study i think it is the same in the US too... self study. never the less i must mention it to you... next is the adjustment... you have to be able to adjust to indian lifestyle... if your son knows the local language it is a big big plus... as he needs this to communicate with patients and it will help him in daily activities... but he should be fine with eating indian food everyday and he should be open to the adjustment... I can't tell you what the adjustment is exactly because it is different for everyone but it is a big change... and i have seen people unable to adjust... and they go back after a year... to avoid this letting ur son stay here for some time before taking admissions is advisable as stated above... On another note... In my personal experience... I was sure i wanted to be a doctor... I was not that great of a student... I mean i got all A's but I did the bare minimum... I was not one of those students that will study and work hard for hours which is what it takes in america to get into a medical college... So India was good for me because I was sure... And I didnt want to go through the Undergraduate program in america and at the end of the day not get into medical college... in india I was garunteed to be a doctor at the end... So if your son sounds more like this picture then you might consider following the above steps to see if he will be ok with coming to india.... But if he your son is a studious person and you think that he can and will get into a medical college in the US... and if he is very american and he doesnt want to come to india... then You should keep him at home... and if he does not make it to a college at the end then you can send him to india as a last resort... because if he stays in the US he has a lot of benefits.... number one he is a US graduate so getting residency is a lot easier... and he can go for specialties like surgery which are virtually offlimits for foreign grads.. i say virtually because it is verrrrry verrrrry difficult to get these residencies normally and as Foreign grads its even harder... but it is not immposible... you have to be a very high scorer but its not immposible... also he has american clinical experience so he wont have to get that after his coursework like foreign grads... next benefit is that you can pay the amounts in installments not up front so its easier and safer should your son change his mind...but it will cost more in the US that is there... |

Until few years ago it was very easy to get pharmacy license here in the US...the exam was pretty easy...but now they have really tightened the exam...so its not that easy now...thats why many indian pharmacy graduates are going to canada which still has that easier system in place. Yes its a lucrative job too. Most of health professions need both state and national licenses in this country. |

You forgot 3 years of residency which is must. To bandababu, Public universites cheap gaa vuntaayi...but on average anywhere between 150k to 450k depending on college and place. There is a website called www.studentdoctor.net ...they have all the details there...you can ask the same question there. MD is high investment and high income type thing...once you repay student loan, you will be pretty rich...Inka better is Dental...you can finish it in 4 years, and 3 yrs of residency is not required. Dentists earn tonns and tons of money here. Only specialized medicine people like surgeons compete with dentists, in terms of remuneration. |

after high school, it is 8 yrs. 4+4 first 4 years, regular college, with emphasis on pre med courses. then last 4 yrs, actual medicine. There are 7 year integrated colleges too, but very very less. Also, just because a student completes a 4 year pre med in a particula univ, does NOT guarantee the next 4 yrs in the same college. That is why, most kids attend the first 4 yrs in a cheaper college, get good grades and attend a standard college for the final 4 yrs of medicine. Bottom line...The high school grades (9th to 12th) are very important for medical college admission |

Bandababu:Pre-Med courses enni years? MCAT rasina tarvatha enni years?
pre-med courses are courses during your 4 year Bachelors degree...mostly they are biology, biochemistry or physiology courses which help in coping up during Med school...MD ikkada 4 years then u go on to do residency for 3 years i guess Thelegend:chala mandi student loans teeskune chadvukuntaru ikkada even though they can afford college. Aa pane cheyyandi. You dont pay until the student graduates and interest rates are very less

from about.com Question: How Much Does Medical School Cost? Medical school can be expensive and therefore, it would be beneficial to consider the cost of med school before applying. Answer: According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, the median tuition in 2010-2011 was $28,685 at a public institution and $46,899 at a private institution. Note that tuition does not include books, lab fees, etc. In 2010-2011 the median total cost of attendance was $49,298 and $66,984 for public and private universities, respectively. In 2010, the median debt at graduation was $150,000 at public institutions, $180,000 at private, and $160,000 combined. |
