Synopsis

This book is all about steps should be taken to become a good and successful medical student. Many people think that it is easy to take medicine as your course if you are genius and perform well in your SPM, got straight A's or what so ever. Yah..it is true that only ppl who get gps 4.00 can take medicine, but it is not easy for you to finished your study if you did not have interest and passion. To take medicine, you have to enjoy and LOVE it.

Do you know that pressure of expectations of excellence commanded by the nature of the dicipline being demanded at every turn. This, compounded by the stress of having to master a profound body of knowledge could make the journey seem daunting. The process of moving from being a medical student to physician is complex. Due to the intensity and workload demanded by the dicipline, there is little time to reflect on other aspects of one's life.

So, there are a few steps should be taken to become a good and successful medical student :

- think back. did you have made the correct decision, can you be a doctor one day? or the possible career options after you graduate.

- time management. can you study and lead a reasonable life at the same time? manage your time and plan an effective study schedule. also, involve yourself in co-curricular activities. (Do not become book worm all the times, chill babe!!!)

- love all the lectures. pay full attention during the class to get maximum benefit from the lectures.

- search for effective study habits. like after "subuh". Have your own small study group (two heads better than one)

- Try to be a good friend. Try to deal with friends who are always depending on you for lecture notes. (even sharing is caring but sometimes we should "give and take"). do not envy of other people's achievement. take it as challenge!!

-well prepared for the exam. practise the essay questions.

- believe in Allah. He will always with you all the times.
