If you're in medical school or you want to go to medical school, learn what kind of doctor you should be
. Take the Medical Specialty Aptitude Test.
It turns out I should have been an occupational medicine doc. Here's my ranking of specialties I should have been.

- aerospace
- nuclear

- pathology
- radiology
- thoracic surgery
- neurology
- ophthalmology
- radiation oncology
- dermatology
- infectious disease
- neurosurgery
- psychiatry
- otolaryngology
- allergy and immunology
- med oncology
- plastic surgery
- physical med and rehabilitation
- urology
- hematology
- endocrinology
- emergency

I guess answering that I have no desire to follow patients long term and that I like a fixed schedule and that I like math really skews the data. Or maybe I done gone and messed up my life.



floor nurse here..took it for fun and number one was er doc..since i have the attention span of a gnat and get bored easily what does that say????
ReplyDeleteSo...just no real desire to connect? With "strangers", that is.
ReplyDeleteHeh. My tops would be radiology and pathology. ER was dead last.
ReplyDelete(I'm an OR nurse, can you tell?)
Test told me to do either ID or hematology. I guess I would have still done the right residency if I'd listened.
ReplyDeleteCan't imagine being anything but a hospitalist after 10 years...
damn.I always had a nagging feeling that I should have done GI (#3).Now I know why...
ReplyDeleteGI or derm #1? I must be very lazy,very boring, or both..
ReplyDeleteTold me to be an Orthopod. I think that explains a lot.
