Yes, I definitely agree that Medical Related careers are demand today. In fact, the need of Medical Related graduates now still growing. So, there is no doubt that their are lot of medical students now.
Very realistic and I really agreed of what was posted. Even though I am not a medical student but In my country the issue of Brain Drain is really hurting. Nurses in here are working abroad as domestic helpers since they don’t have a job to land locally. Thanks for the post.
The statistics above only shows that medical related courses and careers are still promising and on demand. Health care is the number 1 priority of the Government thus jobs are more on this field.
This a very good news for the medical related courses since they no longer fear of being unemployed.
