Alternative Career Zone for Medical (MBBS) Students


I have personally seen Many Doctors, who have left this field after MBBS, some did this in Frustration and some were in hurry for a Good Job and Good Money. In Pakistan, many MBBS doctors take the exam of CSS (Competitive Exam - Civil Superior Services) after completing MBBS, and join Civil Services. Its a Federal Government Job of BPS Grade 17, Early promotion chances are good in this job and pay scale usually starts form 25 to 30,000. After MBBS u can do MBA also to join Pharmaceutical Companies, if you are smart enough you can join these Drug Companies without doing MBA. The Pay Scale in these companies start from 20 to 30,000 and goes up with the experience. There are many MBBS doctors who dont want to interact with the patients, but they want to work in hospitals, they can do MBA in Hospital Administration, and can join Hospitals with Great Pay. Another option is Certification/Diploma in Clinical Research after MBBS, and join Clinical Research Institutes. You can join Army as a Captain after clearing their Exams. Other than CSS, there are other competitive exams also like PCS, Commission Exam for Lecturer Ship. Biotechnology and Bio-Informatics are two other options after MBBS. There must be lot other options also, but i am not familiar with them yet ......

Summarizing:


  • CSS

  • MBA (Pharmaceuticals)

  • MBA (Hospital Administration)

  • CLINICAL RESEARCH

  • ARMY

  • PCS

  • LECTURER SHIP

  • BIO-TECHNOLOGY

  • BIO-INFORMATICS

You are absolutely say right. I also see many doctors who left their study after MBBS. I think the main reason is so many stress during the medical education.

I agree, MBBS is a lengthy study, it takes lot of stressful years.
