I understand when I read that someone said that is hard for us to study medicine here bit I cant see myself doing another job, this is a hard choice because of the low income but I feel good taking care and saving people’s lives.

University for some is more than just starting a new academic level, it can also be moving to a new city, having independence, meeting people from many parts of the country who, like you, go with a goal in mind, willing to face challenges.

Each step I took required adapting different evaluation methods, more demands, more content, it could become overwhelming at times but with the passage of time you adapt.

Some subjects are very good compared to others, although that depends on each person’s tastes. Several subjects are made special by the teachers they teach. Others can be a nightmare for the same reason. I wish they were all special the way out. much better

The city where I ended up studying, the hot weather is exhausting, you had to know how to endure it because that plus the exhaustion of the day you end up knocked out

At first moment, the goal seems far away but one way or another time will pass and you realize that you are moving forward, that is part of the motivation that drives you. At some point I consider stopping studying, I think like many, thinking that the The road was eternal and we had other plans in mind, but time passed and the objectives were achieved.

Studying medicine in Venezuela is extremely difficult due to the lack of resources and materials, the precariousness of the facilities and the shortage of qualified teaching staff. Students must face long study days, a demanding curriculum and the pressure of knowing that the lives of their future patients depend on their academic training. In addition, the socioeconomic situation of the country negatively affects medical students, as inflation and shortages of medical supplies make learning and clinical practice difficult. Despite all these difficulties, medical students in Venezuela show great determination and effort to complete their training and become doctors committed to the welfare of the population.

The UDO is one of the best universities of medicine at national level in Venezuela, leaving excellent graduates in medicine, as experts and with a good preparation, but despite the level with which they leave graduates, the university still has a serious problem due to the situation of the country, as it is complicated by the fact of not having sufficient resources when studying medicine, and having to improvise some tools, or procedures at the risk of malpractice, only by the economic complexity that exists in Venezuela. It is really a challenge to be a university student in Venezuela and more if you choose a career like medicine, where it is necessary to have the correct clothing when practicing this career.

The truth is that it is currently in deplorable conditions, especially its infrastructure and the authorities that manage it have zero interest in the well-being of the students/teachers, which makes this situation more deplorable. However, it is impressive how it continues to stand tall, training multiple professionals, including myself, giving us tools to develop in our working lives. I hope that one day things will get better and I will go back to what I was before.
