A doctor wasting the govt seat ..

[X2]

@Chicken_Biryani

I dont know, why, but X2 , it doesnt make sense to me .. I mean yes its the taxpayers money, but then private education isnt the best in the country either .. Plus, its not like its open to every one, only the best of the best fight every seat out , so really they win it based on their own skill set.

Here in England, we have free education for kids , would it feel good if the government said everyone who gets this education will stay in England and serve it for x number of years ..

I can understand when its a qualification like ACA , where companies that pay for the exam , require employees to stay onboard and work for a set amount of time before they can move on .. but in MBBS studies in Pakistan, student doctors work literally for free with duties as long as 72 hours in one go and remaining on call for the rest of their time , this goes on for at least 2 years while they do their house job .. isnt this serving the country bit enough already !

I am basing my opinion solely based on following factors

1- it’s a country with fewer resources and not a long line of foreign docs trying to get in to meet capacity needs

2- some waste or rather unrealized return on investment as a society is to be expected. Higher the need/critical nature of role, cost of training, and capacity to train …higher corrective measures to discourage waste

In your view when is it too much? If 25% of a class stops practicing very soon after graduation and another 25% leaves the country? What is the tipping point?

What gets measured and has right incentives in place .. is what gets driven to desired outcomes.
