:smack:

Re: Is it true .....?

I dont think so.

Re: Is it true .....?

No

Re: Is it true .....?

LOL! My husband went to med school in Pakistan and he actually told me that about 90% of the girls that go to med school there are only there to get a good rishta. And most of them dont practice after they graduate, because they have gotten married usually before they even graduate, or right after graduation.

LOSTSOUL79, aapkii soul year 1979 se gum hai? pahle use talaash kijiye phir maiN is sawaal kaa jawaab duuNgaa...:D

Re: Is it true …?

I had the same reaction.

Re: Is it true .....?

Right. And many never even intend to graduate. They simply take up spots in medical schools and leave their training wasted. What a great use of resources!!

Re: Is it true .....?

LOL.......no.

Re: Is it true .....?

I heard that if the the guy is compounder, his chances of getting married are pretty slim.

Re: Is it true .....?

You meant compoder? :D

Re: Is it true .....?

Right. All those female doctors practicing in pakistan are just compassionate overseas girls who went over to help the poor. What a sacrificing lot.

Re: Is it true .....?

is the word compoder? I did not even know that :D

Re: Is it true .....?

yes its true...most of the desi mothers want a "daactar bahu" for their son :)...but not exactly a practicing daactar...she just wants a housewife who is a doctor so she can show off her bahu to her family :P

Re: Is it true …?

That’s certainly not what I said. :rolleyes:

Re: Is it true …?

For all of those who said

lol… no or :smack: etc

well, my question was kind of specific to Pakistan.

Let me put the same question in another way, if you were looking for a rishta for your son/brother, isn’t it that if you have a choice, you’ll bring a bride who is a doctor compared to, say, a software engineer?

Re: Is it true .....?

I could have been quoting future too, you know 2079, I'd be a lost soul then ... who said its 1979?

Re: Is it true …?

Lol

Re: Is it true .....?

right

Re: Is it true .....?

Not going to lie but that's one of the reasons my parents want me to get into medicine. Although I am genuinely interested in the medical profession. However, I am generally interested in the field of medicine.
