I was surfing the net this morning, going through medical blogs and all, and I found these really interesting pictures.. Its just like almost all professions have stereotypes, these are the med student stereotypes. Almost all Med Bloggers have written about them! I must to delve UTUNU! They are funny But true. Here Goes.. The Painfully Enthustiac We know them..sometimes they piss us off.. Some are ITKs…some are not. In Medilag XV, we refer to them as the efficientos..Always up to date!! The Overly Academic In my Blunt opinion, They are all books no fun! In the words of my darling Fela, “No break..No jam” Just books! They tend not to have social lives! Maybe they did not teach them the “all work and no play makes Musbau a dull boy” in their nursery schools Can they be called geeks tho? The Gunner The gunner knows what he wants and he’s gonna get it! They can be mistaken for the Painfully Enthustiatic but are really interested in only one discipline. They remind me of the Surgery jocks in Scrubs. The Missing aka Perpetual stabbers…They are the Under G people! They dont show face in class But you will see them on the dayof the exam.. You will be like “so this one is in our class” They are the ones that pass codedly! Those matric numbers with High scores and no owners in sight, they are the ones.. Dont get me wrong, not all of ‘em pass. The Crier It happens…After first incourse, the results are not really what we expected.some people break down You know that babe..yeah..that babe that you really wanna know what her ******* feel like, This is your chance! Be strong for her and she will come crying “Oh! I banged my Anatomy incourse..but i read *tears* Lest I forget, If you are a block-headed boy, she wont run into your arms o! You have nothing to offer. Im not saying boys cannot cry…I wont even be surprised if i see a dude crying…Its Med School. The Prankster These ones are efiwes!! The come to joke with you when they are done reading. i.e they use you to catch fun..beware of them.. Not all are smart sha! The Perpetually Enraged As the name implies, perpetually enraged.. Ki lo fa? Emi o mo! Answers anybody?? The Questionable Admission Do I even need to explain, Questionable admission! You will wonder! “Come first! Did you write your Jamb Yourself” Or one of those dumb blonde moments… like I was arguing with @bYbaaaa That the Clavicle is Scapula… what was I even thinking? :s The Sensitive Soul One Word: Alaanu Samaria (M) Mother Theresa (F) The One-Track Mind Dont mistake him for the Gunner cuz the Gunner excels! The Twelve-Year-Old Those people that always giggle when the topic is about those *ahem* areas.. yes you gorrit!! This reminds me of my Secondary School Biology Teacher.. That woman is blessed! she could use her body as a specimen…I cant go into details but BMJS peeps know what I’m talking about. The sane one Drops out of med school What Is Your Type? Source
Not sure I understand the previous posts. Personally, I'm a "Painfully Enthusiastic". You will find me in the break room after early rounds bounding off the wall. And when not on the floor, or on weekends, yea, I'm a grinder. Books, papers, exam prep. But not a gunner. I am not throwing anyone under the bus. Though I do always sit in the front row. I'm the first person to help if someone needs help figuring out bond angles or lengths in trigonal bipyramidal central atoms. Do what you love, LOVE what you do.
