Apparently being a medical student nowadays is not easy. We're not only stressed out due to the high expectation placed by our respective lecturer to perform, but we're also required to complete some courses which can be considered irrelevant to the original subject. Take me for example, I have been a medical student for almost five years, and now I'm struggling to finish my medical school by completing a programming course for my research project.
It's a project which requires us to develop a prototype mobile application which can act as a reminder for a patient to take their medicine in a specified time. It sounds like a nice idea at first, I thought the development process would be done by students from another faculty which specialised in computer sciences, but it turns out we have to do it ourselves. During the first meeting, I understand the importance of having some extra skills which can be good for my career later on, but now, it started to look like a bad idea.
We have 2 classes every week, on Thursday's afternoon and Sunday's morning. I generally grab 20% of the concepts being taught during the class and the rest, well, my attention started to wear down. Medicine and computer science, both of them are very different. In medical school, when a lecturer asks a question, the answer would require you to think outside the box. During the java class, however, the question was direct and sometimes, I've become sceptical whether it is really the answer. Turns out, yes it is.
So tiring, I think I will exercise a bit, have some dinner and then sleep. All of the thought processes involved in the programming class just now is so overwhelming and I 'm not sure I could deliver. The presentation is in October. I sincerely hope we can make it.
p/s: The PhD student who taught us Java programming is so kind and nice.
