Decision to go to medical school
Description
Book Introduction
★Medical students read first and recommend this must-read for college entrance exams for teenagers★
★Seoul National University Hospital's Cho Young-min strongly recommends Woo Chang-yoon from "Doctor Friends"★
A must-read for students and their parents dreaming of becoming doctors.
“The most definitive answer to why you should go to medical school.”
For many parents and students, the path to medical school and becoming a doctor is an object of envy.
In famous private academy districts such as Daechi-dong, there are even "elementary school medical school classes," so parents line up to get their children into medical school, and it is a natural sight for top students to take entrance exams with the goal of getting into medical school.
《Decision to Go to Medical School》 is a book written by university hospital professor Jeong Jae-hoon, current doctor Choi A-ran, and startup CEO Hwang Bo-yul, who are medical school seniors and parents who graduated from 'SKY Medical Schools' and joined forces to tell the story of 'real medical school, real doctors' in a reality where everyone rushes to medical school just to see its bright future.
Because it was written with the idea of giving advice to one's own children, it condensed the panorama of the beginning and end of a doctor's life into one volume, including the entrance exam period that students are most curious about, the intense and exciting six years of medical school life, the vivid 24-hour hospital life of a resident, the secret to passing the national exam, and a doctor's career path outside the hospital.
The beauty of this book is that it offers advice tailored to each individual's life stage, from teenagers hoping to enter medical school to current medical students and doctors working in hospitals.
Unlike books that blindly push students to enter medical school by focusing only on the entrance exam, this book is unique in that it accurately portrays the pros and cons of medical school and becoming a doctor.
I believe that only by presenting reality from a balanced perspective can students avoid falling off the pedestal of medical school and achieve their goal of becoming doctors.
For teenagers dreaming of medical school, this book will provide an opportunity to experience and motivate themselves to finally achieve their dreams. For parents, it will provide encouragement more effective than a hundred words about their future path.
Medical students who have read this book in advance also strongly recommended it, saying that if they had read it before entering medical school, they would have been able to reduce trial and error.

Into the book
Technology is advancing rapidly around the world, and the global medical and bio-healthcare industries are poised for significant growth.
Advances in artificial intelligence will impact all occupations.
In these times, the medical profession will face more challenges in the future, and doctors' careers will diversify beyond hospitals.
Now that you've decided to go to medical school, I hope you'll make the decision to expand your dreams infinitely through the profession of medicine.
--- From the main text, “Prologue”
We work and live our whole lives.
If you want to enjoy what you do in life, you must first ask yourself if it is your true calling.
The clearer the answer to the question, the more meaningful and solid the path will be.
If the career you choose turns out to be something you love, it will give you the strength to live your life.
I sincerely hope that all of you who are planning to enter medical school will find a career that you can love and dedicate yourself to for the rest of your life.
--- From the text, “The clearer the dream, the more likely it is to become reality.”
If you follow the advice of your parents or others instead of making such an important decision on your own, you may realize that it is not right for you right after entering medical school or becoming a doctor, and you may end up resenting them, or you may have to go through many trials and errors to switch to a career other than medicine.
But people who decide on their own dreams have fewer regrets.
Even if medical school doesn't suit your aptitude, you can become the master of your own life and find another path.
--- From the text, “Your dream can become as long as the time you spend wandering.”
A single piece of medical knowledge is the result of countless medical researchers treating and analyzing patients over a long period of time.
If you've decided to become a medical student, it's best to face this type of study head-on, as memorizing established medical knowledge is unavoidable, whether to pursue advanced medical research or to provide safe treatment to patients.
--- From the text “What does it mean to study medicine in medical school?”
Medicine advances and is perfected through the process of learning from those who are alive through dedication that transcends death and then returning that learning to patients and society.
Mortui Vivos Docent, 'The dead teach the living.' This phrase encapsulates the essence of anatomy practice.
Through my encounter with him, I was able to strengthen my resolve as a doctor, and it continues to be an important foundation for my practice and life.
--- From the text “What Death Teaches Medical Students”
Nevertheless, even if I were to go back to being a medical student, I would knock on the baseball club's door without hesitation.
It may have been the genealogy that taught me how to pass the exam, but it was the club that gave me the people who would walk with me through my long life as a doctor.
I hope that when you become a doctor, you will meet true friends who can help you overcome the arduous internship process and share life's joys and sorrows.
And it would be even better if that meeting took place through a club activity that you both truly enjoy and enjoy.
--- From the text “Friendship Makes You Grow Greater”
In other words, a medical student's vacation is not a time to fill a line on their resume.
It's time to cultivate the inner strength that will sustain you throughout your career as a physician for decades to come.
That strength comes from physical strength restored through sufficient rest and a broad perspective that allows us to understand the lives of others.
Please don't be impatient.
Taking good care of your body and mind during this short break is the wisest way to prepare for the next semester and your long life as a doctor.
--- From the text, “A medical student’s vacation is a time to cultivate his inner self.”
Science is an attractive discipline because it creates progress for humanity.
Being a doctor and treating patients is also a very important job.
Both are very precious dreams, but they have very different personalities.
So, I want you to consider whether you dream of dynamic achievements that come with daily failures, or whether you want to treat patients reliably.
--- From the text “What should a doctor do to become a scientist?”
So the more important question for us is this:
Rather than asking, "How long will I have to work as a doctor?", we should ask, "What kind of life do I want to live?" Since we don't know when we'll stop living, shouldn't we live our lives asking and answering how we will fill our lives while we're alive?
--- From the text, “I want to be a wise and affectionate doctor grandmother”
You should be a doctor who 'deals' with AI, not a doctor who 'competes' with AI.
To achieve this, how will you hone your meticulous manual skills? How will you cultivate the leadership skills to lead a diverse team of specialists? And above all, what efforts will you make to become a doctor who first touches the hearts of patients? I firmly believe that your answers to these questions hold the hope for our healthcare system, transforming the crises of the AI era into opportunities.

From the six years of medical school admission and undergraduate studies, to various career paths after graduation and the vision of the AI era,
The Best Dream Motivation SKY Medical School Parents Give Their Teenage Children
This book, consisting of four steps, contains almost all stories related to medical school and doctors, from the entrance to medical school, the six years of undergraduate study, the 24 hours of a doctor's life including residency, the various career paths of doctors, and coexistence with AI.
"STEP 1" contains essential information that students and their parents should consider together regarding medical school and the career path of becoming a doctor, essential medical school knowledge, and four criteria for choosing the medical school that will fulfill a student's dreams. It contains the necessary materials to prepare for medical school.
"STEP 2" is designed to allow students who have made a firm decision to go to medical school in the previous stage to experience the curriculum, club life, exam study strategies, and vacation life necessary to successfully complete the six years of medical school, as if they were medical students.
"STEP 3" is filled with content that will help you build your resolve and attitude before becoming a doctor, including how to pass the national medical licensing exam, how to choose a major, and the daily routine of a resident.
The final 『STEP 4』 contains various career paths after obtaining a medical license, as well as a future outlook on the coexistence of artificial intelligence and the medical field.
This is especially useful because by the time today's teenagers become doctors, technological advancements will have brought about changes that are different from what they are now.
The reason the authors have laid out the medical school and life of a doctor step by step in this way is because they hope that students who enter medical school will grow into 'happy doctors.'
It's not just about good grades, high income, or high social status. Understanding your own personality, values, and dreams is crucial for a happy six years of medical school and a lifetime as a doctor. This book, like the loving and wise advice of parents from SKY medical schools to their children, will serve as the ultimate motivation for pursuing your dreams.
Do medical students also attend academies? The hospital's Miracle Morning is created by residents?
A vivid six-year medical school experience and a 24-hour resident's story that will make any prospective student's heart race.
Most college applicants only have medical school and becoming doctors as their goals, and they do not think deeply about the real life of a medical student after entering school and the daily life of a resident.
However, medical school is a 6-year program, with 2 years of preparatory course and 4 years of undergraduate course, so the period of attendance is longer than other colleges and the career paths are also limited. Therefore, if you enter medical school without knowing the reality of medical students and residents, there is a risk of wandering for a long time because it does not fit your aptitude.
In this book, the authors share their honest experiences as medical students and what they felt while teaching students as professors at a university hospital, helping students think more seriously and clearly about their dreams.
The unique curriculum of medical school that cultivates the attitude of a doctor, the reason why one must join a club despite living with a heavy workload and competition, the clever way to overcome a slump, and even the technique of using vacation as a time for growth. These descriptions of campus life filled with intensity and excitement are stories that will thrill those who dream of medical school more than anything else.
Sometimes, the breathless 24-hour workday of a resident, who is always running around the field, can be daunting. However, the sight of residents working together with their patients and colleagues to become good doctors will strengthen their sense of accomplishment and challenge.
Job security, the threat of artificial intelligence, and even seniors who chose careers outside of hospitals.
About the future prospects of a doctor who will expand the terrain of dreams
With artificial intelligence now being used in the medical field, the authors say it's difficult to be certain that young people will maintain the same positions they have now when they graduate from medical school and become doctors.
In this book, the authors introduce various career paths for doctors, helping students and their parents envision a long-term future and decide on their dream of becoming doctors. They also explore ways to effectively coexist with artificial intelligence.
First, let's talk about the three ways you can get inside the hospital.
If you know the characteristics of university hospital professors, private practitioners, and public servants, as well as your own personality (e.g., whether you are a stable person or an adventure-seeker), you will be able to adapt well and work in a hospital.
We also talk about starting a startup, which is one of the paths you can take outside of the hospital.
In particular, CEO Hwangbo Yul, a graduate of medical school and a leading figure in the medical AI business at the National Cancer Center, shares his vivid experience in starting a medical startup.
The stories of authors who have taken various paths will broaden your perspective.
Some worry that AI will replace doctors because it is outperforming them, but the authors predict that if we utilize AI as a tool and develop the unique strengths of human doctors, we will be able to survive in the future.
"The Decision to Go to Medical School" is a detailed career guide that covers the light and dark sides of medical school, as well as the realities of the future.
Whether you need motivation for medical school, lack confidence in your dreams, or are seriously contemplating what kind of doctor you should become, this book will be your ultimate admissions expert and advisor.
