So, after the last few slides you must be wondering, if you should at all go for higher dental education or not. The aim of this post is not make you feel that going for higher dental education is futile.
Rather the aim of this post is to make you realise that you should not go for higher dental education for the wrong reasons.
Decide to do your PG/MDS when
- You genuinely develop an interest for a particular subject.
- When you feel you lack in a particular aspect of dentistry that you would like to nurture.
- When you yourself feel that doing a PG at this time would contribute to your skills majorly.
- Only if you really enjoy dentistry.
We all are aware of how competitive this world is.
Most of us might think that if we don hurry up we might fall behind our counterparts.
But, I feel we need to give ourselves some time to make a clear decision to know what we want from life.
Let’s Do It Our Way
Why is it that all of us are rushing into something just because everybody is doing it or somebody else said so?
- I believe it would be ideal to give yourself sometime (if you haven’t given) to assess where you lack and what you need to work on.
- Give yourself that time for self-assessment and then decide what to do ahead so that at least this time you would be really sure of the decision you would take.
- If you ever felt you do not enjoy this field do not be afraid to do what you love. Do not be afraid to chase your dreams and listen only to your heart.
Remember, success comes only to those who really love what they do.
Go ahead guys, and all the very best for your future and always remember,
