Like you didn't understand the chart above. 4 years ago our country was not in this situation. They would have already started school. Seem u have a gripe because I thought doctors would get GATE back then and not have to depend on "mommy and daddy"
Like you cant make the grade.

I have no gripe with anyone, and as for making the grade if I WANTED to be a doctor I am quite capable and possess the intelligence to be. Can't help but call it as I see it, and my statement in no way encompasses all, but just like any other degree if you realise something isn't working then you need to adapt. I never understand why people laud med sci over any other degree, yes it is an admirable profession to be a doctor but someone who earns an MBA is no less successful than if they had put in the effort to be a doctor. I stated in another thread I have a number of friends also in the medical field who could not get jobs locally, two of them opted to go over to Grenada to work at St. George's. I'm sure they would have loved to stay home with their families where they are comfortable.

If a field is popular, no amount of telling potential school kids that the job chances are slight will sway them.
Learning "trade" has never been popular in Trinidad for one reason or another
Yet many don't know a certified skilled welder could make more money than a surgeon all around the world.

Esp in a small economy like ours, unless of course you are well connected.
A person worth their salt should aim to excel at whatever they can do and not depend on the profession itself to make them, of course again it is hard to tell a young person this.

so lets all not show our desire for mobility. lets be content and comfortable in our current state.
because when things get tough late at night, stressing you mind and body for a exam in a FLAWED education system....what does one do?? think of the rewards, think of the reason for it all over and over again.
so men who highest qualification is cxc in no position to ridicule persons who are now coming to terms with the fact they have been living a lie their whole academic career.
So u can call it entitlement. But its more of a LOGICAL expectation.
