Parents hinting away from med?! How come?! Med's a good profession; suuure you have to con interviewers to get in, then spent half your life studying and after you get out of uni, it's a desperate crawl to the top with sleepless nights and 432432 hour weeks... As you can tell, I'm not so into med xD. But don't get me wrong, I do appreciate all the good work doctors do, just not the job for me =). Wait, were you on the "who wants to do medicine in 2011 thread'?
Ahhh, good ol' actuarial studies, I see you're a maths nerd =P How's 4u going? x)
