A Transitional Experience: Basic Science to Clinical Rotation

Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery is a roller coaster journey that is educational yet emotional. Because of how the context and responsibilities change throughout time, learning is exciting. Nevertheless, the exposure to basic science during this course teaches us to be diligent, committed, and compassionate, and it also gets us ready for the next stage of clinical practice. For us as students, the primary areas that change as a result of this transformation are professional networking, workload, patient interaction, time management, leadership, and communication skills. In this journey, the transition is inevitable so we need to adapt to change seamlessly. Additionally, extracurricular activities play a significant role in this journey.
