6.1 How do I deal with friends who are always
depending on me for lecture notes?
You should feel good as it means
that your notes are good, easy to understand and that your friends find you
trustworthy. Do remember that if you help others God will help you. Regard it
as a way of helping your friend who is not as organized as you are. Remember
that studying medicine is like going to a war where everybody has to work as a
team to get the victory, i.e. having a degree in medicine and being a
successful doctor it is a degree with which you can serve the community better
and help to increase the standard of health care in this country. Remember that
today your friend need your lecture notes, another day you may need their notes
because none of us can be sure that we can maintain and enjoy good health all
the time.
A friend
in need is a friend indeed.
A day may come when you are unwell and need your friends’
help with the notes for the missed lectures. Futhermore, your friends in
medical school will be lifelong because there is every possibility that you may
become specialists in the different specialties when you will be referring
cases to each other.
Always attend lectures and take
you own notes according to your understanding of the lecture and then compare
them to your friends’. Don’t depend completely on others’s notes as they might
not be complete.
Keep your fears to yourself, but share your inspiration with others.

(1850-1894)

student; Muhaya Hj Mohamad)
