Saw this and it captures my experience exactly 😂😂😂
“😂THE FIRST TIME I SAW 300 LEVEL MBBS MCQs, I ALMOST CALLED MY PARENTS TO COME AND WITHDRAW ME 😭💔
Nothing prepared me.
Secondary school taught me that MCQ means:
A, B, C or D.
Pick one and go home.
Medical school said,
“You poor innocent child…” 😭😂
The first question I saw was:
A. Statements 1 and 2 are true.
B. Statements 1 and 3 are true.
C. Statements 2 and 4 are true.
D. All statements are true.
E. None of the above.
I looked at the paper.
The paper looked at me.
Both of us were confused. 😭😂
Then another one came:
If statement I is true and statement II is the correct explanation, choose A.
If statement I is true but statement II is not the correct explanation, choose B.
If statement I is true and statement II is false, choose C.
If statement I is false and statement II is true, choose D.
If both are false, choose E.
Omo…
At that point I wasn’t writing an exam anymore.
I was solving a family dispute. 😭💔😂
I read it again.
Still didn’t understand.
I even turned the paper upside down as if the answer would fall out. 😂
Then came TRUE/FALSE questions.
The lecturer would write:
“The liver is the largest internal organ.”
I smiled.
“Easy. True.”
Then I looked again.
It actually said:
“The liver is the second largest internal organ in healthy adults under specific physiological conditions except otherwise stated.”
😭😭😭💔
Excuse me??
Who added all these subtitles??
Medical school doesn’t ask whether you know.
It asks whether you know the exact wording. 😂
You’ll see five options:
✅ True
✅ True but incomplete
✅ False but almost true
✅ True except in rare circumstances
✅ All of the above except none of the below 😭😂
By the third question your brain starts making notification sounds.
“Low battery: 5% remaining.” 🔋😭
Then there is always that one friend.
After the exam you ask,
“Guy, how was it?”
He says,
“It was straightforward now.”
Straightforward??
Brother, were we in the same hall?? 😭😂
Another friend starts discussing answers loudly:
“For number 17 the answer was obviously C because statement II explains statement I through negative feedback involving the hypothalamus…”
Omo please…
Some of us are still trying to remember what course we just wrote. 😭💔😂
The funniest part is changing your answer.
You shade A.
You think.
You erase.
You shade C.
You think again.
You shade E.
Five minutes later you return to A.
At the end, the answer key says…
B. 😭😂💔
And don’t let the lecturer say after the exam,
“The questions were simple. They only tested understanding.”
Understanding??
Sir, the options alone were conducting viva on my destiny. 😭😂
Then results come out.
You score 48%.
You celebrate like you won the lottery because your roommate scored 32%. 😂💔
That was when I realized that 300 level is not just about intelligence.
It’s about surviving psychological warfare.
Because in medical school, sometimes the question is not asking what you know.
It’s asking whether your brain can still function after reading the options. 😭😂🩺”
WHAT DOCTORS SAY WHEN NOBODY IS WATCHING: WHAT I LEARNED FROM A ROOM FULL OF UGANDAN DOCTORS
By Henry Mutebe
As someone who works in public health but is not a medical doctor, I occasionally get the chance of sitting in spaces where these health professionals discuss their work at a depth that many of us outside medicine rarely get to see. Every time I do, I come away with a new appreciation of the profession.
A few weeks ago, I attended a mortality audit involving a pre-term baby who had, sadly, passed. This particular experience left a lasting impression on me. For those who may not know what a mortality audit is, it is essentially a structured review of a death. In this case, it was a baby born prematurely who was referred from another health facility and later passed away despite the efforts made to save the child's life.
What fascinated me was not simply the process itself, but the honesty, rigor, and depth with which it was conducted.
Let me paint for you a picture of what I saw. Basically, consultants/specialists, medical officers, interns, nurses, anesthetists, laboratory personnel, and other members of the care team sat in one room and then the case (the story of the child who had passed) was then presented in detail.
The presentation starts from the very beginning. Who was the patient? What was the mother's history? What happened during pregnancy? Were there any risk factors identified during antenatal care? Where was the baby born? What was the condition of the baby at birth?
When was the referral made? How long did the transfer take? What condition was the child in upon arrival? What interventions were done? What medicines were given? What investigations were requested? What were the results? At what exact time did each of these things happen? And then the discussion begins.
The team goes through the case almost minute by minute. Could the diagnosis have been made earlier? Was the right treatment given? Was it given at the correct dose? Was it given at the correct time? Were the laboratory results accurate? Were they interpreted correctly? Were the machines functioning properly? Had the equipment been serviced?
Were oxygen levels monitored correctly? Were there delays in referral? Were there missed opportunities during antenatal care? Were warning signs overlooked somewhere along the patient's journey? It is so detailed that nothing is taken for granted.
These guys question a lot of things. They asked so many things but that’s all I could, with my arts mind, remember
And there is a sense in which, despite the honesty with which its done, you feel like people are not looking for someone to blame, but they are looking for lessons. It was that method that got me hooked.
What struck me most was the extent to which the discussion was anchored in science, evidence, protocols, and guidelines. At every stage, people would ask: What do the guidelines say? Some Doctor would then state the guidelines on a certain dosage, procedure or issue. There is no gambling!
They would ask what is the recommended standard of care? Was the protocol followed? Was there any deviation from established practice? If there was, what was the reason? The discussion was not driven by opinions, seniority, or personalities. It is an examination of what was done mapped against what is recommended to be done.
The discussions were driven by evidence. There in that room, its science. They have absolute established guidelines and they do this with such relentless attention to detail. I found that profoundly impressive.
The level of care with which every step was examined was extraordinary. Tiny details that many of us would dismiss as insignificant were carefully scrutinized because in medicine, as I learnt during that meeting, sometimes the difference between life and death lies in what appears to be a small detail.
Mortality audits hold everyone to account.
