Kompletterande utbildning för utländska läkare - one semester down

The first semester here at KUL Gothenburg was mainly Medicine and Psychiatry. Ten weeks for the first and four for the latter. Here they have test for each subject when it's finished. I got to know today that I cleared Psychiatry as well. I'm feeling very blessed. It was very hectic though. 4 and a half month of really hard time balancing home, baby and traveling daily to Gothenburg from Halmstad. Oh, and studies too.

Working, new rules

It's been a really long time since I posted here. I have been really busy, both with work and in personal life. Work has gone good. It was a rich experience working at a clinic as a doctor. For the most part, I was treated like any other doctor in terms of what patients I get. But I did feel like it would be great to have license after AT/internship/housejob. I got to learn a lot more about the system and practical things. I even have a few patients who really want to just have me as their GP/husläkare. I wish it was easier to begin with AT and go faster to specialization because it's no fun to know so little. Plus temporary underläkare don't get any time from work hours to study (instuderingstid). Anyway, there have been tough periods, but mostly a good experience for a first job. So now it's just to continue applying for AT untill I get it. And to remember to not give up on my dreams despite how long it takes. Even though medicine is a big part of our lives as doctor...

Being a foreigner in Sweden?

One of my teachers said that the struggle of having competition among working people and complaints regarding reduction of available jobs due to immigration is basically a problem of the low educated population. When I gave it a thought, it appeared to be plausible. Studying and working in Sweden, I have never come across any situation where I've been discriminated for being a foreigner or a Muslim. Either I have been very lucky till now or it really is the case that my teacher was talking about. I sometimes think when people meet me and see a brown Muslim they begin thinking all kinds of thoughts, but then stop short in their thought process once they hear I'm a doctor and I will be/ already am a part of work force. It might be different for others. I've come across people saying that you won't get a job due to your last name, you have to work 3 times harder just because you are not from here. My way has been to block out all these voices and continue moving forward ...

The dreaded TULE exam

It's time to write the post I was never looking forward to writing. Because this is about NOT clearing TULE. My worst nightmare has come true. Something I had never expected and still am unable to accept. I have to admit it, I am still shocked, and wake up every day hoping and wishing that all this that happened in the past month was just a bad dream. But it's not. It's true. I did give the exam, and I did not clear it. That makes me feel like a really dumb student, because this kind of failure is something I have never experienced, nor awaited. Let me go into the background a little bit. I am a good enough student of medicine, I have never failed any exam, I chose this profession by my own choice and I am very passionate about it. Since the time I found out I'd be moving to Sweden, I have been trying to find out about this particular test. From whatever I gathered (and I can't quote any sources, unfortunately) the practical test is a breeze, because all th...
