Hello..
I need your opinion....I already graduated and had a master degree in information technology...However, i really feel that I want to further my study in medical course, which mean i have to go through undergraduate again...since my parents are doctor, so I feel that my heart still prefer to be doctor, though last time I did my self choose the information technology as my course...my age is 24 years...what do u think?should i take medical course?

The grandfather of a friend of mine once said:
"Choose a job doing what you like, and don't work another day in your life."

who is paying for all this education ? It would seem that perhaps you might use IT skills in a medical field, (there are specail programs for that in masters programs) get some experience around it,just bcasue yr parents are doctors doesnt mean you'll like it or even be suited for it.
Its long and tedious with forced hours awake of basically slave labor(residency) and no respect unitl you finally complete the whole program. Its not like on TV. Depending on what country you are to practice, you may be severely limited in yr job by health insurances/legalities/govt regs.
Then the opportunites are changing in the future for doctors not to be sucha lucrative and rewarding job as in the past. DO some serious thinking and exploration on this before you just change. Sometimes you need to focus on one thing at a time before just picking up everything and changing.

Ask your self this question: Ten or 20 years down the line , or talking to children/grandchildren , will you regret not becoming a doctor? 24 is less than 25. If you really want to be a doctor, go ahead. It training will not be a waste, By the time you get your degree , It would be an imp tool in medicine also

If you feel motivated enough and that the time is right, you probably should. Ask the university if your previous degree will help reduce the number of credits you need to receive to get a medical degree. It doesn't make sense to have to take many of the same classes over again to get credit for them.

whatever would make you happier, don't follow your parents just for the sake of it, it would seem you are wasting your valuable degree though. But you must follow your insincts and your heart, you're still young so you can train to be a doctor and get a good career. Go for it, believe in yourself!! And good luck xx

Complete your studies in the medical field.
After completing your studies and it ends up you not liking the medical field then you can go back to Info Tech or try something else.
You are young and have time to see what it is you like.
