I'm a nurse and I observe women (staff and patients alike) routinely falling all over medical students and doctors, so I would say that it will probably have a positive effect on your dating prospects. Undeniably there is something appealing about a man fulfilling this role since it speaks of power and responsibility - but also compassion, which is fairly unique among top-end male dominated professions. I think I have been in the job too long though since I tend to imagine the other side of it - long hours and relentless dedication to the job.
Actually, on that note - a word of caution; don't get too distracted! Medical training is extremely demanding and requires a lot of focus to see it through to the end. I've seen many a med student fall by the way side over-indulging on the returns of their career choice, and I'm always sad to see talents wasted. There will be a whole lifetime for that.
Good luck!
Talk about how bad the shortage of doctors in Australia is, and tell her your aspirations of leaving med school and aiding in Australia's lack for doctors. Talk about how you want to spend Christmas in a hospital with the sick kids and your patients who don't get to go home. I have 3 med friends in WA and I would fall in love with them because of their passion to help. One of my friends is writing a thesis on the cure for HIV for his honours. He would talk me through their research and discoveries in both medical term and then give me analogies so I understand it better.
Doing Med in Australia is way different than in America. You have tests on your compassion and it is obviously harder to get in due to the lack of teachers and doctors. So don't listen to those Americans who don't understand our culture.
Well, girls like smart guys, and caring guys. So if your a doctor you hold both of the characteristics so yes it will definitely attract her.
As far as bringing it up in conversation, don't just be like "oh yeah so I go to the best med school in Australia, by the way." because then you sound stuck up. Rather, just wait for her to ask you what your going to school for, or if you really want to tell her, ask her what she is studying first, chances are she'll ask you back :)
**note: many girls will take advantage of this fact tho, so just make sure she is genuine! Good luck with med school and girls!
I'm in Med school and I can tell you that it works. it's the kind of thing you leave like trump card. NEVER lead with it. Only use it if absolutely necessary and be humble about it. Stuffhappens brought a valid and useful point. Graduation is far away so you should look at community and charity work to add to your work experience and have something to tell the ladies. The problem with being a Med student is that you may come across gold-diggers who see you as an investment. Congratulations on getting in. This career is amazing and as long as you are enjoying yourself and bettering yourself as a person the women will follow .
Of course, every girl will be attracted to an alpha male with a future, and a plan to feed his family.
However, you must be humble. Mention it only if she asks you what you study.
Or you could ask her what her occupation is, then she'll probably ask you.

It carries that sort of stigma and is quite easy to bring up ie: "so what do you do?" *answer + returned question* "oh cool! I'm studying medicine at blah de blah".
But seeing how you seem to weigh the attractiveness boost of the degree as a main benefit of it I don't think you need to worry about sounding like a douche. That time has long since passed.
If you brag about being smart it's off-putting. Just act how you normally act and you'll find someone who likes you. You don't want a girl to like you for potential income because of the doctor thing. That's why girls are "supposed" to like doctors - not for their intelligence.
Assuming the girl is after solely after your (your personality etc).
1) Your job or income would not matter to her.
2) You will sound like a douche when you put "I am in the best med school" on the table as a reason as to why she should be with you.
If she is only after money and prestige (oh I hate that kind of a ****), then yes laying out "I am in the best med school" ASAP would be a good choice.
I like a smart guy.. But I don't like a guy who points out that he's smart.
If you're talking to someone the question "what do you do?" will probably come up in conversation relatively early so you can say it then.. If it doesn't and you really want it to, ask her first.
No sh*t. Nothing drys up a girls p**** faster than reaching for her wallet. When she hears med student she thinks "yes now I can be treated like a princess and not pay for stuff". Never realizing that shifts are ape sh*t crazy and he will be spending most of his hours dedicated to his work.
Yes, and of course being a doctor only makes you more so. Even the biggest prick, horrid and paltry in every way other than having his medical degree, can get girls to fall all over themselves for him. Just flash your amex at them a few times and you're in. Good luck finding a quality girl to put up with all that, though...
The fact that you may be wanting to bring it up to use to your "advantage" means that you possibly have douche-y intentions already.
It really does. But occupation , look etc these are like decoration
Important part is inner side, personality.
Yes but not if you are a dick, and all full of yourself, be humble about it than yes it will drive us crazy
really depends. I met three emts over the past year and they were just too busy with anything.
You already sound like a douche
No offense
Just talk to her and stop trying to attract. Girls the wrong way
Being Australian would ;)
Good luck on med school btw.
Well you will have lots of money so yes
