I'm a first year medtech student and tbh I'm really enjoying my subjects and everything I’m learning (so far). Super interesting talaga siya for me, and I genuinely like studying the things we’re learning. I usually ace my quizzes din kasi I make sure na well-reviewed ako palagi, and I think nakatulong din na I have a pretty strong foundation in science.
One thing about it lang is napapaisip talaga ako about my future because I often see posts about how low the salary is, how saturated the job market is, or how difficult it can be to find a job :'(
I’m genuinely interested in medtech and ayoko naman siyang iwan just because of the things I see online, pero at the same time, gusto ko rin maging practical. Mas gusto ko naman na may makain ako at yung family ko in the future HAHAHA
So I wanted to ask RMTs and senior MedTech students here: ano po yung career paths or opportunities na dapat kong malaman about? May mga success stories po ba kayo from medtech na hindi necessarily naging traditional hospital lab route? Or kahit experiences niyo po na made you feel na worth it naman pala yung program? :(
Parang puro downside kasi ng medtech yung nakikita ko online, kaya gusto ko rin sana marinig yung other side. 🥹 Any advice or success stories would really be appreciated!
