This is a huge misconception that most people have. It is widely believed that medical students are so concentrated on their studies that they do not have time to do any other thing. A lot of people are surprised when they hear that a medical student is doing something extracurricular especially if he/she is good at it, they think it's a distraction and most of these people expect such students to fail in their academics.
Let me introduce you to my course mates Nneoma Nwosu and Bella Njionye, the girls in the photo. Nneoma (the lady on black) is a dancer and an amazing one at that, she is also into fashion designing. Bella on the other hand is a make up artist and a business lady. A lot of my colleagues and senior colleagues are into a lot of things, we have photographers, make up artists, journalists, ICT gurus,writers, just to mention a few. Studying medicine does not mean you can not do any other thing, you just have to learn how to manage your time well.
