Courses which can be opted in medical career instead of MBBS:

-

Every job which is available on earth has got some value to society. According to the jobs, there are college degrees to prepare the students. When it comes to careers especially in India, the MBBS course is overvalued. The overvaluation is caused by the plethoric (excessive) attraction and seat demand this degree has gained from a few decades. In recent years this degree has become something like 'Shahi' (Royal). This degree more than a societal need-based has become a pride or job guarantee scheme (But things have worsened in this career aftermath MBBS degree too). 

This degree as said has attracted a royal tag which comes with a tittle ‘Dr Saab’ or ‘Dr Ji’ or 'Doctorre' in Kannada. Because of all these nonchannelized career guidance or no guidance at all, many important jobs of a hospital which are also very important are undervalued. At the same time, the need for an MBBS degree is not ignored, this is a very crucial healthcare qualification in our health system, which cannot be denied at all. But the point here is what are the qualifications which are equally important for a healthcare system. 

There is unnecessary pride attached to the MBBS, which is making lakhs of students to go to the MBBS route and increasing the competition level further. Many students go for a long term NEET by giving extra 1 or 2 years attempting for NEET. The NEET preparation cost in few NEET preparation academies is sometimes more than the government MBBS college annual fee. If you look at long term NEET repeaters only a few get succeed into getting a government medical seat. When it comes to a direct MBBS private seat, the full course budget exceeds the Rupees crore mark. This is causing a lot of demotivation to the students as well as parents.

If you look at a hospital, the hospital is run not only by MBBS, but there are a lot of professionals who are equally important to run a hospital set up. It is high time to look at the multiple medical career opportunities rather than going on a single route i.e. MBBS, and jam the traffic to worsen it further.

A student can opt for graduation in Bsc in allied medical sciences, medical and healthcare technologies. After BSc, a student can also opt for a Master degree too.

10 things to protect your child from social media:

- Did you know?  Bill Gates did not give his children cell phones until they were 14 years old.  And even Apple's Steve Jobs was conscious of his children's phone usage. A large number of CEOs and prominent figures of Silicon Valley companies significantly reduce the time their children spend in contact with technology. How addicted are your children to cell phone? How much time do they spend in front of a screen? Would you let your children do the same? Or are you following strategies to make them use cell phone only for necessary use. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends to limit technology according to the age of the children, since there is a great fear that the use of the devices will become compulsive and uncontrolled. There are people who compare social media to drugs, by quoting that social media makes children addicted to their phones, which becomes a habit from which it is difficult to come out. What is social media? Social media is any digital tool that all...

Education system in Greece and Rome in ancient times: (In Urdu)-

یونان اور روم میں نظامِ تعلیم ڈاکٹر عرفان حبیب مغربی تعلیم کی تاریخ کا آغاز حضرت عیسیٰؑ سے سیکڑوں برس پہلے، یونانی قوم کی تعلیمی سرگرمیوں سے ہوتا ہے۔ اس تاریخ میں بیسویں صدی کی شروعات تک ایک تسلسل پایا جاتا ہے۔ ابتدائی دور میں یونانی شہری ریاستوں میں رہتے تھے۔ شروع ہی سے ان کے یہاں تعلیم کو بڑی اہمیت دی جاتی تھی۔ اچھے شہری تیار کرنے کے لیے تعلیم ضروری تھی۔ یہ ریاستیں دشمنوں میں گھری ہوئی تھیں اور اکثر اندرونی خطروں کا بھی سامنا کرنا ہوتا تھا۔ اس لیے شہریوں کی اس طرح سے تربیت ضروری تھی کہ وہ اندرونی اور بیرونی خطروں کا اچھی طرح مقابلہ کر سکیں۔ اس یونانی سماج کی بنیاد، غلامی کے نظام پر تھی جس میں غلاموں کی تعداد آزاد شہریوں سے کہیں زیادہ تھی۔ تجارت اور ہاتھ سے کام کرنے کو معیوب سمجھا جاتا تھا اور یہ کام غلاموں سے لیے جاتے تھے، اس لیے شہریوں کو کوئی ٹیکنیکل تعلیم حاصل کرنے کی ضرورت نہیں تھی۔ شہری ریاستیں کئی باتوں میں ایک دوسرے سے مختلف تھیں اور اس لیے ان کے تعلیم کے مقاصد بھی جدا جدا تھے مثلاً سپارٹا اور ایتھنز کے تعلیمی نظام بالکل الگ الگ تھے۔ سپارٹا کے شہری اپنے علاقے می...
