How to Choose Your PG Branch

*How to Choose Your PG Branch*

Once upon a time, a teacher took three biscuits of the same company and quality and painted them red, blue, and green. He told his students to run a 100-meter race, and the first three students would receive one biscuit each as a prize. His students ran the race, and the teacher asked the first-place student to choose a biscuit. He chose red because he liked the color. The second-place student chose blue because he liked that color, and the third-place student was left with green.

The teacher organized the race again the following year with similarly colored biscuits. The first student chose red, knowing that the previous year's first-place student had chosen red. The second student chose blue, as the previous year's second-place student had done, leaving green for the third-place student. This race became an annual tradition, even continuing after the teacher's passing. Every year, the first student chose red, the second chose blue, and the third chose green, regardless of their individual preferences.

As time passed, people began to believe that red biscuits were the best, blue biscuits were mediocre, and green biscuits were the worst. However, all the biscuits tasted the same. Can you guess what the colored biscuits represent? The red one represents Radiology, the blue one represents other clinical branches, and the green one represents para-clinical and non-clinical branches.

*Moral of the story: Choose your branch based on your skills and liking. Interestingly, every year, 10% of MBBS doctors leave their DNB seats after 3-6 months, and 2-5% leave their MD/MS seats. So, choose your branch and college wisely.*
