Should I Be A Surgeon Quiz

Should you become a Surgeon?

There are many different careers to choose from, and it can be difficult to decide which one is the right fit for you. One important decision you'll have to make is whether or not to become a surgeon. Take this quiz to help you make up your mind.

Do you have the stomach for it?

No, literally. Do you have a strong stomach? If the sight of blood makes you queasy, then surgery is probably not the right career for you. Surgeons have to be able to deal with the sight of blood and gore on a regular basis. If you faint at the sight of a paper cut, then being a surgeon is probably not going to work out.

Are you good with your hands?

Surgery requires a lot of precision and skill. You'll need to have steady hands and know how to use them in order to perform surgeries successfully. Take some time to think about whether or not you have the manual dexterity required for this type of work.
