i want to be a pediatrician too. i think accounts and ecconomics are most unnessesary. i believe major mathes, for the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division are nessesary. the thing about it is that we need to change temperatures etc. we need maths, but if you do maths till about grade 10 the rest of your focus should be on biology, chemistry ect. not nerssesarily maths.

Also note that self-employed doctors who own or are part owners of their medical practice generally have higher median incomes than salaried physicians. Also note that earnings vary according to number of years in practice, geographic region, hours worked, and skill, personality, and professional reputation. Here is more input from others:
- My dad is a doctor and I know he makes between 200-250K a year, but I think this question can really vary depending upon if the doctor specializes in a certain type of surgery (might be much higher) or is a new doctor just starting his residency practice (might be much lower). My dad works in the emergency room as well as family clinics but doesn't do any kind of surgery. Hopefully a surgeon or other type of doctor can elaborate on this for you.
- The pay ranges really depend on specialty. Surgeons make 200k+. Some surgeons (specialists) can make 400k+. Primary care physicians (internists) make more like $135-170K depending on experience. Also, salary ranges are completely dependent on your area of the country, educational background, etc. It's all calculated on a case-by-case basis.
- A psychiatrist in the government working for the VA makes about 180,000+ after gaining seniority.
- An internal medicine MD (or physician) makes around 125,000+ for the government. Typically, neurosurgery or anything dealing with brain physiology & plastic surgery make around 500 dollars an hour.
- There is no exact amount that doctors get paid, it depends on your level of work. Doctors who have more experience and have been in the business longer will be paid more than rookies. Although, if rookies showed exceptional talent they might be paid more than average rookies. Altogether doctors are said to be paid more than the average everyday job. It depends on the fact if they're a pediatrician, surgeon, nurse, doc, etc.

A Pediatrician makes the most money in California

How does time inverse over current relay work?
Over Current (Inverse Time) Over current relay function monitors the general balanced overloading and has current/time settings. This is determined by the overall protective discrimination scheme. There advantage over definite time relays is that they can have much shorter tripping times can be obtained without any risk to the protection selection process. These are classified in accordance with there characteristic curves, this indicates the speed of the operation. Based on this they are defined as being inverse, very inverse or extremely inverse. The typical settings for these relays are 0.7-2In (normal or rated generator current) in 1-10 second. Inducing a calibrated test current through the normal load current tests this relay.

How many years of undergraduate schooling are needed to become a pediatrician?
A Pediatrician is a medical physician who specializes in Pediatrics. The bachelors degree (a four year program of study as a full-time student) can be in a number of areas and not specific to the exact sciences . Individuals enter medical schools from a variety of areas. For example, medical schools love candidates who are well grounded in the liberal arts area. Nonetheless, it would be advantageous to also make sure you are well grounded in the sciences. You can include this course work in many types of Bachelors degrees within the elective area. Some courses you should consider are as follows:
- Cell Biology
- Biology of the Organism
- Human Anatomy and Physiology I
- Human Anatomy and Physiology II
- Microbiology
- Inorganic, Organic and Biochemistry.
In addition, I would not automatically exclude a Bachelor's degree in Biology. There are options within the Biology Majors that are designed to prepare students for medical school. They are usually referred to as Pre-Med programs of study. I would also speak to some medical physicians and ask what they did while pursing their career goals. I would not speak to just one, but at least three. If you have a family doctor, this would be a good place to start. Sometimes you can pick up very good information that could be critical to your success. Lastly, contact some colleges or universities and speak to advisers whose areas of expertise lie within the medical field. Make sure whatever college or university you decide on is fully accredited by the regional accreditation agency responsible for that particular geographical area.
Where do you do your residency to be a pediatrician?
There are literally hundreds of pediatric residency programs in the US.
How can the man you have loved for many years suddenly become schizophrenic?
Schizophrenia is an adult-onset disorder. 60 percent of male sufferers and 78 percent of female sufferers will show no symptoms until age 19 or later. Onset may occur well into the 30's in both genders. The prodromal phase, the period before full blown symptoms occur, may last as long as 30 months, and will be accompanied by social withdrawal and disorganized thinking.
The first psychotic break (the first full manifestation of the disease) generally follows a period of stress. It may well come out of the blue. To an observer, particularly one close to the sufferer, it can be a shocking and terrifying thing to witness.
One day your husband seems fine, if stressed and agitated, the next he might be hiding in a closet insisting that vast conspiracies are targeting him or those he cares about, that he has supernatural powers of perception (he can read peoples minds and so forth), that he is touch telepathically with God, the Devil, the CIA, the mafia, ghosts, angels, etc., that the world he's been living in for the last two or three decades is now full of magic and monsters.
This isn't his fault. It isn't your fault. And if you can get him treatment quickly, the man you love isn't gone. He's hurting, he's living in a waking nightmare, but he isn't gone. Get him treatment, make him take his drugs, and he'll come back.
I'm not promising you he's going to be completely the same after his first break. He won't. It was far more traumatic for him than it was for you, and he won't recover from that trauma easily. Plus anti-psychotics have side effects.
If you truly love him, dig in, because this isn't going to be an easy process. It will, however, be worth it.
You do mean 'schizophrenic' as in literally mentally ill, don't you? I just want to make sure you're not just implying that he's changed or you think he's nuts. If you just think he's changed and don't like it, I don't know what to say except 'things change, people change.' You can try to work through it with him, learn to deal with it, or move on.
But if you honestly believe he's schizophrenic, what makes you think this? Could it be something else?
Does he drink or use drugs of any kind? Has he had a history of mental illness, like depression, OCD, anything? Any chance he could have kept a mental disorder and its treatment secret?
I'm no expert but I really don't think schizophenia just appears suddenly, unless maybe someone experiences trauma or receives a head injury of some sort, something that would act as a catalyst, that would 'set him off' so to speak.
Full blown schizophrenia - which if I recall correctly is rare - is a condition that develops over time and if it's like other mental illnesses will increase in severity or intensity the longer it goes untreated. There were almost certainly indications in the past that he may have been 'not all right,' and even more obvious hints of something amiss more recently.
Has he been diagnosed by a mental health professional? If not, his odd or erratic behaviour should be evaluated. It may be caused by something else that might require medical attention. Maybe something neurological like a tumor or a small stroke. I don't mean to frighten you, like I said I'm not a professional or expert of any sort, but if he hasn't been professionally evaluated and diagnosed, you should see to it that he gets to a doctor NOW.
If anyone has a more informed, expert opinion on this, I'd like to hear it as I'm certain you would! I just hope I've been able to offer you a little bit of help.
I wish you luck.
it may be "caffeine poisoning" rather then schizophrenia
"caffeine poisoning" happens when caffeine comes in faster then it can get out
it can cause schizophrenic symptoms which seem to appear rapidly (in a matter of weeks).

What is more important than life?
In answer to your question, I would say quality. The quality of life is obviously much more important than quantity, just look at how many people smoke pot. If they were after more quantity they wouldn't use, but they, as well as all of us, are looking for more quality. I also believe that in order to have a quality life, you must bloom where ever you are planted, and don't allow your conditions to drag you down. It's all up to you, in the end, to decide what's important to you, but remember that your mind can make you see things you've seen before, but overlooked a thousand times or more. So excersise your mind, read a news paper upside down, play a game of chess at the park, go salsa dancing with your imagination. I promise your mind will give you un-harvested pleasure, and when you truly free your thoughts, you will find the quality that we all seek.
if you really want to know the answer, I believe it is believes, many people devote his or her whole life into belief.
How many years of education do you need to become a nonfarm animal caretaker?
Usually no more then two.
If one goes to study in Australia in how many years will he or she become a permanent resident?
This is what I'm wanting to do as well. The way I understand it, first you're going to need a student visa and official acceptance at school/university in Australia. Once you get there, to work 20 hours a week, you'll need to apply for permission to work on the student visa (just a formality and extra small payment). You really didn't ask all of that, but that's what you need to do to get to Australia to study. After you've graduated/completed your studies, you then have to apply for a visa via Australia's skilled migration program. You have 6 months after you successfully complete your studies to do so, in which case you will be exempt from the work history requirement (you must study in Australia for at least two years to be exempt from this requirement), but you will still be assessed for the skills you should've gotten while studying (that is, the occupation you list on your residency/work visa). I don't think there's a guarantee that you will get a work/resident visa, but if you're completing a university degree in Australia, I think it's much more likely that you will get the work visa. This makes you a resident, if you are applying from within Australia. Then you need to live in Australia for the next 2 years (two out of the last five years) to apply for Australian citizenship. Two good links: http://www.immi.gov.au/study/extending/index.htm That one covers different ways to try to extend your study in Australia during or after studying there. And this link: http://www.australearn.org/ A very good site that can help you with attending an Australian university as an international student. Good luck, and I hope you wish me the same!
