TASK TWO

The Demands of Medical Practice Is More Demanding than Law Practice.

Introduction:

medical practitioner means a person who holds a valid registration from the Medical Council of

any State or Medical Council of India or Council for Indian Medicine or for Homeopathy set up

by the Government of India or a State Government and is thereby entitled to practice medicine

within its jurisdiction; and is acting within its scope and jurisdiction of license. The registered

practitioner should not be the insured or close Family

In the realm of professional careers, few fields can match the rigorous demands and

responsibilities placed upon medical practitioners. While both medical and law practices require

extensive education and commitment, it is arguable that medical practice surpasses law practice

in terms of the intensity and complexity of its demands. This article will explore three key points

that highlight the unique challenges faced by medical professionals and shed light on why

medical practice is more demanding than law practice.


I. Rigorous Education and Training:

Medical practice necessitates an arduous and protracted journey of education and training.

Compared to law practice, becoming a physician involves years of rigorous study, specialized

training, and residency programs. Medical students undertake lengthy undergraduate programs,

followed by four years of medical school, and then proceed to residency training that can range

from three to seven years. In contrast, aspiring lawyers typically complete an undergraduate

degree, followed by three years of law school.

II. Complexity of Knowledge:

The depth and breadth of knowledge required in medical practice far exceed that of law practice.

Medical professionals must possess a profound understanding of the human body, complex

disease processes, and an ever-evolving array of diagnostic and treatment modalities. The

continuous advancements in medical research and technology demand that physicians stay

abreast of the latest scientific findings and best practices. On the other hand, while legal

professionals must possess a deep understanding of statutes, case law, and legal precedents, the

scope of their knowledge remains primarily focused on the legal framework and its

interpretation.

III. High-Stakes Decision Making:

The life-and-death nature of medical practice places immense pressure on healthcare

professionals. Physicians are routinely entrusted with critical decisions that can have profound

consequences for their patients. The need to navigate complex medical conditions, weigh risks

and benefits, and make split-second decisions in emergency situations adds an extraordinary
burden to their daily responsibilities. Although lawyers handle important legal matters, the

immediate impact of their decisions typically does not involve matters of life and death to the

same extent as medical practitioners.

Conclusion:

While both medical and law practice demand a significant commitment of time, effort, and

intellectual rigor, medical practice stands out as an inherently more demanding profession. The

extensive education and training, the breadth and depth of medical knowledge, and the high-

stakes decision-making inherent in patient care contribute to the exceptional demands faced by

medical professionals. Acknowledging the challenges faced by those in the legal field, it is

crucial to recognize the unique demands placed upon medical practitioners, making medical

practice more demanding than law.

TASK FOUR

% STUDENT TYPES OF AVERAGE AVERAGE

WRITING FREQUENCY LENGTH

57 ESSAY 5 PER TERM 2000 WORDS

34 REPORT 2 PER TERM 4000 WORDS

14 DISSERTATION 1 PER YEAR 8000 WORDS

12 THESIS 1 AFTER 2-3 300 - 1000 PAGES

YEARS
IN PROSE

In the year 2021, 26 out of 50 students wrote 5 essays of about 2000 words each during a term.

Just 17 out of 50 students wrote two reports of about 4000 words. When it came to writing on

dissertation, just 7 of them addressed the writing once a year, about 8000 words. Surprisingly,

only 6 of the students wrote within two-three years. One thesis writing about 300 - 1000 pages.

Probably, it was yearly that there were fewer students who tried on this thesis.

TASK FIVE

structure in the centre which has two part way to walk through going to the library. As you walk

along the brick stairs, before reaching the university library, you see a first turn by your right and

you walk through that path. That path walks you into the Senate building.

TASK SIX A

What is a curriculum vitae (CV)?

CV (curriculum vitae) provides a summary of your experience and skills. Typically, CVs for

entry-level candidates are longer than resumes—at least two or three pages. CVs for mid-level

candidates who have amassed numerous publications tend to run much longer.

What Is a Resume?
A resume provides a summary of your education, work history, credentials, and other

accomplishments and skills.1 There are also optional sections, including a resume objective and

a career summary statement.

Note

Resumes are the most common document requested of applicants in job

(Curriculum Vitae) and resume are both commonly used to apply for jobs, but there are distinct

differences between the two. Here are six differences between a CV and a resume:

Length: A CV is typically longer than a resume. A CV provides a comprehensive overview of

your academic and professional history, including all relevant details, publications, presentations,

awards, and more. It can be several pages long, especially for individuals in academic or research

fields. On the other hand, a resume is concise and usually limited to one or two pages, focusing

on the most relevant and recent information related to the job you are applying for.

Purpose: A CV is more commonly used for academic, research, or scientific positions. It

emphasizes your educational background, research experience, publications, and academic

achievements. A resume, on the other hand, is the preferred format for most other industries and

focuses more on your work experience, skills, and qualifications directly related to the job you

are applying for.

Content: A CV includes more detailed information about your educational background, such as

the names of the institutions you attended, dates of attendance, degrees earned, academic honors,
and relevant coursework. It also includes a comprehensive list of your professional experience,

research projects, publications, conference presentations, teaching experience, grants, and other

academic accomplishments. A resume, on the other hand, emphasizes your work experience,

skills, achievements, and professional qualifications, typically listing your employment history in

reverse chronological order.

Flexibility: A CV allows you to include all relevant information, regardless of its length. It

provides a comprehensive overview of your entire career, including all academic and

professional experiences. A resume, on the other hand, requires you to be more selective and

focus on the most important and relevant information, tailored specifically to the job you are

applying for.

Audience: A CV is generally used when applying for academic positions, research opportunities,

fellowships, or grants. It is often reviewed by committees or panels who evaluate candidates

based on their academic achievements, research potential, and contributions to the field. A

resume, on the other hand, is typically submitted to hiring managers or recruiters in non-

academic industries who are primarily interested in your work experience and skills that directly

relate to the job.

Formatting: CVs tend to have a standardized format with specific sections such as education,

research experience, publications, presentations, and more. There is more flexibility in

formatting a resume, and you can choose a design and layout that best presents your information

in a clear and visually appealing manner.


In summary they are both give a summary of our experience and skills but CV is more longer

than Resume.The maximum pages of resume is 2 pages
