Just wanted to know if you are, how do you still find time to do all this on top of work. I'm planning on studying medicine so I know my social lifes gonna go down the drain but hopefully I'll still find the time for a surf every morn?

Im not a doctor but I work, have a wife that works and we have two young kids. I reckon Its all about time management. Have a calander and every Sunday night look at the forecast and plan your week ahead. Jot down class times, study times, work times and most importantly play time. Stick to it. So at least you know that when your studying there is a surf or SUP as a reward. Then every 3 days ajust your study times around the forecast. I reckon if you stress out with no fun hours then your gonna go mad

If you live between the Capes then yes, but I don't think you can study Medicine by correspondance, so in that case I could safely say no.
Perhaps 5-10 days per year (that is being very optimistic) if you live in the Perth metropolitan area (trips to Rattsnest or 3 mile reefs not included)

BTW, I am not a doctor. I am a commerce graduate so really there is little difference [}:)]

I'm not a doctor.

Think more about how much surfing you'll be able to do in your life. As a GP, you could live anywhere in the world.

Even as an emergency doctor you can live wherever... business just doesn't offer as many good jobs in those locations...

If you want to be a top heart surgeon then you'll have to live in a big city though..
