Psychiatrist

Duties and responsibility
Psychiatrists are responsible for analyzing a patient's mental health status and providing the necessary treatment. They may admit patients to hospitals, order tests, prescribe medication or recommend therapy. Additionally, they hold regular discussions with patients to diagnose mental disorders or assess a patient's response to treatment. Some clinical psychiatrists manage their own practices, while others, such as those who work in hospitals or clinics, may report to a supervisor.

Salary:$181,880

Education:
Prospective clinical psychiatrists must complete a 4-year bachelor's degree program. Pre-medicine bachelor's degree programs are designed for future medical students, with courses in subjects such as biology, chemistry, anatomy, physics, psychology and social sciences. According to the BLS, students do not necessarily need to major in pre-medicine, but because of the scientific nature of medicine, it is advisable that students select a major that includes substantial coursework in math and science. Graduates typically must pass the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) before applying to medical school. The MCAT assesses a student's ability to complete a medical degree program.

Theirs is no demand on this profession, they have sufficient Psychiatrist.

Reflection:
I would not like to be a psychiatrist because i don't like to listen to people's problems. I am not much of a person with a ear. So i would not like to be one.
