Even if you don't have perfect APGAR scores, you can still become a doctor/surgeon, just not a rocket surgeon. And that human to goldfish brain transplant though.... truly cutting edge. So You Want to Be a Neurosurgeon: czcams.com/video/RsxFLccGPH8/video.html covers more about cutting edge brain surgery.
I actually wanted to be a Rocket Surgeon growing up, but when I was four years old my dreams were dashed when I scored an A- on my calculus final. It was a dark time in my life.
After finishing the video and reading the comments then upload date, i finnaly realized this is a joke… I really thought it was future career about doing surgery in space etc
@@esme4212 Lol ......... the MCAT is very important, but it is not the end all be all ............. as long as you fall in the range the school wants ........ don't worry about it ........ lol 🙃 .......... What is more important is you align yourself with the schools mission statement ............... If the school is looking for LEADERS in the medical field ......... you can be a biology major with a 4.0 GPA and MCAT = 527 ........... If the school does not think you are a leader ......... you WILL NOT ...... get into that medical school ......... LMAO
I’m a doctor (first year) doing my neurosurgery rotation. The other day as I was doing a procedure, the senior was talking me through it and he was like, “See. It’s not rocket science.” In my mind I was like, “… but it is brain surgery 🤨”
I recommend all future rocket surgeons to blast off their career with a good score on their medical degree; aiming for the stars is how we do! The experience is truly out of this world.
What career path would you recommend for those of us who scored a 100 on our calculus test when we were embryos? Is pediatric cardiothoracic neuro-oncology rocket surgery a decent goal?
This really got me! I saw the title and was like wait a Rocket Surgeon? I’ve never heard of this, is this real? Lol then I got about 2 mins in and was like waaaaait a minute….it’s April Fool’s day 😂 this was a good one Dr. Jubal!
After finishing the video and reading the comments then upload date, i finnaly realized this is a joke… I really thought it was future career about doing surgery in space etc
Wait, so this was an April Fool's joke?? I am not amused. 😞 I was literally about to look up rocket surgery to see who spent 30+ years to become one. Damn it. You got me.
Look my grandfather (one of the first rocket surgeon attendings back in the 1960s) didn’t perform the first extravehicular appendectomy on himself while fist fighting the Russians en route to the moon on the highly classified Apollo 35 just for all of you to make light of his career choice.
That work-life balance joke had me cracking up for like 10 minutes straight. When I could catch my breath, I left my room to show it to everyone else in the house and they were all dying too. Absolute gem here sir
I thought this was fake when you said 25hr a day of surgery, but then I realized that the days are longer when you father travel away from the sun. Silly me.
Kevin Jubbal MD, you never cease to amaze me. A whole 8 minutes for a joke. Come on. Please I need some mentoring on how to do this whole story telling thing because its mind blowing.
*Psh* April Fools, Shmaple Tools. I'm going to be the best damn Rocket Surgeon that ever existed, just you wait! I've already mastered the art of putting on a band aid to any boo-boo's that may occur to me, AND I've managed to put a single kerbal into space in Kerbal Space Program. So yeah, I think it's safe to say that I got this position in the bag thank you very much. They might as well give me that $690,000 annual compensation right now. Save themselves the trouble.
Ever since I was a child, I've always wanted to be a rocket surgeon. It was sort of like a calling. I feel like I was put on earth to become a rocket surgeon. It was the sole purpose of my existence. At first, I realized that becoming a rocket surgeon is no easy task, it takes an insane amount of work and dedication. But I knew for A FACT that I could do it, I'm capable of doing it, and I must do it. My life won't be complete otherwise. I remember, in 5th grade, our class teacher handed us a fill-up sheet regarding our ambition. I was clearly set on my goal so I wrote 'rocket surgeon', I was confident in my decision. I handed the paper to the teacher. I'll never forget their expression as they read my paper. They started LAUGHING, I kid you not. My ''friends'' and teachers wondered if I was mentally unstable. From that day forward, my goal was to prove them wrong. I WILL prove them wrong. Now you must be wondering, DID I PROVE THEM WRONG?? After 22 years of education, countless therapy sessions, Student loans, Debts, a Mountain of books, tears, missed parties, no emotional relationships with a single human being (including my parents), and 0 friends, I'm proud to say that I've succeeded. To all aspiring rocket surgeons, there will be a few sacrifices and hardships, but trust me, it is worth it. Sincerely, a sleep-deprived insomniac super-rich rocket surgeon
I knew a person that got a bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering and then went to Medical School, now I know what he probably became. Also impressive cuz you have to get a pretty high gpa in premed to get into Medical School and mechanical/aerospace engineers often have lower GPAs. Which isn't a big deal unless you want to become... A rocket surgeon.
This was a really good chance to make a video about physician-astronauts and the most common pathways most physicians take to become astronauts. Nowadays it’s EM to military aligned with an engineering background, since most physicians don’t have pilot licenses.
Do they do interventional procedures too? I wonder if submarine neuro-interventional marine radiation oncopharmacologists would start to take over some of the procedures they do
As funny as this might be, some of us are actually looking to become surgeons and receive astronaut training to eventually be one of the few physicians in the first crews to colonize the moon and mars. Not just keep the other astronauts healthy, but continue running experiments, and assist in space exploration. With SpaceX starship, we should be colonizing the moon before this decade, and you can bet that first crew will have a trained physician. PS. I did find this entertaining, but it's crazy to think of physicians one day in space. Some already are in the International space station.
Hi Dr. Jubbal! Could you please make a video on residency (route, competition, residency application, pros n cons) after doing MD with some other advanced degreees like PhD, MPH, MS (Physician-Scientist track)?

could you guys potentially do a law school insider series? @med school insider ?
My APGAR scores were 7 and 8 at 1 and 5 minutes, so I can't apply for rocket surgery residency.
Not gunna lie, he had me untill about 2 minutes lol
neurosurgeon is still better
PLEASE do fetal surgery. I really want to know more about it.
The fact that he made a whole 8 min video for a joke
Rocket surgery is no joke
@@MedSchoolInsiders Seriously man, I don't buy it.
I'm 2 minutes in and was thinking wtf is this lol
I died when you said “how do you hide $100 from a rocket surgeon…..you place it behind a 2nd place trophy.” THIS JOKE WILL BE TOLD TO MY KIDS ONE DAY

I’m here on April 13. I thought it was like a specialty for astronauts then was like…. Ohhhhh

If there was a speciality for people with “pre-med” in their bio, this it.

@@testimonyakinwumi it’s called a question lmfao I do not have premed in bio. Simple question
I love that it followed the same script as it usually did
The recurring hip thrusts joke absolutely got me LOL!
Hip thrusts are not a joke
Rocket surgeon? I’m just focused on doing well on my MCAT in 2 weeks 😭 but this is definitely fascinating lol
lol not interested but why you in everybody's youtube channel lol .............. this is a joke lol
My MCAT is next month and I’m stressed. So much for trying to be a rocket surgeon 😭😭

Good luck on your MCAT
Even though this is a joke rocket surgery still sounds interesting🤣🤣
I was halfway through the video and realized something is really off, and it hits me what date it is
I’m a doctor (first year) doing my neurosurgery rotation. The other day as I was doing a procedure, the senior was talking me through it and he was like, “See. It’s not rocket science.” In my mind I was like, “… but it is brain surgery 🤨”
The average salary of 420k and 690k was very clever.
I lost it at “actually perform surgery on the rocket itself” lmao

Rocket surgery is the only answer
@@MedSchoolInsiders Truth! Can’t wait for a day in the life of a rocket surgeon
I think there's an opening at God you can scope out.
I would’ve loved to be a rocket surgeon, But when I was 6 months old I got a 99 on my AP Calculus exam. I guess it just isn’t for everyone 😭
99 out of 5?? Sir, you are a genius

I can’t believe how much work you put into this! You’re a legend!
Hahaha! You got me in the beginning! A profession combining doctor and engineer would've been a dream!
Hello Linda, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the Virus??
After finishing the video and reading the comments then upload date, i finnaly realized this is a joke… I really thought it was future career about doing surgery in space etc
You could do Biomedical Engineering.
Wait, so this was an April Fool's joke?? I am not amused. 😞 I was literally about to look up rocket surgery to see who spent 30+ years to become one. Damn it. You got me.
There are and have been astronauts who are physicians. Their timeline isn't so far from what he described here.
Lmao 🤣 I was halfway through the video man!!!
We demand "A day in the life of a rocket surgeon"
I was actually watching seriously for the first 30 Seconds, then realised it's 1 st april 😂
I woud love to see pathology, infectious disease, heme-onc and pharmacology videos.
Also, merry prank day on April 1st.
Seconding all of these! I feel like there's an ID episode already but I could be wrong, and if I am, I definitely want to see one
This definitely got me there for a minute to realize that its April fools
when he said human to goldfish.... That was it for me 🤣
....Well you caught on faster than I did.... LMAOOO
i’m just a primary spermatocyte in my dads balls, but I want to be a rocket surgeon when I grow up now thank you med insiders
lmaooo 👏👏👏
I like how you made it so real that people would have believed it.
Pathologist will be a good option for this series
It's coming 🤫
e
Nephrology
darong
there is at least 1 person who took this seriously and i love it
you had me at APGAR scores 😂😂😂😂😂

“On himself” 😂😂

I gave up on my dream of becoming a rocket surgeon when I got a 97% on my organic chemistry final.
It’s for the best
@@MedSchoolInsiders lol
This was honestly the best April fools EVER!!!
thanks dr. jubbal, I'll need this 50 years from now once we're in the metaverse
It took me 2 whole minutes to understand he isn’t making sense for some reason 😂😂😂😂😂 loved this!
The 4 + 4 + 4 + 10 training path killed me😂😂😂
I thought this was fake when you said 25hr a day of surgery, but then I realized that the days are longer when you father travel away from the sun. Silly me.

2 minutes and 4 seconds into the video is when I finally figured it out 😂. Good one as Always Doc!
I never expected to crack up during a whole video on this channel, yet here I am 🤣
I hate how interesting and real you made this, this was good 😂

What were your APGAR scores tho
"So you want to be a vascular surgeon" next pleaseeee I have been waiting for it for so long
He had us in the first half
you had me at "space monkey surgery"
I knew a person that got a bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering and then went to Medical School, now I know what he probably became. Also impressive cuz you have to get a pretty high gpa in premed to get into Medical School and mechanical/aerospace engineers often have lower GPAs. Which isn't a big deal unless you want to become... A rocket surgeon.
Not me googling rocket surgery…lmao it’s April Fools 🤣🙃
Could you please cover thermonuclear endocrinology in one of your next videos? Thanks
Absolutely hilarious! Thank you K. Jubbal!! Made my day
Love the top gear/grand tour Jeremy Clarkson reference. I loved that episode (I think it was grand tour not top gear at that point right?)
Check out our other channel @jubbalandcars if you enjoy automotive content!

“APGAR scores as a new born” lord that got me! 😂
Now can we get a video on Aerospace Medicine?
In college and doing my prerequisite rn tho I "caN't wAiT tO dO rOcKeT sUrGeRY !!! ". Happy April fools 😂
Bruh. dying the entire time 🤣
My father was a world renowned Rocket Surgeon, but retired because the career "wasn't mentally stimulating enough".

Medical oncology would be good for this series!
I'd become a rocket surgeon if it weren't for my fear of heights. I qualify in every other way.
It’s April fools day 😂😂😂
A perfect April's fool 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😂
YES the long wait for this video is worth it
Lmaoooooo, you got me for the first couple of minutes hahah!
Finally! I don't get why nobody else is talking about this glorious profession.
props to this animator tho
Why did I watch this 😭😭😭
“Work life balance can be difficult. Not for rocket surgeons, but for their families.”
Lmao the 420000-690000 $ compensation
No way, I was so confused the whole time… and then I come to the comments. Man, it sounded interesting…
Do they do interventional procedures too? I wonder if submarine neuro-interventional marine radiation oncopharmacologists would start to take over some of the procedures they do
Very astute observation Saif. Only time will tell how scope issues play out
Well…this was unexpected, but beautifully informative nonetheless
When Jean-Claude Van Damme did the splits between two moving semis, a rocket surgeon was driving both trucks at the same time.
When he said "Jeremy Clakrson" I was like "Wait a sec ?!!"
Please make a video on transplant surgeon
I died when you said apgar scores were considered when applying lol

is there an outtakes or a blooper reel for this video? it is sure to be comedic gold
Underrated video
