Jamaican Twitter celebrates with young doctors who passed final exam

Jamaicans are very warm people, despite our

differences, and the happiness was on full display Wednesday night (July 1) as

hundreds of Twitter users took the social media platform to join in the

celebration of young doctors who passed their final medical exams.

I love to see young people prosper… congrats to all the new Doctors!— Cornelius St John (@Jhambrizco_)

It doesn’t even matter what major you did at Uwi, none of them are relatively easy, the running of the institution alone including lecturers will drain ur spirit and break your energy. To complete your journey there is a big win.— Seachel (@CashMom__)

Completing their Bachelor of Medicine and

Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) degree and overjoyed at the milestone, many couldn’t

contain their excitement after years of hard work, determination, and

perseverance paid off.

For some, the flex was simple, after tweeting

their names and the title they’ve earned, Dr.

While for a few it was a moment to immortalise forever, as they posted photos falling asleep while studying, or remembering the many hours toiling non-stop to realise a dream, finally fulfilled.

While celebrating those who crossed their final hurdle, Jamaican Twitter users also had words of encouragement for those who didn’t, reminding them that the goal is still within reach, barring an unexpected delay.
