1. You wake up at 6am on a weekend although you don't have work.
2. You feel there is something wrong if you don't have an exam coming up.
3. Can’t relax
4. Can wiz through a 500 page book in a day
5. Are expected to know everything.
6. You know the size of a RBC.
7. You are always tired.
8. Watch scrubs and laugh at yourself.
9. When you write more than a thousand words a day.
10. When you look at a person on the beach and the first thing you notice is their appendectomy scar.

21. You are always thinking about the next job.
22. Are expected to be in two places at the same time. 
23. Use the phrase "I am a doctor" to get away with something
