this is a typcial Singaporean way of doing things. Some treat the interns well, some give them the sink or swim approach. It is obvious you are given the sink or swim approach.
I can empathise with your challenges as my close one has been there done that. Let drill down your challenges
a. Communication
Yes, you will be drained out because you are inexperience. You feel like you are traumatized as you are put on spot to make a quick decision or suggestion. Of course everyone will be in the same position as you. But remember, you are not the only one. Others are in the same boat as well. I look at that SIT provide and I presumed you either doing Physio or OT. Honestly, you are dealing with older folks. They can be sometimes slow, stubborn or just play dumb. My mum is a classic example. It is like squeezing blood out of the stone with her. Once you see many of time, you will get immune to the challenges. They all have classic symptoms.
b. Make decisions and following decisions
If I am right what you are doing, no one will give you the decision what to do. The fear in you is, you are afraid to make the wrong decision. But honestly, after you see them all. 80% all have the same problem. So, you fear of making decision, is more of lack of experience.
c. Like or dislike
Honesly, most of us, goto study do not really like the course what we do. Some papers are like ****, some you enjoy. It comes as a package. The challenge for you is to appreciate the you just have to pass the ones that you hate and do well in the ones that you like. No one who graduate, can utilise or remember all the things you studied at Uni. If you can remember 20%, you are solid. So, dont be too harsh about yourself.
d. blame yourself
please dont. You pass Year 1 and Year 2. Then means, you can do it. No one ever do enough research on the courses they want to do. Some even research enough hated the course once they are in it.
What can you do to overcome your challenges
1. communicaiton - find out the why and the what. and see if there is how you can overcome it.
2. instant decision making process
Do the 80/20 rule. Find out what are 80% of the problems people face. Then do research what treatment are usually given. That will be enough. If you can do the 80%, the 20% most of your fellow classmates would not know either.
3. Dont blame yourself
Every end of the day, do a self evaluation. First on what you have done well and why. Then do a what you have not done well and why. Once you see a pattern why you have not done well you can polish it up on the weekend. I am pretty sure you will see a pattern.
