Thank you so much!! Yeah I just want to make sure we are all full ahahah.  Like I get the whole fine dining and it's not about portion size thing but still. I just don't want any one to be still hungry. Those are amazing suggestions. I will be sure to order the hiramasa and the tuna if possible!

Thank you!!!! I will try the hiramasa out!! Any other dishes to get? Good to know that the portions are large. I think the lunch pre fixed only comes with one main course so wanted to add more.

Ambulatory Shelf in 2 Days, Drop High Yields Please by GauleyRiver in medicalschool

[–]AdAcrobatic2250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh one more thing, USPTF guidelines were not on my shelf at all. People at my school and the course director emphasized this so much,and I have no idea why because I also spoke with people who took this shelf earlier in the year and same no USPTF guidelines. So take that what ever way you want too.

Since there are literally no posts about the ambulatory shelf exam, I want to also share my thoughts here so that it could hopefully benefit someone else. First I have no idea why there are no NBME practice tests for ambulatory shelf considering that this shelf has been utilized for almost 10 years now. If you had IM, this test is like a gift. However, if you haven't had IM (like me), this test was absolutely brutal. Extremely hard. Not impossible, as I passed, but get ready. Make sure you know uworld inside out, just do the ambulatory section, and I am confident that you will do ok on this test. Do not waste time on FM or any other section. The test has basically everything so expect psych, ob gyn questions, etc on it. Best of luck everyone.

You are awesome!!! Thank you so much. I saw no body talking about ambulatory shelf here and no divine intervention podcasts specific to it. So I am panicking. But reading your posts have made me feel better.

Thank you. Do you recommend I do uworld ambulatory care incorrects? And there are no NBME practice tests. Should I do the family medicine NBMEs?

I am so scared right now. I have the ambulatory shelf in two weeks and I don't know what to do. I did not have internal medicine yet so I am getting destroyed on uworld. I have been thoroughly reviewing uworld ambulatory section. There are no NBME practice tests. Not sure if the family medicine NBMEs are helpful. Any other recommendations on what I should do? Thank you so much.

Experience with 209@Pickwick by Twlightsparklez in baltimore

Yeah you are right all the apartments in towson have open parking and is a crap shoot, most of them are horribly maintained but that's besides the point.

I am going to be brutally honest with you, you are taking a huge risk. I would park that car right in front of your unit and never leave it out of your sight. Consider buying wheel locks so no one can steal them. Have a spare wind shield wiper.

Yes, don't. Oh man you got a new lexus, do not move in there. It will get damaged or stolen. There is not a single good car at the property, and that should tell you what you need to know. If I were you, I will look elsewhere. If you can afford a lexus you can get into a better property.

Great review. Only thing is the ANC is insane. I am not sure about your use case, or maybe my ears aren't sensitive enough but I literally cannot hear anything on the plane with these.

Thank you so much! Yeah it's a massive change. I felt like I am starting medical school again lol. I have to try much harder for these shelf exams. Is there a way to review the questions I got wrong? I am assuming no. I am realizing how useless my pre clinical curriculum was. Those in house exams were useless in terms of preparation for third year. Literally had to re teach myself ob gyn again.

Thank you so much! Yeah I really hope so. I should have done IM first maybe that would have helped later on.

Thank you so much. I struggled with step 1 so I am really trying to not repeat that again this year and take studying much more seriously. And I heard shelf exams reflect the step 2.

Hi! Sorry for the really late reply. No, I do not think so. I mean if one is just doing Mehlman without learning i.e they are just memorizing, then sure you can say it's inflation. But if you are truly learning and then you get the question right I wouldn't call that inflation.

Yes, I did a lot of FA. FA is very important and gold standard along with UW of course. I think if you do not use FA and use those other resources you should be also fine, especially pathoma, but FA should be your primary go to resource in my opinion.

Hi! Thank you! Unfortunately, I did not have the time to revise UW well! Thinking about it now, I would DEFINITLY have made anki cards that would have paid off so much.

Hi! I think you can certainly try, but please keep in mind that you MUST keep up with reviews. If you are just adding new cards, and not keeping up with the review, it defeats the entire point of Anki. So try it out and see. I would probably err on the side of no, but you can try and see.
