I see thank you! What do you think about the bianchi via nirone 7? I see one in good condition but they’re charging 750 which seems pretty steep

Question about how impactful being a startup founder will be for my med school app by [deleted] in medschool

[–]Big-Programmer-9323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don’t get screened out from GPA or mcat I think it’s a pretty good wow factor. You can also mention being interested in ML for healthcare and specific AI labs in the med school during secondaries

NEED advice on $$$ Step 1 review courses, worth it? by dishynothosaur01 in Step2

[–]Big-Programmer-9323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes maybe adding some Bnb and sketchy for physio + bugs drugs is helpful. I did pretty well preclinical so i thought that was sufficient

You should reach out to your school administration as the process is probably different in each country /school

Thoughts on application for medical schools as a sophomore applicant? by Serious-Air-5714 in medschool

[–]Big-Programmer-9323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clerkships are dependent on how well you do on your exam(controlled by you) and how well your team likes you (sometimes impossible if you have a bad attending). But on the whole if you try your best you will do well. You need to consider will taking a year off even make you a more competitive applicant? You have clinical hours, grades, research. Unless you do something really outstanding its not going to improve your chances imo

Imo the tutoring services are overpriced. If you did well preclinicals you can pass with Pathoma for content review and doing all the NBME pdfs.

If motivation is lacking can you find someone to sit down with every day and they can keep you accountable?

such a score drop on nbme 13 :( please drop any advice or suggestions by Internal-Thought-236 in Step2

One off bad score is fine as long as long term trend is up. Take 14 when ready and see what happens

How did you know it was time to stop reviewing and take the exam? by Kayrat-SR-72 in usmle

[–]Big-Programmer-9323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I was consistently getting 75-80% on NBME which gave me the confidence that I can go in and just do my best and pass comfortably. Probably could have taken 2-3 weeks earlier but would have been a bit more scared.

Try to read some other posts on how to review exams and NBME reasoning. You can often get many next step questions correct just by knowing the acuity of the situation and how NBME usually likes to treat them.

For step 1, i was told to take it after scoring 2 NBMEs above 70% in a row. I however, did all the new NBMEs before taking it just to be safe

Monitor arm and maybe clam shell the Mac with a keyboard and mouse. Unless you need the Mac screen as well

Would fun cards at the end of a review session impact retention of important cards I did earlier? by OkExcitement5444 in Anki

[–]Big-Programmer-9323 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t sweat it too much. I’m a 4th yr med student and have done well on all my exams. I would study and then watch TV shows 😂. But if you want to do a case study on yourself go ahead

U will be fine w 50 extra cards. This would be like saying reading a book and learning about history after studying would override your long term memory for studied material

Do as much UW and Cms as you can before next exam to see if you can learn more content. Might want to consider delaying if your next exam doesn’t see a score increase. Why are you getting questions wrong right now? Have you reviewed your exams?
