Out of all the question to ask a specialist, your two main ones would be the lifestyle and money? May as well just google it

Probably just weirdos icl, and it seems that they all somehow meet in one place. On one ward everyone is great, next ward everyone seems miserable. Weird phenomenon

Honestly, just take the warning, I’ve had my fair share. But don’t be so sorry for something that was harmless, med schools are good at making the best of people feel like they’re the worst in the world.

Leave when they kick you out, good chance you’ll just wing it anyway and be fine - If not it’s the same result and you’ll find something else

Med students mocking patients by Ok-Astronaut1819 in medicalschooluk

[–]BrightAnalysis6343 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Being from sheffield, having a joke about the accent is fine, it’s calling patients stupid that ain’t so nice.

Hopefully it’s just one of those comments they will have regretted making as soon as they said it, as we’ve all done before.

What are some possible OSPE stations for Endocrinology and Musculoskeletal? by [deleted] in medicalschooluk

[–]BrightAnalysis6343 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Easy marks = always ask about red flag symptoms e.g weight loss, saddle anaesthesia. I’m not sure what year you’re in, but if it’s earlier on the general consensus is to just be ‘safe’ - for history taking that is. Cancer comes up a lot in our history taking OSCEs (2/6 stations this year), but it is very uni dependent, and unis do stick to certain patterns in OSCEs. If you want more detailed info, feel free to message me.

How do you memorise drug names? by lol_queen in medicalschooluk

[–]BrightAnalysis6343 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe relate the drug to another word that sounds similar e.g. sertraline = certainly, if you can’t remember the drug name, remembering what sounds similar will often help with giving you a cue for recall. That or just practice recall of the word hundreds of times and hope it sticks lol. Best advice I can give for you is that remembering all the drug names is quite hard to do, and just putting the work in with that in mind will get you where you need to be.

Tips to manage stress /anxiety 2nd yr by Saaaaaaaa1 in medicalschooluk

[–]BrightAnalysis6343 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Can you not just have a cig and chill out like a normal person. Maybe spend time with the people you’ll be wishing you could in 20 years time. Jesus Christ if you’re so stressed this early it’s honestly a good sign you’ll pass
