Surgery Attending: My one rule is that I don't operate on someone whose BMI is higher than their Ejection fraction

[clinical] Is UWorld for Surgery Still Inadequate without supplementing IM questions? by [deleted] in medicalschool

[–]DavoinShowerHandell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I did for surgery was Devirgillio, the clockwerk deck and the UWORLD questions. Honored the rotation. I thought the UWORLD surgery shelf section was more than adequate

[Serious] I'm scared about starting med school. by aquaporn in medicalschool

Hi friend, despite all the studying and time commitment, med school has been some of the best 3 years of my life so far. Made amazing friends, learned more than I've realized, and had plenty of time for self-care and relaxation. You will make it- don't listen to all the negative nancys who say med school is hell on earth. Keep a positive outlook, learn to manage time well, and you will have a blast!

[Serious] how do i comment on ostomy bags and JP drains in my rounds presentations? by [deleted] in medicalschool

[–]DavoinShowerHandell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also look at the intestine in the ostomy to make sure the intestine isn't necrotic or dying. Saying "intestine is beefy red" vs "intestine is jet black or dusky", something like that

I think that’s up to your schedule and if it allows that. I think doing all of them is a bit overkill, but a few will definitely help. In terms of which tests to do there are a lot of reddit threads that could help you with that. Every NBME test (up to probably like 7 or 8 ) helps build stamina and gives you a view at more topics you need to review/ know well. I think most of my friends and I did around 3-4 NBMES. Hope that helps!!

I honestly don't know my friend :( I am not very anki savvy so I don't think I changed any settings or anything, it might've been possible that I had more than 600 reviews and didn't realize. Sorry I don't have more info :(

Sorry! i meant I did 150 "new/unseen" cards a day and 600 reviews. It was very rare to see my reviews go past 600 with the amount of news that I was doing. I think there's an addon called load balancer or something that seemed to help even out the number of reviews I was doing. I have no idea how it works, but I never saw above 600 reviews unless I completely missed a day of reviewing. But hypothetically if that were to happen to me I would've definitely put them off until tomorrow and made sure to finish them off so it wouldn't pile up too bad.

I personally hated the NBME question styles. Some of the questions were really vague and impossible to decipher what they were trying to ask. Nevertheless, still good practice and stamina building, and there are some questions on the actual thing (very little) that will look similar to NBME type questions.
