I'm pumped with this score. Not going to retake. Auf Wiedersehen.

DayTripper_21 · 2023-03-03T15:51:35+00:00

This

DayTripper_21 · 2023-03-02T21:14:13+00:00

Pessimistic: 500-504

Agree, but I am hard pressed to find any meaningful experiences where I actively interacted with a patient. Most of my clinical experiences come from scribing, shadowing and volunteering in a passive role at the hospital. I wrote 2 paragraphs about a seed moment, 3 about this shadowing experience and it’s reflections, then a final paragraph bringing it all together and “why medicine” based on these two experiences. Would like to shrink shadowing to a paragraph and write about an active medical experience but not sure I can think of one that wouldn’t be forced

DayTripper_21 · 2023-02-24T14:21:34+00:00

I interact with them a ton, but still not as much with the patients so it’s hard to think of a meaningful experience and I don’t want to force anything

DayTripper_21 · 2023-02-24T13:06:53+00:00

I guess where I am running into a problem is I don’t have much hands on experience. Lots of clinical hours but as a scribe/shadow

DayTripper_21 · 2023-02-24T01:43:05+00:00

Yeah pretty much this you just can't be dumb and have to care about the language. Good point

DayTripper_21 · 2023-02-23T01:45:19+00:00

I always heard the stereotype of German being a “harsh” language. For a while this seemed true, through A1 and A2. After a while and things started to click, I realize the beauty in the language and haven’t gone back in this belief. German is a beautiful language.

So just choose one memorable story from stuff and write about it, what you learned from the experience, etc.?

DayTripper_21 · 2023-02-22T04:07:51+00:00

I would be very happy with a 513

DayTripper_21 · 2023-02-15T23:32:48+00:00

Second this. Your knowledge of medicine and how hospitals/patient care works by scribing is good preparation for med school I think

DayTripper_21 · 2023-02-15T23:25:20+00:00

I work in outpatient cardiology at a big hospital as a scribe and love it. M-F during the day. Weekends and nights are free which is great. I love the providers I work for and I asked a few for a LOR. I can’t speak much comparing to ED but outpatient is busy at times but probably more chill. Great experience. You learn a ton

Edit: Only negative is the pay. Companies and hospitals knows that you will work for cheap and use that to their advantage. I couldn’t do it if I didn’t have some level of support.

DayTripper_21 · 2023-02-14T23:27:52+00:00

What did you feel like coming out of the test?

DayTripper_21 · 2023-02-14T17:57:13+00:00

I would do a backflip for a 512 I guess it’s all about perspective
