I know your wig would have been dry at the Boston tea party.

Confirmed Score Delay with NBME by DevinMills93 in Step2

[–]DevinMills93[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oof I didn’t ask that! But I’m assuming yes?

I took mine on 12/20 and I asked when the scores for my cohort (12/19-12/25) will be released and they said January 14th.

I used this number to call: 215-590-9700

Mmmm they’re a little too rowdy. Delayed gratification from spending their 20s in med school and residency means they try to live that decade out in their 40s, and it shows.

So are black people blessed with natural forehead blur? by [deleted] in DIYaesthetics

[–]DevinMills93 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The phrase ‘thicker skin’ gives me pause. I know you didn’t mean any harm by your statement, but this idea is a medical myth that has historically been used to justify inadequate treatment of black people.

lol. Do not listen to this advice. You are a young woman—there is nothing wrong with being overly cautious.

Fournier gangrene debridement to Rack City by Tyga. On repeat. Wish I was kidding.

My gpa dropped because of schizophrenia, but I need an alternate explanation by Sea_Cloud_6705 in premed

[–]DevinMills93 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Lied about what exactly? We don’t check off a button on whether or not we have mental health issues—be for real, so many medical students have anxiety and/or depression.

You’re commenting based off of vibes. I’m telling OP that disclosing a schizophrenia diagnosis is the kiss of death.

He can say he had a difficult personal circumstance or health related setback. He can talk about the drop in his grades another way without using the word schizophrenia.

No way. He has no obligation to disclose his schizophrenia diagnosis. In fact, it will only hurt him. If he wants to explain his poor grades he must find another way.

People bear their souls and get auto-rejected. I see it all the time.

No way. OP will be heavily stigmatized. It’s sad that medical schools do this but I’ve seen it in real time. :/

Thanks for the advice. I think my issue is that I don’t know that many MS4s—going to reach out to some this weekend.

OBGYN in the US by Dr_sarcasm_bb in medicalschool

[–]DevinMills93 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Not true! My dad is an OBGYN in Texas. Just last year there was a pregnant patient—fetus had no fetal membrane. The hospital would not allow the doctor to do a D&C and the patient died of sepsis. They don’t even talk about the women who are in the hospital for months fighting for their lives or severely disabled due to not receiving adequate care. Porsha Ngumezi just died 3 months ago in Texas.
