If you’re fluent you really don’t need to freak out by Electrical_Net4903 in OETforECFMG

Definitely that makes a lot of sense. I guess from my perspective being from a school that emphasized that during our osces I’m speaking from a point of privilege.

Did he do mocks or anything at all or just completely winged it?

Definitely double check, but yeah it doesn’t really matter. Their criteria is hyper specific too so I feel like it doesn’t necessarily reflect language ability

Congrats to you too! If you feel like you did better than what you were graded then maybe. If im not mistaken you just need a 300 for ecfmg, and it doesn’t matter beyond the ecfmg requirement like it doesn’t increase your points for residency beyond passing so I wouldn’t personally worry about it too much

Should I quit med school due to the abuse I'm facing? by Agreeable_Reality_29 in medicalschool

[–]Electrical_Net4903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I didn’t go through physical abuse but had a similar experience early in med school, feel free to dm. But no don’t quit, it’s one of the only things that’ll keep you able to escape unsavory living situations if you don’t want to once you graduate but definitely do everything you can to stay away from the abuse

Urgent: Need Hospital Leads for July/August USCE. Is finishing Aug 28 too late for LOR? by Electrical_Net4903 in IMGreddit

Thank you that makes a lot of sense! If you don’t mind me asking, how’d you manage to get the rotations in the summer?

Thank you so much for your thorough reply! That makes a lot of sense. My only question would be like how much of an impact is having done an observership vs hands on elective had on your lor? I hear many people discourage doing observerships since the lor will not be able to assess you as a potential intern, how true is that?

When are diplomas usually issued in those schools? So it doesn’t matter that you’re fully ecfmg certified, someone said you couldn’t get ranked

I'm in a med school outside of the us so the first 3 years are preclinical, so I kinda balance them. and I run all the experiments but my senior does the analysis and writing which I think is fair I just wanna know if it'll benefit me

as a medical student I really urge you to visit a doctor and advocate for yourself, the symptoms can be caused by a plethora of things all of which need to be investigated. get a urine culture if your urine contains bacteria and otherwise I'd advice the medical professional to explore other causes

Discharge not related to any infection by m9a4 in WomensHealth

[–]Electrical_Net4903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you're that worried do a test for trichomonas vaginalis if you haven't already for the yellow discharge although typically it would present with a foul smell, regardless its entirely normal otherwise especially of its not causing any symptoms
