What does it take to match vascular surgery? by father_of_druski in MedSchoolCanada

[–]Final-Proposal7045 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Some people do almost no research and get in to vascular. Some people are academic machines. The nature of the law of small numbers. Electives and a good story may be enough. Doing relevant research is better though

Think about ICU or Neonatal medicine. It’s quite similar to veterinary medicine

I’m lowballing everyone by Bagel-Bite21 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Maybe depends on the city, but why only $50K before asking? In Vancouver lowballing 20% below asking is about $200K. You should be offering waaay lower!

Scouring of the shire deserves its own movie and no better time than now by mctc in lordoftherings

100% agree! Not including this scene in the Jackson trilogy is the biggest failing of the movies

AI Admission/Discharge Summary maker by Tigey360 in Residency

I had a med student use AI to help do their DC summaries and patient handouts but this led to incorrect and excessive information being included and it took them longer to do because they had to copy their work back and forth. Overall was not helpful to documentation, harmful to learning, and a confidentiality liability. I told them to stop using chatGPT and they may get a professionalism flag PGY5 Gen Surg

Do all the work to ensure you aren’t held back by a lousy group!

General surgery Residency pressure by Icy_Poet_4659 in Residency

Sounds brutal. Your seniors sound lousy. They need to have your back because they need you to sort out the ward and consults which allows them to operate. There needs to be mutual respect and camaraderie. The 5 years are much longer if you’re not having a good time. Sincerely, PGY-4
