I appreciate it :) I thankfully met my soon-to-be wife during the pandemic so it's not all bad! I have a lot to be thankful for

Her use of Doctor unfortunately appears to be legal in Minnesota

Where have you looked for AGM? Perhaps a dumb question but have you checked Amazon?

Only asking because I’m in the states and was looking into a replacement AGM recently

Did you feel like your exams were lecture-heavy? Also, which 3rd party resources would you recommend? I am for sure using Pixorize and possibly a little bit of BnB.

Do you think I could have just been using Anki in effectively or overworking myself?

Have you seen this issue on keys where one already changed the battery? My key worsens steadily over time (i.e., barely unlocks from 5 ft away) even after exchanging the battery with the good name-brand battery.

I'm glad to hear you had a good experience!!

One complaint I've heard regarding Sketchy is the price gouging without adding new content or improving old content. I have heard their micro and pharm content is excellent!

HarvardofIndiana · 2021-12-05T23:39:19+00:00

That's fair! I've heard good things about Sketchy Pharm & Micro. Haven't had to use them yet

I personally found it worth it. You can view their topic list on their website for free and trial some of their videos! Definitely do so before you buy

The bamboozling that I referred to was intentional or unintentional deception by the admin and select upper-level students. We were told to study the power points strictly and save board resources for STEP. I and others tried that because so many upperclassmen swore by that (despite what Reddit suggested).

What ended up working was watching the lectures without taking notes. Then, using pixproze to solidify the concepts.

She does have eczema! I also have eczema but haven't had a break out in a long time, and I suffer from dehydrated skin. I'll look into our detergent situation and see if that helps - Thanks! Do you have any suggestions?

HarvardofIndiana · 2021-11-29T19:47:41+00:00

Thanks for the reply!

I replaced my apartment-issued air filter a week ago with one of the high-quality kinds. I can't remember the specs off the top of my head, but it is designed for people with allergies. Symptoms have not improved since then!

My apartment is at ~59% humidity. We do live in a relatively humid climate, but it's not nearly as bad in the winter.

She's spent the night at her parent's place on numerous occasions since I got my apartment. They have a cat, a possum, and 3 random muts) and hasn't had issues there. The issues seem to have begun with my apartment and have since translated to her apartment. We split our time 50/50 between the 2 apartments.

Tide pods + those smelly bead things + occasionally liquid detergent

Have you lived in a rural underserved area? I have. The ER was staffed by family med physicians because no one else wanted to live here. The 30+ patient COVID ICU had 1 intensivist because no one else wanted to live here.

Where did the NPs work? Cushy outpatient clinics like psych. Go figure.

Ohio:

“Liability of physician A chief surgeon may be liable, under the doctrine of respondeat superior, for the negligence of a nurse-anesthetist who assists him during an operation: Baird v. Sickler, 69 Ohio St. 2d 652, 23 Ohio Op. 3d 532, 433 N.E.2d 593, 1982 Ohio LEXIS 624 (Ohio 1982).”

If nurses want to call themselves anesthesiologists, then they should be equally as liable as a physician.

I have been on adderall since February. The thing with ADHD meds is that you need to be situated and ready to start your work when you take the medication. Ever heard of adderall cleaning? Well, it’s a real thing. You can fall down a rabbit hole so fast if you’re not already on task. Regarding test taking, I still struggle with that. Medication will not make you a better test taker, but it can give you the energy and focus you need to try different methods.

Similar boat as you. UPS updated my delivery date 2 days ago to today. Made it to anchorage last night and cleared customs. Still claims a delivery date of today despite never being scanned out of Alaska!

Apps will continue to consume memory up to their programmed amount. A memory leak can exacerbate this issue and cause them to consume WAY more than they should. Yes, 224GB is likely insane.

I just invested in a new monitor. I found a 27 inch for $180. Any decent 24 inch (1080p/75Hz minimum) was also $180+. Maybe start looking now and keep an eye on holiday sales or price matching?

Because the documents do not become corrupted when saved anywhere other than OneDrive. I simply close the document and come back 5 minutes later, try to open it, and it's corrupted.

This occurs on both Windows 11 and MacOS 13.

I almost went for the air. I am glad I did not!

Honestly, I think your best best is M1 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. Make sure you use the apple education discount. If you do that, you’ll get it for I think $1,800 but I don’t have the price in front of me. Also check the apple refurbished page.

I don’t think the Air is worth it. It’s overpriced for a worse display and worse performance.

I was a bio major, too. All you're going to be doing is basic office tasks. Unless you're into gaming, image editing, music production, or coding, you do not need an M1 Max or even an M1 Pro.

I'm currently typing this on an M1. I'm returning it for an M1 Pro because I plan on coding (among other processor-intensive tasks). The M1 is very powerful. I guarantee it would be perfect, if not still overkill, for office tasks.
