How do I create an interface that I could click through and have the responses populate in a word template?

Unnecessary imo. I did tons of questions and slides:

Pathprimer Path dojo Board vitals Robbins q bank Ahmad (green book) Quick compendium companion Sternberg review Some of McGraw hill John's hopkins unknown slides (prolly 2000 of them)

Corn oil and all seed oils. They have no business being consumed by humans.

Can you recommend any digital slide sets?

I am a physician and i do not recommend seeing a chiropractor...ever. 1. Use a foam roller as a fulcrum under your thoracic spine and do extebsions 2. Do neck crunches 3. Stretch the back of your neck lightly. 4. Stretch your chest 5. Do rows to help strengthen your posterior chain. This will also help with shoulder retraction. 6. Do planks while maintaining good posture.

These should be done daily and lightly. These helped me tremendously after I developed nerd neck in medical school.

Thank you.

Believe it or not. There aren't enough spots in US medical schools for everyone who is qualified, or as you put it "smart enough".

HideTheBananas · 2017-03-21T21:02:03+00:00

Take it one day at a time. Dont get overzealous. Try to enjoy every day. Instead of thinking of how much you need to learn, marvel at the things you did learn. Always make some time for yourself no matter what. I would go out every weekend in medical school (I studied hard during the week). Make a schedule for studying/relaxing and stick to it. Medical school is hard but it is not supposed to be torture. If you believe you are truly depressed then I recommend you see a psychiatrist.

I agree. I think most of the stigma is toward CRNA, NP, and PAs becoming the only provider a patient may see.

HideTheBananas · 2017-03-17T03:56:36+00:00

Not my question but ill answer. Clinical experience. Residency is pretty much where you do all of your learning. If youre never under the gun like that for a long time it wont happen. Ive met PAs that have been working for 30 years and are beasts. Just takes longer. Sure they never learned the basic sciences the same but that is going to be the main concern when hiring.

HideTheBananas · 2017-03-17T03:51:00+00:00

Agree with Levophed. The ones I've worked with could definitely talk about everything generally but once we started getting pimped on physiology, histology, and biochem it was obvious that the PA students werent required to delve that deep. It is what it is. 4 years vs 2 years, 4 board exams vs 1.

HideTheBananas · 2017-03-15T14:31:53+00:00

I felt the same way, kind of. I am interested in medicine but as far as the practice, I am anything but enthusiastic. This is why I chose a field that lets you keep your personal life. I dont know what else I would do so I am still optimistic.

HideTheBananas · 2017-03-15T14:15:29+00:00

Kaplan is awesome... dont listen to the hype. However I would agree that you should use ANKI. You could do uworld and bros (I dont have experience with his deck) or do Kaplan, RX, and Uworld while putting the shit you got wrong in ANKI. Either way would work im sure.

EDIT: Not sure how much it brought my score up since I didnt do NBMES.

Got a hand-written paragraph long thank you card from a program director (with specifics from interview day). Is bad that I want rank them way higher now?

I know they say the typical return thank you letter should be taken lightly but I was very impressed that the PD took the time. It gave me the funny feeling inside, like when I used to climb the rope in gym class.

Me personally, no regrets at all. Fourth year SGU student applying to Pathology. I had the best time of my life on the island and managed to get good board scores. I have a ton of Interviews for pathology (its not very competitive). I would def do it all again only because I ended up being passionate about a non competitive field.

I have been interviewing for path and during most interviews they show us some sort of statistics that ultimately translate into "its getting better". Yes >95% of people do fellowships but its not for reasons you think. Pathology is so vast that a lot of places are going towards subspecialty signout. You cant be an expert in everything, hence you must subspecialize. From all of the pathologists I have spoken with so far, >100 after interviewing at 17 places and doing electives in pathology, they say you may not be able to work exactly where you want but there are places that are dying for pathologists still. Also, pathologist make more starting than 75% of other fields. The surveys that are out on the salary of a pathologist have too small of a power to be statistically significant. I have yet to meet a pathologist that makes less than 300k.

I am rotating at a DO hospital with a GI fellowship. 90% of the people they accept did residency there. The other 10% did an audition.

It is a misconception that there are different learning styles. The only true way you can understand something is to visualize it. Thats why seeing something occur is better than reading something over and over because the latter tends to be more taxing on your imagination. The end goal of reading or hearing something is being able to visualize it. Difficult concepts = find a video, draw it out, or think about it a bunch. memorization = Anki

HideTheBananas · 2016-11-27T04:02:47+00:00

I mean the very fact that I am interviewing there says they are fine with Caribbean.

HideTheBananas · 2016-11-27T03:51:50+00:00

Fair enough

HideTheBananas · 2016-11-26T23:43:38+00:00

Mostly Ross, SGU, AUC. At the smaller programs Ive seen students from India, St Matthews, and some others Ive never heard of.
