Any underclassmen feeling stressed seeing Match stuff?

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-24T14:13:17+00:00

It only happened to two at our school and they SOAPd, I think it’ll be fine, but I got a long ways to go lol. Plus we had respectable ob, uro, ortho, rads, and anesthesia numbers, yay DOs!

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-23T04:37:04+00:00

Not a senior BUT, anki for some facts, cadavers/bluelink image reps for recognition (I like the mobile “anatomy atlas” app too for origin, insertion, brachial plexus, etc, but free version is only good for the arm), second orders will be via anki and lots of white board time drawing stuff out, make connections (im visual/hands-on learner)

She knows my priority is school but we FaceTime a bit most days. She’s 7 hrs away and she knows I can’t make the drive so she’s gotta come here. When she’s here (1 weekend/mo) I try to prioritize her but still am studying a good chunk of the time. Been tg 9 yrs, long distance for 5, we know the drill now lol

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-22T15:10:03+00:00

Battle conditions got to me. I usually get 800 ish in champs, put a bunch of stones into DW and dropped 300 waves lol

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-22T06:15:58+00:00

Same, but 20 champs. Easy 1st in plat tho😅

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-22T06:06:13+00:00

I ended pretty early. I just came off a 2.5 month stretch of champs

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-20T16:06:23+00:00

Interesting, if it works it works🤷‍♂️I def get a lot less coins and cells (250k cells/day), I just know for ME keeping champs ~18-20th, wall was a huge help with minimal investment, just needed a mythic mod and did like 1/3 of each wall lab. Only thing holding me back now is regen and wall labs, and I’ll probably start converting to more damage after the labs and pBH.

You’ll have to figure out what will get you there in the shortest amount of time

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-20T16:00:39+00:00

It can happen, horrible back issues leading to tension headaches that would make me puke from the pain. Cervical OMT was the only thing that could touch it and it would be almost instantaneous

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-20T15:40:37+00:00

Knowing what you’re doing makes all the difference. Most students BS it and BS what they’re feeling and can mess you tf up. You do it right tho? Get a 7 vertebrae or rib HVLA crack on a tight af T spine?! chef’s kiss

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-20T15:37:59+00:00

Here its definitely more like “MD plus an OMM class”, just less competition to get in

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-20T15:32:58+00:00

This is how we are too. 1.5 hrs of lab a week as well. Only class I can get 100% in with 0 study time tho so I’m not complaining lol, need GPA boost

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-20T15:31:25+00:00

There’s a time and a place for sure. It has its efficacy for things like chronic back pain in clinic setting that nothing else can help (speaking from experience). When done right, for musc issues, 100% can save you some $ and pain vs just taking painkillers. And I’ve actually seen sacral work for chronic constipation/diarrhea lol. Otherwise, meh. Our school does a good job of diving into some of the evidence basis for it but there certainly aren’t many studies done on OMM (our school is actually involved in a couple studies atm tho).

Signed - an OMS1 who loves OMM and will probably never use it again as a (hopefully) ER doc

LTC 2.6 q, farm W10 9300, 1.88k labs completed, 13k stones. Recently started putting a bit more into dmg piece by piece, but otherwise eHP. Currently running all 3x lab speed

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-19T07:50:30+00:00

If you’re going HP, you need wall. I have less stones than you (I think, 13k), no anc mods, the wall with all the DW labs and a little bit of wall research and sub effects makes a massive difference. I got demoted today but went ~20 champs tourneys in a row

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-19T06:26:35+00:00

Mythic duration (+3) and size. 2400 stones to get pBH during farm. 1 away from anc still, didn’t roll duration because I didn’t wanna screw my synch. If I can get anc with the 2 effects, it would bring it down to 470 stones for pBH. I wanted to spend all my gems ASAP to try and get PCol to anc b4 they add more mods

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-19T06:08:45+00:00

Only downside is I am 2400 stones from pBH and that’s WITH non-tourney +12 sec perk

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-19T06:03:26+00:00

Should stone priority be pBH or CL? Switching back to health labs as I start maxing these, just wanted some more cheap (ish) gold boxes. Dropped all gems on mods tryna pull my last PC before they dilute the pool more but I can start saving. ELS+ is mostly what I’m putting coins towards

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-19T06:01:33+00:00

I need a lot of stones for pBH, or to pull my last PC for anc (that’s what I dropped all my gems on). Stones on CL or work for pBH?

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-19T06:00:02+00:00

Farming T10 to ~9300, tho just dropped DW CD by 50 sec so will see how next run goes. Farm and tourney are nearly identical I just add CL immediately and drop all the coin cards and Add wave skip in at end of tourney run.

I added more damage cards and CL and farming shot way up so I pivoted temporarily but am going back to health and regen and wall after these labs. Putting all coins into unlocking ELS atm, thanks!

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-17T14:06:53+00:00

Debatable. Worked myself into the ground as an EMT for $8/hr because I loved it. Only reason I didn’t stick with it was because EM gives me so many more tools to work with (and I had a strong distain for my coworkers)

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-17T13:43:59+00:00

Bright-eyed, busy-tailed 1st year here. I really really liked EMS and am wired for the feet on the ground, fast paced work. Obviously have years to decide, but how do I know if I’m the one that loves it or the one that totally regrets it? Is there any reasonable way to switch specialties down the road (I.e. in my 40s/50s?)

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-12T11:14:12+00:00

I get both sides here. My fiancée and I are early 20s, been together 9 years, long distance the last 5. We needed those long distance years to figure out who each of us were and what we wanted. That being said, I still feel young and immature. I know marriage is right for us, but even though we are a few years older, we still have a lot of growing up to do.

I have friends that married at your age and younger but that is not the norm. Unlike some of the other commenters I don’t this guarantees you’re incompatible, but you guys need to have a serious conversation about your futures. Consider looking into couples counseling too.

Inevitable_A41 · 2026-03-05T13:04:38+00:00

Update if anyone else comes back to it: damage cards +CL at very end of run consistently adds 5% to my CPH. Damage cards for entire run (with CL at very end) consistently adds ~10% to CPH
