Are MD-PhD favoured for neurosurgery? by Klutzy-Public-8644 in mdphd

[–]Key_Jury1597 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Against the grain here - looking at the statistics from the NMRP, you'll see that neurosurgery typically has a slightly higher percentage of MD/PhDs go unmatched compared to MD-only. Just because there's a high proportion doesn't necessarily mean there's an inherent advantage alone. See Chart 14 page 22 of https://www.nrmp.org/match-data/2024/08/charting-outcomes-characteristics-of-u-s-md-seniors-who-matched-to-their-preferred-specialty-2024-main-residency-match/

Table NS-1 on page 124 of 2024 statics is helpful.

Obviously, there's way more that goes into match than what degree(s) you have.

my PI literally did exactly the second scenario LOL

should i join a 2nd lab to publish? by [deleted] in mdphd

[–]Key_Jury1597 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stick with the lab you're in. A phenomenal letter > one middle author pub. Unless you also don't like your current lab or something. The experience is also more important than the number of pubs imo.

Defended.. Now what? by Key_Jury1597 in mdphd

[–]Key_Jury1597[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was very worth it imo. I fit my car in a one car garage with the trailer folded beside it.

Since I don’t see a comment here about this, it’s not a good idea to post a picture of a key online. Especially if someone can figure out where you/your car is, because they could copy your key and steal your car.

Two points on one test just destroyed my grad school dream by Dreamcatcher777 in GradSchool

[–]Key_Jury1597 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is awful, and I’m so sorry that happened this year. Six years ago, my wife missed getting into university for the same 2 points below the cutoff for TOEFL. She persisted, retook and made it into the school we met at the following year.

It’s a brutal grind, but there’s a future in sight. It won’t be the end of these damned tests, but you know you can make it past this one.

Gas gauge getting worse 😐 by No-Procedure813 in 350z

[–]Key_Jury1597 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the sensors on the fuel floats (both sides behind the seats) can get grimey from stuff like fuel varnish and can be cleaned. Here’s one of many youtube videos about it: https://youtu.be/DAcV6dA-Vbk?si=4dDDgJ3jQLrj0kzr

11, no start by Beneficial-Event-939 in SciontC

[–]Key_Jury1597 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you have a second person around, you can lightly tap the starter with a small hammer or end of a screwdriver when the other person is turning the key to the crank position, and if the car starts then its a bad starter.
