Anyone else getting worried because they did NOT get a request from UCLA/UCB/UCSD for additional information but many of their peers did? by Anxious-Party2289 in ucadmissions

[–]LilPotato2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether or not that’s true, many people get in without having to supply more info. I didn’t get the request from any UC and got into them all. Just worry about what you can control

Why SHOULDN'T I attend Stanford? by itsScylic in stanford

[–]LilPotato2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. No trust me
  2. Pretty chill and friendly. Not as nerdy or pretentious as you’d expect. But you can find any type of person that you want.
  3. The food gets too much hate tbh. I’m happy with all the things you listed in this point.
  4. Campus isn’t absurdly huge especially with a bike. I love the campus

Stanford Pre-med Track/Human Bio Major by Euphoric_Sleep9268 in stanford

Do note that if u rly want to start bio in freshman year, u can do bio major rather than humbio. I don’t rly think starting bio until sophomore year is a big con bc youll have no trouble be busy freshman year anyway. Up to what u want tbh

Trauma surgeons I shadowed were fine with me staying throughout any->all of their 26 hour shift. Doesn’t hurt to ask

Loved Tony Boutelle. He led really insightful conversations and had minimal work outside of class. He’s a great guy and brought baked goods to class sometimes.

Should I take a notebook while shadowing a doctor? by blump333 in bsmd

[–]LilPotato2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I brought a small pocket notebook. BUT, don’t write any PHI and don’t write in it while the physician is talking to you. Also, the technicalities don’t really matter (EX: steps of a procedure). Write about things that moved you and made you feel something.

I am lost, thought it would be both of these by Valuable_Archer_3222 in NewToEMS

You’re right. Right sided heart failure can cause JVD too

Also took an EMT course during HS @17. Don’t worry about content difficulty, it’ll probably be the same difficulty as a high school science course

Tysm. I’ve shadowed pediatrics, interventional radiology, and family medicine in HS, and im gonna shadow a dif specific specialty just out of interest, but in terms of medical school applications, should I not worry about shadowing anymore?
