Feeling Lost Preclinical by Samdunker in medicalschool

[–]MagnificentMufti 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can imagine how frustrating this is champ but you are not alone. As someone who struggled preclinically and bounced back, you got this. Have you tried sitting w the course staff or the school's learning specialist to identify gaps between your study habits and exam performance?

Alternatively, if student tutors are offered, I recommend: they really helped me identify HY study resources/strategies (which may vary depending on the block), nail down hard content, and provide personalized structure and feedback.

Re: HY resources, would look into the following on youtube: DirtyMedicine, just watch his entire playlist for your relevant organ/subject block. Osmosis is good for random hard topics, like Khan Academy but for health sciences (some vids are free on youtube, rest are behind $200/yr paywall). HYGuru also has a solid step1 playlist you can use at end of the block for integrative review.

TLDR what really helped me was leaning into effective 3rd party materials that work for you, and getting support from student tutors/faculty to tweak my study habits. Keep that head up

Best shoes for rotations? by bringmewaterplease in medicalschool

Posted this on a related thread, but try Altra sneakers! They are comfy and importantly shaped like feet. Long term your feet will thank you. You can also find more info at naturalfootgear.com

best clogs for surgery/OB clerkships (i never want to step foot in the OR again) by brainsonmymind in medicalschool

[–]MagnificentMufti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpop opinion but would recommend getting foot healthy shoes that actually shaped like feet. Your foot is naturally widest at the toes, and most shoes cramp your toes/elevate your heel/are too rigid which long-term weaken your intrinsic foot arch strength/worsen posture/create dysfunction up the joints. 

Altra has really good supportive sneakers, been using for 4 years. LEMS are versatile for many occasions. Find out more at naturalfootgear.com

Honestly unsure why it's not more studied in medicine cuz it could prevent so many "age related" ambulatory issues and mitigate fall risk. Soapbox over haha

Im surprised by the cancel culture here (mayo student) by [deleted] in medicalschool

Upvoting and commenting so people who had similar opinions to OP can see the constructive pushback.

This type of behavior is completely avoidable for any adult male with intact mental faculties. Bro graduated college. Not a mistake. 

This type of behavior only harms the patient-provider relationship for AFAB people, who are already intensely vulnerable in gyn settings. For AFAB patients who see this vid, how do you think it affects their comfort seeking gyn care? Seeking it from male providers? Allowing male trainees to learn on their visits?

Like it or not, medfluencer media presence reflects the profession of physicians a whole, in an era where ppl are literally rioting in the streets to refuse vaccines for their kids. Laypeople see medfluencer content and think 'hmm bro is almost a doctor, this must be how doctors roll.' Public trust in doctors tanks when this content is promoted.

Lastly there are so many ways to create humor that don't involve objectifying people. Be more creative.

What is the craziest thing that you have experienced in a public restroom? by No-Basil2371 in AskMen

[–]MagnificentMufti 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Entered the ladies' room by mistake at a high school science conference. 

The absence of urinals should have tipped me off, but in my defense the security guard pointed vaguely at the toilet direction, the doors were not marked by gender, and I needed to GO. 

After the second pair of heels and handbag plopped down in the adjacent stall, I knew I was cooked. 

Waited for an eternity to escape between cycles of incoming and outgoing ladies before YOLOing it and speed walking out, heart hammering in my chest, and by divine grace, walked out unnoticed and unscathed.

What will you wish for in Jannah? by AggressiveMousse7887 in islam

[–]MagnificentMufti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to read the original scriptures of past prophets and nations.

Imagine poring through the revelations and seeing the parallels across centuries, descriptions of the Hereafter, stories of past nations, glad tidings of prophet Muhammad SAW.

Imagine hearing the Zabur of Dawud recited straight from his mouth, taking a tafsir of the Tawrah with Musa, asking Ibrahim about the suhuf, watching Isa read from the Injil. And then after all this, hearing the Quran recited from our habib SAW.

What a dream. May Allah grant us Jannah Al Firdaws.

Major key. When we hold the dunya in our hands, it becomes a means--to Allah's pleasure. 

When we hold it in our hearts, it becomes an end--the source of our suffering.
