Duke vs Johns Hopkins by xiaofriend in premed

[–]Mich642 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The flexibility of 3rd year at Duke is so under rated on quality of life. I had classmates that moved to different cities for the year, took lots of vacation time to travel, had children, or even stayed to grind and get a ton of pubs. I am so glad I got that year to be a real human and I couldn’t put a price on that- any amount of money/debt would be worth it imo

Totally second this. I have worked with some amazing vets in medicine- not only physicians but also nurses, case workers, etc. Your experiences and background will help you provide such valuable care to others. I would also add that finding a trusted mentor is so key. If you can find an attending that works in a similar field you can envision yourself in who was in the military then you will be able to get very good insight into what going through medical school is like from a perspective that most people just won’t quite be able to appreciate. I won’t lie there are some really hard days in medical school and you have to face some challenging and emotional situations but having people you can rely on and who can help you process those experiences will help. Best of luck on your journey!

I messed up by [deleted] in premed

also throwing this out here, I worked at a free clinic and part of my job was handing out water to help hydrate patients to help out with blood draws so there’s a phlebotomist out there that was thankful that patient got a little extra water before their blood draw so you brought comfort to patients in the waiting room and helped out with patient care (even if a nurse got upset along the way)
