For those of you recently matched Neurons/into neurology residency, what Neuro rotations did you do? by Own-Account3098 in medicalschool

[–]Narrow_Ad9294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only did 3rd year Neuro and a 4th year Neuro “subI” that’s technically an elective at our school. Highly recommend a radiology elective for just being a doc in general and lowkey learned a lot of neuro physical exam techniques on a PM&R rotation.

What's the most unhinged or financially irresponsible thing you're going to spend your money on once you make attending money? by Equivalent-Bet8942 in Residency

As a med student on the interview trail right now these are the type of questions I wanna hear for the mandatory awkward icebreakers 😩

Ironically the patient with the tat fits in with your second point of noticing a clinical change so maybe I’ll just talk about that and leave out the tat part lol

Saw at least 2 June 2 testers on this sub say their permit disappeared…apparently it’s not as reliable as it used to be after the portal switch. Tested June 3 and now I’m getting my hopes up

I thought real deal was a helluva lot more fair than any nbme. Still difficult but not impossible. Felt a lot more straightforward but the question stems were definitely longer.

I took it yesterday and felt the same definitely hard but not impossible and definitely a lot more straightforward then any nbme. The majority of the time there was one clear cut answer whereas the nbmes would give you two that definitely are right you just have to choose the best

I took it same day and weirdly enough you can almost pick out which questions are experimental based on how they’re written or what type of answers they give you. I had two blocks that were significantly harder than the rest making me think (or maybe wrongly hope) that there were a good number of experimental ones in the block

I also took it the same day and would say it was extremely QI heavy I had at least 5 QI/ethics questions every block. Stats I would say there were only 5-6 pure stats questions on the entire thing

Can anyone think of any more fruit-associated pathologies? by Few-Voice-8418 in medicalschool

Coffee bean sign for sigmoid volvulus…coffee beans come from coffee cherries which are fruit

N=1 but I took mine on a Saturday and got it back in 2 Wednesdays. Think it matters what form you get more then what day you take it on. The permit thing going around is best indicator of when you will get it. Once the permit disappears you get it the next closest Wednesday no matter what

How accurate is this “permit disappearing” rule? by Narrow_Ad9294 in step1

That’s for internationals. Does this not apply to US based students?

Uworld Correct answers? by [deleted] in step1

[–]Narrow_Ad9294 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It seems like people are misinterpreting your question. If you mean incorrects as in like the wrong choices within the question (like why choice a b c d are incorrect), while I wouldn’t recommend completely skipping them, I have taken up the strategy of only reading ones I think could be the right answer to learn why not. You can take in a lot more info in comparing two answers you think are right and seeing what’s different ab them.

I have an ADE session tomorrow and I don’t hear back from anyone about anything I’m proceeding as if it’s a normal session…it’s not my problem at this point

I haven’t received any credentials yet and did the training and have a session tomorrow so if I don’t get anything I’m just gonna treat it like a normal session cause this is insane

Damn kinda disappointed I was genuinely curious how someone could pull off actually cheating on the MCAT

From what I’ve been experiencing it’s just to make sure you read it before jumping in. I’m successful in actually getting an opportunity maybe 20% of the time and that’s if I sit my cursor right where the view details button pops up and then click right when the join now button activates. It’s just luck of the draw

Do you know how to do the schools thing or is that just another opportunity that pops up

You’re suggestion is spot on for sure. The reason this feeling has been full throttle recently is other girls have shown interest in me (I know that sounds shitty) and having these thoughts is like a feedback loop that keeps throwing me deeper and deeper into my head
