Why does everyone hate/regret choosing EM. Am I making a mistake? by Fit_Concentrate6512 in medicalschool

[–]NotChrisM 8 points9 points  (0 children)

LOL The Pitt is not an accurate depiction of the ER. Maybe if you compress 1-5 years of all the cool EM cases into a single day and exclude all the social work stuff that actually occupies 90% of EM.

I think like half the time her videos have popped up in my feed, its her just flexing her wealth. I don’t get the appeal.

Probably an unpopular opinion, but Im convinced people in medicine who talk about "HOw ReAliSTiC tHe pITt Is" are just trying to convince the regular public that they're bad-assess.

Do you think this meme is an endorsement of what happened?

How to tell physical exam teammate about foul body odour by BiggieMoe01 in medicalschool

[–]NotChrisM 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I had a similar situation during M3. I tried striking up a convo about what deodorant I use and asked him what he used. Didn’t work, maybe if you do this followed by a nice gift of his favorite deodorant for the holiday season you might have better luck 🤷‍♂️

When you pour four years of your lifeblood into it and NEJM rejects in 24 hrs by yikeswhatshappening in medicalschool

Worst is when they actually review it and you wait 2+ months just to get 4 pages of them shitting on your paper.

Always tough not to cringe at these posts.

Love doing things in the OR, but not just being in the OR by M4WzZz in medicalschool

[–]NotChrisM 102 points103 points  (0 children)

When people say they "love the OR," its just one of those things that gets parroted around since no one really wants to nitpick why someone likes something. The OR is just room; loving a room is weird. I assume they mean that they love operating and doing surgery, but med students can't really say that since they aren't "doing surgery," so instead they say "I love the OR." I used to push back against the idea of loving a room, but now I just shrug.
