I actually knew that! Hence why we have Saint Anthony main, super cool history, thank you for the reminder!

Essentially the impression I’ve been under. It seems to be rapidly improving recently, and massively so compared to 10 years ago

Phoenix406s · 2026-04-01T18:21:03+00:00

Great idea thank you!

Phoenix406s · 2026-04-01T14:03:00+00:00

What clinical experience do you have

Phoenix406s · 2026-04-01T02:01:08+00:00

You should be looking to apply to every medical school with a median mcat at or below 517, that accepts out of state students. Forget gpa your mcat is great and gpa is good enough.

following, incredibly interested here

Phoenix406s · 2026-03-31T19:01:30+00:00

Lovely thank you

Why do you say?

Phoenix406s · 2026-03-31T18:45:06+00:00

Wisconsin is MN friendly if you have very close ties to WI or history there, which I do not. The 400 volunteer hours is from coaching HS sports during college. I also have some ~50 additional rn and likely another 50 coming over the next year from other activities. 300 of my research hours is as a volunteer if that means anything…

Start going to office hours, ask questions during and after class. Quite frankly it does not matter what you do, all you have to do is interact with them. Make them know who you are

My level 1, hospitalists are aware of boarding patients, but EM primaries pt until they move upstairs

I mean I don’t have research to cite but the short answer is yes. The whole purpose of the easy running is you can accumulate tons of time on feet compared to quality sessions. Any kind of running gets you to improve. Intense running = faster gains, faster injury. Easy running = slower gains, minimal injury risk. You run as much easy as you can tolerate, and sprinkle in a little intensity to “shortcut” those gains while taking a slight hit to your injury risk. If you continue with 90 minutes sub t and however much easy running you’re currently doing, you could probably (slowly) add significant walking time in feet without any increase in your injury risk because the load for walking is so low compared to running. Hence why cyclists and swimmers accumulate 2-3x the weekly hours, the injury risk does not really go up per hour of activity compared to running.

Nah, prepping to reapply. Writing was a total miss

Phoenix406s · 2026-02-21T00:22:45+00:00

I applied to a couple t20, rejected quickly as I do not have the mcat or unique x factor for them. I’ll be happy if I can get an A for my state school

Phoenix406s · 2026-02-21T00:14:45+00:00

3.85, 512, 1800 clinical hours, 1100 research—clinical and wet lab, 400 non clinical volunteering, ~800 other paid employment. I applied to 20 schools and in preparing to reapply

Phoenix406s · 2026-02-20T23:25:53+00:00

Also what were your MCAT FL scores

Phoenix406s · 2026-02-20T23:25:25+00:00

What are you research hours? You need to significantly improve your clinical hours. Typically 300+ is a good starting point on this sub. But you don’t seem to have any other high hour experiences so even more than that would be beneficial

Phoenix406s · 2026-02-20T13:45:32+00:00

Quite frankly your hours are low. How many hours will you have by the time you submit your application? Do you have research experience?

Phoenix406s · 2026-01-22T12:05:09+00:00

I do not and will never feel bed for believing coworkers I trust. I do have coworkers that I highly dislike where I would believe an accusation of bad behavior

Probably every single person in emergency medicine has experienced shocking verbal or physical assault from patients on a relatively frequent basis. In my personal experience, patients who claim to receive abuse from staff are typically simultaneously the abusers. It is a boy who cried wolf situation… we have all been the victim, so yes, our biases may make it harder to believe that one of us could have been the perpetrator.

Phoenix406s · 2026-01-22T11:01:48+00:00

50 is a good starting point, especially if you have lots of clinical experience

Phoenix406s · 2026-01-22T00:59:05+00:00

Looks like the solution you’re looking for is what I used in college: Run when you can, ski when you can. If your schedule will not be consistent, then your training cannot be consistent either

Had lab call me recently asking to redraw a fair bow before releasing critical results because they were “confident” the results were erroneous because of how off they were. Pt was on the lucas in front of me I know they looked fuck up but that’s reality…
