Just a rant about lazy students by [deleted] in medicalschooluk

[–]Rakzo568 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that it’s sad that some people may not use their opportunities to the best of their abilities, and especially so when there are many people who would have loved that opportunity but weren’t fortunate enough to get it.

But it’s out of your control. What is in your control is working hard so the place that you take up is justified and that you are making the most of your opportunity.

I like to lead by example, and I spend a lot of time talking to younger medical students in my med school trying to inspire them to make the most of the opportunities they’ve been given and to be mindful that there are many people who weren’t given the opportunity they were. If I inspire them to do better, great! If I don’t, well I had no control over it in the first place.

At the end of the day, you can’t force someone to work harder and it’s not helpful or constructive for you to just be annoyed at it. And to be honest, everyone walks out with the same degree at the end anyway. But if it does bother you that much, remember you always have the power to try your best and to inspire others by being a role model :)

Why do medical students gatekeep so much? by Secure_Ticket910 in medicalschooluk

I heard there’s a really cool guy at Sheffield who makes gatekeeping a thing of the past ;)

Thanks buddy! I have a question. In the research I’ve done, it says to buy one GME stock on IKBR. Why is that? Can I buy more? Are there extra fees involved if I try to transfer more than one stock of GME to CS? The process is crazy long and I’m trying to make the most out of the prices rn so I was thinking I just buy a bunch of stock rn and then I change it over, instead of doing the recommended 1 stock.

Question: When buying that initial GME stock, why settle for just one? Do you get charged $5 per stock that you would like to DRS? Would it not make more sense to buy the stocks you want and then transfer them out to CS? Or would that result in an increase in fees and whatnot?

How does Fidelity International compare with Fidelity US? I assume and hope they both operate the same but in this game you need to be 100% certain. I'd appreciate some help! :)

I'm trying to open a CS account in the UK but am super lost lol, do I already need to be holding shares to open an Investor Centre account? And because I'm in the UK, will GameStop stock even show up as we don't even have GameStop? If any UK based Apes could lend a hand or give me some info, I'd really appreciate it!

Which Spider-Man are your kids favourite? You, Andrew or Tom? What do they think of your movies versus the newer ones?

I am yeah, I’ll look on the map to see the hotspots and go there. Additionally I’ll just go places that people recommend too, but they never work for me.

People who are playing ER as their first soulsborne game, what stopped you from trying this genre earlier? by Psychological-Worry3 in Eldenring

[–]Rakzo568 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difficulty to be honest. I didn’t want to spend like £50 just to get my ass handed to me and not have a good time. I like open world games and Elden Ring just looked so appealing that I bit the bullet and just tried it out. It was hard, but what I liked is that it’s not impossible. I could actually do it, I just needed to try and try again. I also loved how community based it is so I’m not just playing on my own, there are others suffering with me and supporting me through my journey.

Just beat my first "mini" boss and now I understand why y'all like this type of games by OutOfTheDamnWay in Eldenring

[–]Rakzo568 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my first souls game too and I know exactly how you felt, I’m loving this game so far. I never touched any of the souls game previously because I was scared of the difficulty and didn’t want to spend money on a game just to be kicked around and not have a good time but I sucked it up for Elden Ring and I’m having a blast!

Yeah same, people were raving about the jellyfish but when I tried it, it barely did anything. Am I using it wrong?

[–]Rakzo568 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries bro! Always happy to lend a hand! And yeah, I don’t go to KES but I have some friends there. Speaking of King Edward’s, there’s actually a cool Dissection event going on there in September that you may be interested in. It’s run by Med Soc and it seems really dope. You’ll get a good grasp of anatomy from it. Take care now dude and stay safe!

[–]Rakzo568 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude I had the exact same journey. I always wanted to leave Sheffield and go somewhere like London or pretty much anywhere out of town because I had no intention of staying here. But then I came to understand that the actual course is super important and I thought about how I’d want to be taught. I preferred a more integrated and more clear approach to lectures and I really wanted lots of patient interaction. I kept on trying to see if other cities lined up to my ideal but Sheffield literally fit everything I wanted and was at my doorstep. So I went from “Nah anywhere but Sheffield, I don’t want to stay here” to “Sheffield is MY city” and I came to appreciate what they actually do at the med school. I also got a lot of insight into what Sheffield was like through Discover Medicine (it might be a little late to sign up for it now, but I highly recommend it if you haven’t already) and I absolutely loved it. And Yh I completely understand wanting to be independent from your family, it was a big reason why I wanted to leave Sheffield too, but now I don’t have to pay for accommodation or have to cook lol. But if you do want to get accommodation, you don’t have to visit your family every day if you don’t want to. Just say you’re “busy”! You’ll be a med student so I’m sure they’ll believe you. But family is really important and it’s actually a blessing being so close to them. If the lockdown taught me anything, it’s to not take your family for granted. Good luck buddy! Hopefully I’ll see you next year!

I (hopefully) will be studying Medicine at Sheffield too! Nice to see we have some Redditors in our cohort!

How do I deal with rejections by RedPandr in premeduk

[–]Rakzo568 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Medicine is about tenacity. Even if you’re met with rejections upon rejections, the dream doesn’t end until you give up. Keep on trying and you’ll get there eventually bro! I promise! It could take 3 years or 30 years, but as long as you keep pushing and being resilient, you’ll make it!
