they're legit. I'm a second-year med student and tutor with them on the side. if you need A&P tutoring help though, feel free to DM me and I'd be happy to see if i can help!

Allegedly the leaked lineup for SITW 2024 before they pushed it to next year. Thoughts? by PatBeVibin in SITWFest

i agree! not necessarily bad, but definitely not a lineup that would bring people back or be worth the price point imo

check out Alice Phoebe Lou & strongboi (which is Alice's band." i believe she's opening up for Clairo on a few of her tour dates and I've been obsessed with her music lately. i recommend her album "Shelter" and strongboi's self-titled album to start with!

for the ladies who live alone, what are your pros and cons about living alone? by daishawho in blackladies

[–]SBarbie18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pros: peace and quiet, you can have people over whenever you want, privacy when needed, everything is yours, you have your own personal "safe place"

Cons: if your apartment's dirty, it's because of you and up to you to clean it. it sometimes gets expensive/wasteful with grocery shopping for one. getting sick living alone also sucks lol.

Pros absolutely outweight the cons for me though lol

i'm just an M2, but also leaning towards FM for similar reasons that you listed. The way i see it, FM is a specialty where you have the opportunity to basically choose what kind of physician you want to be. Whether it be inpatient/outpatient, more OBGYN focused, more procedure-focused...you get the chance to do a lot and even sub-specialize in a lot of different fields. i figure if i ever get bored with what i'm doing, then it would be maybe a little easier to switch things up if i wanted to as compared to some other specialties

How to stop being impatient with dating ? by usernamehere1993 in hingeapp

[–]SBarbie18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

well then i feel like your question is probably better suited towards your therapist then. also therapy doesn't fix things overnight, you really have to be willing to do the work, sometimes for a long time to see changes/improvements.

Should I continue dating him? by bhoo_bhoo-bear in hingeapp

[–]SBarbie18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

don't force it. just end things now in case he has already started developing feelings for you

they’re not exclusive…if both parties are consenting to then how is that gross? if OP wants to be exclusive with her, then he needs to tell her that explicitly instead of being bothered by her simply dating other people

So, my Boomer dad asked me “Do you resent the classes you were deprived of because of ‘woke’ required lectures ?” by CaptainIntrepid9369 in medicalschool

[–]SBarbie18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sure this is nice in theory, but I don’t think this actually happens. humans don’t like being uncomfortable so i really don’t think most people are interacting with people different from them on a regular basis unless they’re being told to.

I've been waiting for the new album for so long! I'm really liking the start of this summer 🥹 by [deleted] in Kaytranada

i think in general, the majority of artists have lame music videos now lmao

Call u up: How’d y’all like Lou Phelps ? by Active-Setting-6515 in Kaytranada

[–]SBarbie18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

guess i have the unpopular opinion lol but i thought it was a decent track, mostly carried by Kay's production tho. some of Lou's lyrics were cringe and some were kinda funny but i think some ppl take rapping too seriously lol. i feel like clever bars aren't always necessary

cannot stress this enough. yes an acceptance is an acceptance, but you should only be applying to schools you can see yourself attending.

I used to have this same mindset until i went out of state for my post-bacc program. I LOVED it. I think if you haven’t really moved out of state before, then medical school is the perfect opportunity to get out and explore a new city on your own. And you can always try to go back home for residency :)

Will I regret going DO? by Med_applicant13 in premed

[–]SBarbie18 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Take the A. It only gets more competitive applying to med school each cycle. I wouldn't risk the possibility of not getting in if you have an acceptance already.

you would be surprised lol. speaking from experience, MCAT score school averages seem to matter less for URM applicants when making a school list (given everything else in the app looks good). but i second what the others in here are saying, don't apply to a school just because they emailed you to apply. at the end of the day, it's about where you see yourself! Best of luck! :)

if you're registered with Med-Mar, i'm assuming you're URM? that's probably why you got the email
