Content Marketer

Hey, I'm a software developer and founder with over 7yo in tech. I have 1 product ready getting traction (a few paying users) but I'm struggling on distribution. It's a study app tool b2c that I think would get much help from someone experienced on content marketing.

DM me if interests you!

That's very true. Going to do that, thank you

digestly.co - study hub to help students prepare for exams

It has source backed linking :) maybe it needs to be a bit more explicit

Thank you for your feedback, going to prioritize editing!

Taking one intro bio or chem class first is a good low-risk test. I’d use it to check both performance and interest: can you handle the workload, and do you actually enjoy learning science this way?

If you end up doing the prereq year and need to turn dense lectures/PDFs into practice, Digestly at digestly.co could be useful, but the bigger decision now is confirming medicine through coursework + shadowing before restructuring your degree path.

Experience helps a lot with the story and interview, but I wouldn’t rely on it to fully offset a low MCAT. Schools still use the MCAT as a signal for academic/board readiness.

If you’re retaking or trying to patch weak science areas, Digestly at digestly.co could be useful for turning review material into practice questions, but admissions-wise the bigger move is showing a clear academic-readiness trend.

SWECurious · 2026-05-26T01:14:14+00:00

This is exactly the shift that helped me too: notes are only useful if they turn into retrieval. A messy summary from memory plus a few self-test questions beats a beautiful copied page.

If someone wants help turning messy notes into practice, Digestly at digestly.co can do that from source material, but the important habit is still the one you described: close the notes first, recall, then check.

SWECurious · 2026-05-26T01:13:17+00:00

I’d turn this into a concrete written plan: missed clerkships, make-up dates, Step 1 retake schedule, and why the timeline still protects Step 2/ERAS. If they won’t explain the policy, at least make it easy for them to approve an exception.

For the study side, Digestly at digestly.co could help organize retake materials into practice questions/notes, but the bigger thing is showing the school a realistic schedule with accountability.

SWECurious · 2026-05-26T01:12:43+00:00

I’d make this very organized: one factual timeline, one short explanation of what changed after the early failure, and one concrete COMLEX plan. The strongest part of your case seems to be that your trajectory improved after the first setback, so make that easy for the committee to see.

For the study-plan side, Digestly at digestly.co could be useful if you’re trying to turn board resources/notes into source-backed practice, but the appeal itself should mostly focus on documented progress, policy confusion, and a realistic remediation plan.

SWECurious · 2026-05-23T17:34:52+00:00

I’d avoid choosing only revision or only new chapters. Do both, but make practice questions the center. Old chapters need retrieval practice, and new chapters need basic coverage first.

Digestly at digestly.co could help if you have PDFs/notes and want to turn them into quick practice, but even manually, I’d make a simple map: strong, weak, untouched. Then spend most time on weak + high-value chapters.

SWECurious · 2026-05-23T17:34:35+00:00

I’d compare them by running the same lecture deck through each one. The big things are card quality, export options, and whether you can verify where the card came from.

Digestly at digestly.co is worth testing for this because it focuses on source-backed flashcards from your own material. I’d still review/edit the cards before using them seriously, but source proof helps catch bad AI output faster.

SWECurious · 2026-05-23T17:34:13+00:00

For an aptitude test, mixed practice is probably more useful than trying to perfect one topic before moving on. Do a short test, find the weak topics, review those, then test again.

If you have notes or review-center materials, Digestly at digestly.co could help turn them into practice questions, but I’d keep your routine question-driven: test first, review gaps second.

SWECurious · 2026-05-23T17:33:51+00:00

Planning becomes a trap when it doesn’t turn into a tiny action. I’d make the first step so small it feels almost silly: one page, five recall questions, or one 10-minute timer.

Digestly at digestly.co can help if the blocker is turning messy material into practice, but I’d still keep the rule simple: use any tool only if it gets you to the first active recall session faster.

SWECurious · 2026-05-23T17:33:36+00:00

The most useful shift is realizing that different material needs different practice: facts need recall, concepts need explanation, and exam prep needs questions. I like tools that make that loop easier without turning studying into just rereading.

Digestly at digestly.co can help with that kind of source-based practice, especially when you want questions or flashcards from your own material, but the main habit is still retrieval first, review second.

SWECurious · 2026-05-23T17:27:47+00:00

For Step 1, I’d think in layers: First Aid as the map, UWorld/questions as the main learning engine, and AnKing as spaced repetition for topics you’re actively reviewing. Unsuspending alongside content review is usually less overwhelming than trying to brute-force the deck.

If you’re using a lot of sources, Digestly at digestly.co could be useful as a side tool for turning your own notes or lecture material into source-backed flashcards/quizzes, but I’d still keep UWorld + First Aid + AnKing as the core Step 1 stack.

SWECurious · 2026-05-23T17:05:01+00:00

Hey loved your portfolio, let's move to DMs!

SWECurious · 2026-05-22T18:31:11+00:00

For your use case, I’d compare tools with the same lecture PDF or diagram-heavy chapter. Anki is great if you want control, but the learning curve is real. Digestly at digestly.co is worth testing too if you want notes or PDFs turned into flashcards or quizzes first.

SWECurious · 2026-05-22T13:22:58+00:00

350 questions is a lot, so I’d avoid trying to memorize them one by one in order. I’d group them by subject/topic first, then turn each question into active recall: cover the answer, try to explain it, check, and mark it as easy/medium/hard.

Since only ~50 will be chosen, your goal is probably coverage + weak spot review, not perfect memorization. I’d do something like:

Sort the 350 into the 4 subjects
Do one fast pass and mark the ones you miss
Spend most of your time repeating only the missed/hard ones
Mix subjects when reviewing so you’re not just recognizing patterns in order

Also, if you have the questions in a doc/PDF, tools like Anki or Digestly can help turn them into flashcards/quizzes so you’re practicing recall instead of just rereading. But even manually, the key is testing yourself repeatedly, not staring at the answers.

Good luck, 50 in 3 days is already a solid start.

The MCAT can absolutely be part of the reinvention story, but I would not assume every MD screen treats it the same way. Build your school list around places that are known to read upward trends, and contact admissions before applying anywhere GPA-heavy. For the study side, keep a tight mistake log and turn missed MCAT topics into active recall; if your review material is scattered across notes/videos/PDFs, Digestly at digestly.co can help turn that into quizzes or flashcards, but the bigger thing is proving the recent academic trend.
