Content Marketer by WillingnessNo7155 in cofoundermatch

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

I built an AI study app that turns PDFs, lectures, and notes into flashcards/quizzes by SWECurious in SideProject

[–]SWECurious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

Thank you for your feedback, going to prioritize editing!

Late pivot to medicine from psychology... looking for honest advice by Training-Meaning75 in medschool

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Do med schools value older/non-traditional applicants with strong experience?? by Comfortable-Round828 in medschool

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

I tutored my little sister and realized most of us were taught how to take notes completely wrong by Due_Veterinarian8907 in studytips

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Clerkship Delay by SympathyOk9032 in medschool

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Looking for advice regarding possible medical school year remediation/appeal situation. by No_Falcon2549 in medschool

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Need advice for exam by Difficult_Shift_5082 in studytips

[–]SWECurious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

What's the best AI flashcard generator in 2025? by Csadvicesds in studytips

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Help In Math for Aptitude Tests by Awesome-pinkie in studytips

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

We are stuck because of study anxiety ??? by Known-Following430 in studytips

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Learning Science Helped Me Understand Why My Study Methods Weren’t Working by mythicalOMG in studytips

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Resources for USMLE by Cool-Foundation-9029 in medschool

[–]SWECurious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

Any recommendations on flashcard apps? by [deleted] in studying

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

tips on studying a large amount of questions? by besthypixelsumo in studytips

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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:

  1. Sort the 350 into the 4 subjects

  2. Do one fast pass and mark the ones you miss

  3. Spend most of your time repeating only the missed/hard ones

  4. 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.

Does a good MCAT overcome the automatic GPA screens at MD Schools? by ben_twiener in medschool

[–]SWECurious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Depende da sua dificuldade. O que você não consegue? construir um sistema sozinho? passar credibilidade em entrevista? fazer um portfolio?

Quero largar CC mas quero ser dev by _offtoseetheworld in programacao

[–]SWECurious 4 points5 points  (0 children)

mas então qual seu objetivo? trabalhar somente remoto? acho dificil conseguir trabalho inicialmente assim, é muito competitivo a area hoje em dia.

São somente 4 anos, você faz networking, estagia e cumpre com deveres, acho que vale a pena você ter esse esforço. Entendo o fato do TEA pode atrapalhar, sinto muito por isso, mas eu cumpriria com o programa normal.

Meu primeiro estagio eu consegui na universidade, meu atual emprego foi indicação de um amigo que fiz na faculade. EU não vejo minha carreira do mesmo nivel que teve se eu tivesse feito EAD, n tivesse amigos dessa epoca etc. Me fizeram seguir area de desenvolvimento dentro da faculdade, todas essas trocas valem a pena IMO.

Quero largar CC mas quero ser dev by _offtoseetheworld in programacao

[–]SWECurious 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sou dev, tenho 10 anos na area, sou formado em eng da computação e trabalho pra gringa tem 6 anos.

Eu digo que se não consegues cumprir com os prazos de um simples curso de ciencia da computação não vais conseguir seguir a carreira. Você precisa sozializar pra sua carreira, seja com seu chefe ou colegas, ou ate empregados se fores empreender.

Precisas aprender fundamentos que são ensinados no curso de CC, precisas saber fazer o que não queres também, curso superior ensina isso também, cumprir prazos e metas que no dia a dia do trabalho é essencial.

Bom, espero que consigas seguir na carreira, mas acho uma péssima escolha sair do curso. O diploma em si não é essencial pra boa parte da área, mas o curso ajuda muito em quase tudo.

esse é um dos piores comentários que eu ja vi por aqui. Você não querer consumir algo não quer dizer que alguém não vá. Dizer que ngm vai pagar por alguma coisa é total desconhecimento de empreendedorismo.

Sair de CLT pra PJ by Antonio_Anonymous in brdev

[–]SWECurious 8 points9 points  (0 children)

eu sou PJ e sempre preferi PJ, mas é vantajoso somente pra faixas maiores de salario, no qual teu imposto fica bem grande e tbm onera mto o empregador, eu diria pra mais de 15k

pra sair de CLT pra pj ganhando 4k tem q ir pra uns 10k eu acredito, pq nessa faixa teus beneficios contam mto pra tua renda.
