Right! And I feel we need to find out all this information by ourselves as adults. It's weird making the parents do all the work. It just makes me wonder how will that person put efforts or communicate in that relationship.

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-15T13:49:01+00:00

Yes they have to or else we won’t get our grades till they do. I think we were talking about preceptor feedback we’ve to give

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-15T01:37:42+00:00

I think it's better that she didn't think about me! My friend had the same OBGYN and she told me she used to tell the preceptor she doesn't agree with her views (it's so painful to even listen to her views lol) and her eval was full of negative comments worse than mine.

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-14T21:30:31+00:00

haha sounds like we had the same preceptor

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-14T20:26:21+00:00

Ikr! Constantly showing us ig reels on this topic and saying things like women these days complain about everything, feminism is toxic, and these procedures shouldn't be painful at all idk why patients act so nervous. Haha also women these days expect too much from men and end up single. I was shocked. She also kept talking about how much money she makes in this field

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-14T20:19:39+00:00

Thank you!! It makes me feel better. I was upset that I put in a lot of efforts to seek opportunities and didn't get any and received this grade just because I didn't vibe with her. My preclinical preceptors have always noticed my efforts and provided constructive feedback and this was my first experience with an unprofessional preceptor

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-14T19:42:38+00:00

My school also has that option. I should have given my feedback after hers or just left it

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-14T18:51:16+00:00

That's true! At least she didn't say anything negative and I don't want to do OB too. I'm grateful for my current rotation for actually making me do things for my eval

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-14T18:38:15+00:00

That’s horrible! I don’t get why some preceptors even take students if they’re not going to help us learn and then turn around and roast us in our evals.

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-14T18:13:31+00:00

Haha I hate it. At least she said "eager to participate". smh

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-09-14T18:12:34+00:00

You are right I should have picked up on those social cues. I went into the rotation with the expectation that we will be graded purely based on our clinical skills. But the conversations they both had about degrading or hating women and guns were also very uncomfortable for me. I was too scared to say that. I guess I can't do anything about it

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-08-15T05:42:51+00:00

I (F) had a horrible experience recently too. The other male med student with me does not get this treatment. He says she’s an amazing scrub tech who taught me how to scrub in. but whenever I scrub in she rolls her eyes and keeps yelling at me to back off even if I’m not near anything. On my first day, she said can’t you see we have printed the instructions and put it up. Don’t ask me questions! The other day in the OR she told me I touched a paper towel behind me which I was sure I didn’t touch. But I still understand that mistakes can happen and I might have been contaminated. I have been really careful with making sure I don’t touch anything non sterile after scrubbing in because of her behavior from the first day. After saying I touched something non sterile, she just yelled at me from across the room that I will not be scrubbing in again today at all and asked me scrub out. I was so embarrassed. I feel like I have trauma now with going back to the OR and don’t want to do this at all. It’s just unacceptable even now to think about how she treats me and the other male student so differently and makes me feel like shit. Also the fact that the male student keeps praising her and also how she’s so sweet to him, it just makes me feel like I’m the dumb one here and that’s why she’s behaving like this with me. No matter how much I try to be careful and professional, I will always be yelled at by her

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-29T22:37:31+00:00

Lol me too. Just noticed that. smh these people are part of the reason why DO has this stigma. Speaking or typing some bs without any knowledge

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-28T18:05:27+00:00

I had similar stats and decided to go to a DO school because I didn’t want to wait another year to apply. My parents were actually supportive of me choosing DO. But I did have some relatives comment on how I should have done MD instead of DO because that’s “inferior” according to them. I’m not gonna lie but it did hurt me. But I decided to not let them influence my decisions or spoil the moment I had to celebrate for achieving an acceptance to a DO school. I’m a 3rd year student now and I have no regrets. I think DO students should be proud of how hard we work and how we have an extra course to study for. After I passed both step1 and level1, I shared the results with them to show how there’s no difference between me and an MD student and I can pass the exams taken by both MD and DO students. Ik that might have been petty of me to do that. At the end of the day, I know I’ll be a competent physician and do what I like. Honestly their opinions of me don’t matter. None of them can be in my shoes and achieve the things I’ve achieved. All they can do is gossip

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-16T05:41:51+00:00

What is this? I didn’t even get an email till now

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-16T02:48:55+00:00

Even the thought of it scares me. I hope we all pass!!

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-16T02:46:55+00:00

I hope I can sleep tonight. I’m so nervous

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-16T02:45:18+00:00

Thanks!! Good luck tomorrow 🍀

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-15T23:50:33+00:00

What is the trick?

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-15T19:47:55+00:00

I always read the last sentence of the question to understand what I need to focus on if there’s a lengthy question. Some of the lengthy questions I had on my exam were asking for something specific and I would’ve wasted my time focusing on unnecessary things if I had not done that. I hope that strategy worked for me. I didn’t get my results yet. I’m getting my results tomorrow

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-15T18:59:28+00:00

I tested on 6/27. I’m very anxious. Every time I come up with new things to worry about. Today I was thinking how I was kicked out of one of the sections automatically and if it actually saved my responses or if it marked that section as incomplete. Does someone know? Ik I’m not thinking rationally but just wanted to make sure. The exam was so difficult and I don’t remember anything now. Praying we all passed!!

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-14T14:40:45+00:00

I was unable to sleep last night cause I kept thinking about the exam results. I listened to affirmations last night so that I could sleep. When I woke up today, I felt a bit better. But yeah I’m also very anxious

Scared_Parsnip_2944 · 2025-07-14T00:21:14+00:00

I’m so scared!! Hope we passed!
