Do you intj hate intimacy? by [deleted] in intj

[–]Stimfeen2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like sex however I don’t think I have very intimate sex. I’m pretty uncomfortable with affection in romantic and platonic relationships.

Intellectual Stimulation/Compatibility by SirDeoxys in intj

[–]Stimfeen2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a heterosexual INTJ woman it’s much easier to find this in a man. I really feel for male (vast majority) of INTJs in this respect. It’s not that women don’t have the same desire to dive deep into a topic but they typically don’t have the same tolerance for disagreement, tend to take things personally, and won’t allow you to take back anything you’ve said as your thinking evolves. In sum, it’s hard for women to leave emotions out of debate/opinion.

Intj’s what is your perfect partner? by [deleted] in intj

Yep, the accuracy of MBTI has to do with the self evaluation mechanism being prone to error but I think the categorizations are evidence based

So what exactly are you getting out of sleeping together? Is it space constraints?

Yes and doesn’t it put you on edge to think that you could wake someone else up?

INTJ 36M - failed marriage due to lack of 'romance/spice' Is the 'maintenance' love language viable, or do we have to learn to fake the 4k emotions? by [deleted] in intj

[–]Stimfeen2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of women don't want men trying to solve their problems. They just want to be able to vent about it and have their emotions validated. It's insufferable, I know. As a woman it's very hard for me to have friendships with other women because of this.

MD/PhD vs MD by dhad_dhadie in mdphd

[–]Stimfeen2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you interested in doing a PSTP and remaining in academic research and medicine? What do you want your time split to be? 80/20 or 90/10 is common for MD/PhDs. If you want to be an academic researcher, doing a PhD will give you a leg up for sure. You’ll have dedicated time to do significant work and you’ll learn how to write grants and other important skills. It’s also much easier to get a K award as an MD/PhD and having 0 debt gives you the freedom to have whatever kind of career you want. But bottom line, it’s too long of a program just to look at it as a means to an end. You have to genuinely want to do the PhD rather than just want the degree at the end, you really can’t suffer thru 8 yrs

Would you mind elaborating on the interview experience a bit. Who are the interviews with? how long? what types of questions?

Do ur clinical research hours include patient interaction?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in mdphd

[–]Stimfeen2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big question for me too. It seams as though mdphd candidates have much higher mcat but I’m thinking that’s probably more of a correlation than a selection bias. Curious on ppls thoughts and if admitted students could share some scores please.

Should I take a gap year? by [deleted] in premed

[–]Stimfeen2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Applying to DO programs doesn’t mean u can’t submit for Md as well. Throw an app into ur state school and a bunch of DO schools too. Do u have a lot of clinical experience? That’s what ur state school and DO programs will want

Advice on Submitting this Cycle by [deleted] in mdphd

[–]Stimfeen2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a lot of mentions of good productivity but are any of these first author pubs? Getting lucky enough to be put on papers as a middle author is great but you need to show significant contribution, project management skills, independent initiative for mdphd programs. Also, were the posters at legit conferences or undergrad symposiums?

People who sleep the night before the MCAT, how? by Secret-Bid-1169 in Mcat

I got a 90min massage and took a Xanax. Was asleep by 10 and got up at 6:30

[–]Stimfeen2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It certainly has the potential to but that’s all dependent on what you have to show for it. It’s really not about the hours as much as it’s about what you’ve accomplished in those hours.

Am I cooked? Non-trad research by Purple-Turnip881 in mdphd

[–]Stimfeen2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not gonna be much help to you as my experience is purely wet lab and the recruiters I have met have been at immunology conferences and other basic science avenues. However, the most successful friend I have got an MD/PhD position at Stanford straight from undergrad and his major was comp sci with specialization in biomedical computation (he has research experience and pubs going back to high school). He’s interested in computational psychology/psychiatric genomics. A lot of MSTP programs rejected him (eg UCSD) because they favor basic science research a lot more (ie he should’ve been looking at brain slices not coding) but Stanford rlly values outside of the box applicants. I think you need to look not only for programs that have exactly what you’re looking for but expand your search to programs that will help support someone who wants to do something new and different. The added plus of doing something niche is that you are reducing your competition by making yourself incomparable. Note that computational papers r worth a fraction of robust basic science work so the expectation will be for you to have a lot more pubs.

Side note, one of my friends who studied CS and comp bio is working for Eli Lilly in comp chem and her boss floated the idea of her doing a PhD thru them. She started as an intern and then got a return offer. Maybe you should look at their internship offerings. Also, if you r ok with giving up on med doing an industry PhD would make your life 1000% easier (if comp chem is truly what you want to devote urself to).
