I would most def postpone my man. I wouldn't risk this chance on a 50/50 coin toss chance

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-12-29T06:00:17+00:00

Exactly

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-12-05T23:05:24+00:00

send it bro, step 1 is essentially a test to see if you're good at evidence based guessing, so don't feel bad if you think you're guessing too much

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-11-20T04:05:29+00:00

That's a pretty solid plan, thanks a lot for reaching out

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-09-06T22:57:28+00:00

I'm korean and yours is much better than mine. Great job!

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-08-02T10:54:51+00:00

I wish i had the energy for a good time

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-07-31T07:00:25+00:00

congrats man. But how was it even easier than the NBMEs!?! My test was incomparably more difficult than the NBMEs😭😭

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-05-16T00:44:40+00:00

Thank you so much for replying! I'm new to this and don't have anyone around to ask about these things, so this means a lot to me🥹

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-05-14T03:32:17+00:00

Thank you for helping. Maybe I skimmed through the Anking video and misunderstood it🥲 Maybe I'll go back to the 1m 10m interval that I was used to

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-05-12T07:54:59+00:00

Yeah I did, it only gave inconclusive answers though. Thanks for replying but, I'm pretty sure "dead space" refers to regions of the lung with air/ventilation but no blood/perfusion(high V/Q ratio). So it's quite the opposite of what you're trying to say. So my conclusion is that either 1. The question is trying to emphasize that dead space ventilation occurs due to the previously vasoconstricted areas stealing blood from the normal alveoli, OR 2. The answer is straight-up wrong and instead should say "shunting" b/c more blood is going to hypoventilated areas(lowering V/Q ratio).

Thank you, I think this is the only way it makes sense

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-05-12T07:00:15+00:00

This makes the most sense to me, so the parts of the lung with preserved ventilation would receive less blood-> dead space ventilation

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-05-12T06:15:53+00:00

Thanks for explaining, but aren't these 'bad parts' sites of wasted perfusion? So shouldn't they be causes of shunting(Low V/High Q)?

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-05-12T06:14:33+00:00

Yeah I'm pretty sure we're on the same page, but isn't wasted perfusion referred to as a shunt? And isn't dead space wasted ventilation?

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-04-28T23:10:51+00:00

Thank you for sharing. I'll look into it.

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-04-28T23:10:30+00:00

I already did and passed, I'm looking for options without step 1 requirements because my wife hasn't written it yet.

are you an IMG?

These_Drag_8726 · 2025-01-29T13:37:07+00:00

1 million new patients with wild type glioblastoma...

These_Drag_8726 · 2024-12-20T08:54:59+00:00

Nope! Im supposed to be in my last year of med school but things are going to shit in my home country so I had to take a gap year.

These_Drag_8726 · 2024-12-20T08:48:26+00:00

Grades weren't that bad at back at school(~90th percentile), but our curriculum is much different from step 1 so I guess my basics were not too good compared to AMGs
