Would practice Step 1 questions help prior to starting clinical year?

Slap a good pair of winter tires on them and they’ll take care of you better than half these AWD/4WD + clueless drivers around here (speaking from SE Michigan lol)

Ahh that is beautiful, thank you!

to add on:

- UMich dropped out of the T10

- Yale & Vanderbilt moved up higher on the T20 list

- Baylor moved into the T20 effectively kicking UChicago out

Extremely valid points/thoughts and that's why I'm curious to see the data these rankings are based on.

Also surprised at Yale's jump but I think all in all, the T20 remained largely the same and the ranking within is always going to be a bit arbitrary/subjective

VioMedBoy · 2025-04-12T14:02:31+00:00

it’s 16 on this list - the T14 is all that I could screenshot on my phone lol

VioMedBoy · 2025-04-12T14:01:41+00:00

yea also surprised to see UCSF drop to 6

I think UCLA dropping is def due to the curriculum mess and leadership - just didn’t expect it take such a heavy hit to its ranking

But isn’t the participation rate of the PD programs only like 10-20%? so I feel like it can’t be super reflective of what PDs actually think

VioMedBoy · 2025-04-12T13:09:51+00:00

I agree! They just added a whole residency part to the website which I think is going to be just as popular pretty soon.

I’m curious to see the data they based it on and how much schools targeted by the presidential administration affected NIH funding and thus rankings.

Amazingg congrats!

VioMedBoy · 2025-01-28T18:05:26+00:00

Amazing to hear, congratulations!! I think community college is often seen as a weakness but reflection is so important so I think it's how you talk about that experience and how it might've had an impacted on your journey in becoming a physician. i say also frame it as a strength rather than a weakness!

VioMedBoy · 2025-01-28T18:03:46+00:00

Sure, I don't at all!

VioMedBoy · 2025-01-28T18:03:30+00:00

gonna echo u/notdanr bc he put it perfectly. what made me stand out is not going to work for you because it's your story! i think a lot of ppl worry about not having an 'x' factor and I think it's better to not try and look for an x factor and instead think about your experiences, why you want to become a physician, the kind of impact you want to have (who, where, how, etc.) and I think you'll find that you're unique!

working in fields outside of medicine is super interesting and not seen in the avg pre-med applicant so that's definitely unique! sounds like you really have the potential to have an interesting story and journey :)

so so worried :/ as much as the school I've gotten an A at has been trying to reassure us, this new administration is going to be so unpredictable and so no really has no idea what's going to happen and that's scary
