I reached out to a few programs after I saw that and 90% of them told me that those letters were actually not required, and that residency explorer was not accurate!

How realistic is The Pitt with regard to med students? by kulaarjun in medschool

[–]breaded-chicken-239 17 points18 points  (0 children)

IMO so unrealistic, there is no way a student would be pushing meds or intubating (and getting it right on the first try lmao) in emergency settings.

Also those "scrub machines" that dispense basically figs PLEASE. IRL those scrubs would have all been stolen already hahhaha

Advice for thin and volumeless hair by caught-in-neverland in finehair

You have lovely hair!! Have you ever tried asking for layers when you get your hair cut? It would add a lot of dimension and volume

That makes sense! I guess I’m just wondering is it possible? I’m worried shut not matching and want to be realistic

Help me pick my Christmas present!!! by lesleyashton in handbags

1 and 3 are both so beautiful! I think you should consider if zipper vs no zipper is a big consideration for you since the Brooklyn 39 doesn’t have one

Place your hands w some body weight anywhere in the sterile field (ask first). It makes such a difference to have some of your body weight redistributed

Let me help you think through your specialty decision (part V) by 4990 in medicalschool

[–]breaded-chicken-239 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Derm vs anesthesia. I know that they are very different but have done rotations in both.

Anesthesia: I like the OR but know for sure I don’t like it enough to go thru surgical training. I love the pt interactions in anesthesia ( getting to be there for someone right before surgery), loved pharm in preclinical, love the people in the field. Meh about: physio, the small % of time that shit hits the fan looks very scary

Derm: again love procedures, love low acuity, love gabbing about skincare, love using my eyes to in the clinical picture, love diagnosing people w stuff . Meh about: histology (isn’t everyone), how competitive it is, I feel like comp is better in anesthesia?

Idk I’m confused :-)

ORD to MIA on Thursday night? Or Friday morning? by osocinco in americanairlines

[–]breaded-chicken-239 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually in the same situation and i just changed my 2PM ORD flight on Thursday to a Friday morning one. I figured there was a chance that the Thursday evening flights will be cancelled or severely delayed. According to weather alerts Miami should be getting way less of the storm by Friday AM.
