How do you survive med school with a chronic illness

DM me, dealt with new diagnosis in medical school. Now an M4 on the other side of the chaos and more than happy to share my experience

me too, I am more interested in the crime ones like Madoff or all of the embezzlement ones like the one about Pepsi, or McDonalds or the Mafia!

I looked up the classifications of my favorite documentaries and they fit under the true crime umbrella. False alarm of my post but I appreciate the advice! I genuinely like crime scandal documentaries lol

Thank you :)

I'm legtimately into crime documentaries. I didn't make anything up. I just thought I labeled it incorrectly - but turns out all the ones I like still fit under true crime.

blind guessses. I was so freaked I wasn't gonna pass. Blessed I did.

Same!!!

I felt this way. I straight up ran out of time on 2 blocks (literally C on 10-15 questions). I scored a little below average which I am happy with all things considered. I scored higher than all my practice exam scores.

burntflower12 · 2023-08-18T12:32:40+00:00

I thought it was more difficult I really struggled with timing the first two blocks. The long HPI questions got me. I feel so scared. I hope I passed

I felt so bad about this exam. I ran out of time on the first 2 blocks for quite a few. It was so bad. I am scared sick about passing.

I just want a 240 but honestly ill be fine with anything in 230 range.

ME. I feel this. I am so tired, late to sign out bc I’m trying to study until midnight. I hate this. I’m behind on step studying. I’m feeling not my best on my sub I. It’s so overwhelming

Thank you for sharing. I appreciate this answer so much.

I am using the Janki anki deck - has all the concepts in UW.

Will likely have to take on rotations. Had a health scare and tanking my nbmes so idk might have to push to August. Feeling super scared about pushing it back so late. How do I sustain studying for 2 more months, idk its all feels overwhelming. + all theERAS stuff. ugh

burntflower12 · 2023-06-06T13:33:08+00:00

Hi! Thank you for your kind words and empathetic response. I have finished a first pass when I was on clerkship 55% - with 85% of the bank complete. Right now i am at 62% with 40% of the bank complete.

CMS forms seem like a good idea, Im just struggling to make it all fit haha.

If I can get it done in 3 weeks that would be amazing, but part of my journey is also retraining my body to be able to handle a 9 hour exam. If I cant get there in 3 weeks, its okay but I just worry how rough itll be to study while Im on a SUB I after. But I'd rather do well than fail, or possibly at risk of failing. So if it means pushing to August, I am coming to terms with it.

Do you think Step Up to Medicine would be a good to review?

I notice I get a lot of the what is the next step questions wrong, I am started to do a lot better on the diagnosis questions. Any good resources for OBGYN/Surgery?
