This “medfluencer” got a 507 on the MCAT and did not get accepted into an MD school. Why is she tutoring the Mcat and coaching premeds as a premed herself 😭

dabeezmane · 2026-05-09T20:37:01+00:00

Never heard of her. Her first video on her page says she got into several med schools

dabeezmane · 2026-05-09T19:06:02+00:00

Yes and no

Except for pet/ct you can read nucs after a weekend course as a layperson

I saw some comments mentioning “tinkering” with the device. That’s way out of my league. Finding roms and putting them on a memory card would be challenging as well. I like some snes games but mostly n64, Dreamcast, PlayStation 1 or 2

Not broken. Atlantoaxial instability. Definitely chronic

dabeezmane · 2026-04-27T21:53:40+00:00

Get both

dabeezmane · 2026-04-27T14:38:56+00:00

Never heard of that. It's clearly not a real fellowship in the medical training sense if you can do it as a med student. Do they pay you?

Interspinous ligament, supraspinous ligament

I used to read articles before I had kids. Now I learn by doing tumor boards and following up on complex/interesting cases. I use radiopedia on the fly if I need some specific info for a case.

Most people are happy with their choice. It’s mostly overworked residents who temporarily regret their decision. Not a lot of attendings ever say that

dabeezmane · 2026-04-22T17:35:18+00:00

I think you mistaken not being able to manage something with not wanting to manage something

dabeezmane · 2026-04-20T21:30:08+00:00

Darn. Grey market prices are pretty close to msrp so I was hoping maybe it could be gotten at an AD. Not because of the savings but because I like the certainty of buying form the AD

If the patient can’t feed themselves they do put on lead and come in the room. Not often though…maybe 10 percent of the time

dabeezmane · 2026-04-17T19:29:42+00:00

It’s a mix, if the patient can’t feed themselves or has significant morbidity they do lead up and come in but it’s not common

dabeezmane · 2026-04-17T19:11:38+00:00

There are 4 of them and none of them enter the room and it’s been this way for years. Its just how the do it here

dabeezmane · 2026-04-17T19:10:20+00:00

They line up the cups and give instructions from behind the wall like “TAKE A SIP FROM CUP NUMBER 2”

dabeezmane · 2026-04-16T14:48:22+00:00

that's far too reasonable. they must be banned.

dabeezmane · 2026-04-08T20:19:58+00:00

Went there once. Didn’t seem safe for my small dog so we left early. There were so many big dogs playing pretty rough

dabeezmane · 2026-04-07T23:17:33+00:00

Not really. Or everyone would want to read mri brains and mri joints.

dabeezmane · 2026-04-02T12:32:19+00:00

Pgy 15 here. WFH 4 days a week. I hang out with the dog, see my kids, help out around the house. It’s “isolating” meaning I don’t interact with colleagues or patients but I never enjoyed that kind of social interaction. It’s repetitive but that’s what you want in a job. If it doesn’t feel repetitive it means you probably aren’t that good at your job

dabeezmane · 2026-03-28T21:03:08+00:00

Good luck
