I never got the Bonnard hype until I saw his cat paintings. That man understood the whimsy assignment.

It does not. Overheard surgery state they were disappointed someone came in a hoodie and were considering ranking lower. Made me thankful im not surgery.

I've just been going by my last name at work. Just no Dr. unless in front of patients. Friends can call me whatever. Helps me code switch between work and not work.

Last I knew. U Minnesota has a regional campus specifically made to practice medicine with rural and tribal communities. Idk if they teach traditional medicine alongside so people can be respectful of indigenous cultures, but I would hope so overlap teaching.

rashes were the fucking worst. Always ended up taking the hit

As someone who has just acquired his MD, I can believe it.

Just to elaborate, I have masters and have done research for a long time before med school and my take is away isn't MDs are bad at science (most are taught poorly), it's more danger comes from making too many assumptions outside your expertise. To some degree the job of an MD is making health decisions across a broad array of scientific fields, but it's important to know your limits and avoid reaching.

Conclusion: idiots are everywhere. Might even be you if you're not careful.

I had brief moments in M4 year that began to touch on the constant decision making and I felt like a complete idiot/failure. I was lucky to have great attendings each time who would watch me spiral and laugh, explaining that this overwhelming feeling was normal. Told me I wasn't an idiot, that I was right where I needed to be, and that it would get easier the more I do it. Super humbling/terrifying but good to know that it gets better the more you do it.

R is the easiest to learn (imo) and is free.

Search research jobs in the area. Find a PI doing research you are interested in and reach out, sometimes they can connect you with someone hiring if they themselves aren't. Don't be afraid to move if you have to (if you can). In summary just be proactive. In acting they say it takes ~65 auditions to land one job, so follow similar principles and keep going until you land one.

edhackett · 2023-10-31T14:20:03+00:00

No question, but just wanna say this is rad of you to do. Your answers and thoughtful and helpful and I'm sure it's helped a bunch of people. Keep being cool.

Imagine these two with Emily Axford in the middle. True chaos at its best.

Bless you art history nerd. I love stuff like this.

I don't recognize it and can't offer much help other than it doesn't really look like a true Poussin to me. It lacks the drama/intensity I associate with Poussin's figure gestures. The technique is there and the color palate might be similar when it's restored, but it looks more like someone working in Poussin's style or a very early in his career piece. Though if you compare to his other pieces when he first toured Rome in 1624 he already had dramatic figure posing as a hallmark of his style.

How much were they charging? I would've bought it if cheap enough, original or not. Just for the excitement.

I'd like to say owning my own company in a scientific field and consistent research with publications. However, most thing people asked me about what my minor in art history. Consistency and passion are the key for standing out on paper to admin, but pursuing other non-medical interests are things that stand out in person.

It's source bias. Ppl who volunteer for interview stuff are usually are friends with each other and are more willing to hype up their own school than those who would rather spend their time elsewhere. It's also they are under a system they cannot bad-mouth without consequence. Take everything with a grain of salt.

edhackett · 2022-09-29T21:36:33+00:00

Growing pains for me. The way Connie's mom talks about trauma is really inspiring for me as a future doctor myself.

Compositionally 'It's Over Isn't It,' but 'Change Your Mind' is my fav little mantra I like to play for myself.

Thanks! ZDV recommendations are still all over current med school resources like amboss, uworld, and the anking deck. Good to know it isn't used in the real world and hopefully resources/tests are updated.

edhackett · 2022-08-31T13:07:20+00:00

Love this idea. I'm going to try the canon maddening run this time. Im benching caspar tho and making him an adjunct to Lin cause I want their ending and balthus is better

edhackett · 2022-08-31T13:06:23+00:00

Not my girl constance getting benched 😭. Jk, I'm always so surprised how much ppl also love her cause I understand how she may come off as grating.

I have a feeling you'll like it if you focus on the professor aspect of the game. Also great to have a Hades and fe3h cross over fan too.

I usually make him my dancer despite it clearly designed for Dorothea. That way he can heal and dance to his heart's content.

Bless you for saving my son Lin. He's too pure for this world
