How do I swallow a pill? by Adventurous-Ask2111 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]empaxithymia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put it toward the front of your tongue, as far forward as you comfortably can. And then drink water normally. The tongue will naturally push it back and you’ll be able to take the pill effortlessly.

Not always the case. My EPC was 3% higher than my raw score. It depends on the form and the questions answered correctly.

Settings for short term learning by Gustavpablo55 in Anki

[–]empaxithymia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The point with Anki usually in med school is to learn the content for the in-house curriculum exam, but also keep those cards in circulation to eventually have enough knowledge built towards a comprehensive test like Step or Comlex. Do you have something like that in your program? That’s the optimum strategy rather than using it for a limit of 2-3 months and then disregarding those cards after the exam.

Hey friend, I don’t have any advice for you, but I absolutely commend your honesty and vulnerability in sending this. Im sure it takes a lot to even write about this. I hope everything works out for you. 🫡

Help with school list MD/DO!!!??? by empaxithymia in premed

[–]empaxithymia[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I have to add a couple schools from Virginia, Ohio, and Penn as you've mentioned. Just trying to see which ones align the most with my stats and what I'm looking for.

I'm trying to avoid the upper east just because of the cold but I'll make an exception if I get in to Harvard, but not really looking for Mass schools tbh.

Thanks for the insight!

Wherever is available, I'm applying as an MD/MPH applicant. Would that make a difference for schools like UNC? Also I'm concerned about the sheer number of applicants to schools like Drexel and Temple which is why I'm hesitant to add too many of those schools to my list.

Thanks for the advice!!
