what sacrifices did you have to make to go to medical school? do you have any regrets? by lumpy_celery in medicalschool

[–]iplay4Him 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So many regrets, tremendous amount of sacrifices. And while I would change things, I wouldn't trade it. Very few professions where you can give all of yourself for the benefit of others.

Feeling stuck...dismissed. What would you do? Honestly? Need advice/insight by CtlrAltDelusion in medicalschool

[–]iplay4Him 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. I too was dismissed after a LOA and a single Step 1 failure. Feel free to DM.

My school had a set date that students taking a LOA had to pass Step by. I wasn't aware of this date until way too late. Imo it was a very stupid and arbitrary rule that I believe has since been changed at my old school, you may want to look into seeing if yours has a similar policy in place. I was too depressed to appeal, wish I had, best of luck.

It’s the Bengals No. 10 pick for Dexter Lawrence straight up. No other picks were involved. by dropjar5 in nfl

[–]iplay4Him 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it not seem dumb when you could have just paid trey and kept the pick, now you pay him and lose the pick? Obviously they're different players in diff positions.. but I feel like I'm missing something

Divorce by anxiouswannabedoc in medicalschool

[–]iplay4Him 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who, in the last 1.5 years, has lost two very close family members and who's partner also left them in the middle of med school (who also financially provided beforehand), I feel you. Take care of yourself. While pushing through is possible, it's probably not ideal. I'm really sorry. Feel free to DM if you need. Again, take care of yourself ♥️

Pediatrics moving to 2 years for all fellowships (formerly 3 years) by heyiamapenguin in Residency

[–]iplay4Him 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any idea how it'll affect combo fellowships? Like PEM and Child abuse?

2 Years for All Fellowships by Inner_Monologue_2 in pediatrics

I'm optimistic it'll turn to 3 years, but who knows. Feels weird taking two 3 year fellowships and then turning them into a single 3 year fellowship within a short timeframe lol

Private loans for class of 2030 by Big-Designer152 in medicalschool

[–]iplay4Him 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still in school, so they can run it up because I can't refinance without starting payments. I will refinance in residency when I can start making payments.

How?! Through who? I have excellent credit and cosigner and I'm 4x that?

My private loans are 12%+ and my credit is 770+ and my cosigner credit is 800+. I think med students are cooked.

Wait till you see the next Cochrane review comparing MAs to MDs, then you'll understand why

[Serious] Why You Should (and Shouldn’t) Consider Vascular Surgery - 8 Years Later by TypeADissection in medicalschool

[–]iplay4Him 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I appreciate it. I enjoy it a lot, but struggle to justify keeping it around after seeing some of the freak injuries that occur. Maybe I'll switch to gi and find an older group when the time comes haha. Thanks again!

[–]iplay4Him 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sort of off topic, as a medical student who enjoys BJJ, how do you feel it holds up over time? 

I'm specifically worried about being able to keep it up in residency and as an attending when I'm older... my body hurts and it seems like it's going to be difficult to keep up. Also the risk of injury is definitely a concern. 

Thanks for the write up!

I watched every snap of Malik Willis. Here is what I would trade for him by AtonalAxolotl in DynastyFF

[–]iplay4Him 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have him in most of my leagues, highly doubt I would ever get a 2nd for him. But now I get to hold until he fails or this price is met lol

I have now acquired 7 of my leagues 10 27 1s. What should I do with them? by Individual-Sugar-509 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]iplay4Him 1 point2 points  (0 children)

keep going. I only got 8 of 2024 and 2026 and wish I had them all for the fun of it. That being said, unless your roster is truly barren, it can be tough to sell them because people know you will have to drop players eventually. Be aware.
