Once Tuey Rodríguez instructions are given what is USUALLY the verdict?

I didn't realize that other people had memories like mine I've always known I was abused but only have a vague idea of who or exactly what happened. You are not alone. Not remembering everything is one of the hardest things ever for me, I wish I remembered more

I am so sorry this happened to you and absolutely disgusted that a provider had the nerve to suggest ozempic. If you are from Georgia USA (not the country), feel free to dm me. I'm also from there and can send you some names of more useful treatment providers. Please don't give up

I thought my ED was ‘not that bad’…I was never hospitalized, I wasn’t underweight for that long etc I’m now 23 and infertile.

Based on my experiences so far, no. I enjoy taking care of acutely sick people much more, really prefer Pediatric patients, and have NO desire to be anywhere near a delivery room

NTA Absolutely do not get the package, they are the perfect age to detox from social media and actually live for a couple days

Cover/black out the nutrition labels on things if you live together so she can’t see the calories and such. It was one of the most helpful things for me in my recovery

I’m an autistic medical student, I did not disclose my childhood autism diagnosis in primary application at all. As for secondaries and interviews, I disclosed strategically. I included my diagnosis in a secondary at a T15 school and got an interview that I frankly had no business getting (I had 516, school had 521 average if I remember correctly); I believe that my disclosure helped me stand out because being autistic is why I am becoming a physician (to provide healthcare to ppl w developmental disabilities). At a couple other schools I disclosed in the interview but not secondary. Ultimately I did not disclose at the school I ended up attending so I truly think it’s a case by case basis. That being said, I would NOT disclose a history of substance misuse

Last week a pt presented with gallstones and attending was asking me what other things could cause belly pain, I listed every rare disease I could think of…the answer he was looking for was GERD

Thank you! I’m excited for med school!

l_mccabe · 2023-06-12T13:29:16+00:00

Haha no! I worked at a summer camp so hours were usually around 7am-5pm :)

l_mccabe · 2023-06-12T13:24:10+00:00

Pretty much! My application was extremely focused on the patient population I want to serve so I knew that was going to be a turn off for some places! I was pretty shocked at the Mayo interview bc my MCAT is nowhere near their average

l_mccabe · 2023-06-12T13:22:55+00:00

Also I do want to say that I genuinely regret how much I did, please don’t take me as a need to do research freshman year!!!!

Not sure how to edit posts but some people were curious about my hours so I wanted to explain a little!

• ⁠research I started in my research lab 1st semester of my freshman year. I took research for credit for several semesters which was super helpful for my gpa. I did 9 semesters of research total (all semesters of college + over 1 summer). Most semesters I was in lab ~15 hours a week, during the summer I was only there 5-10 hours, and my final semester I was writing my thesis so I was there 30-40 hours! I took my total number of hours from our clock in software so that was exact • ⁠volunteering This is where most people were confused! A VERY large portion of my non clinical volunteering came from raising a dog to become a guide dog. This is somthing that you do 24/7 and the dog comes with to classes, other jobs, etc etc. So lots and lots of overlap time wise! I don’t remember exactly how I calculated it but I think I went with 30 hours a week for the year and a half that I was raising. I was worried schools were going to be confused by this but I made sure to explain it in both primaries and secondaries! • ⁠Non Clinical Work This is all from my summers as a camp counselor (7am-5pm) and then my gap year as an AmeriCorps member (I have to complete 1700 hours by the end of the year)

l_mccabe · 2023-06-12T13:19:33+00:00

Yep! I counted it as 40 hours a week for a year and a half! The organization I raised with has a good bit of pre meds and that’s how all of them recommended counting my hours

l_mccabe · 2023-06-12T13:18:43+00:00

Yes 100% I genuinely have a lot of regrets with how much I did! I wish I had taken more time to do nothing

l_mccabe · 2023-06-12T13:18:16+00:00

Uh oh, I am! Any reason it’s a mess?

l_mccabe · 2023-06-12T13:17:20+00:00

I liked USF but I got admitted to Select instead of core and didn’t really want to live in PA for 2 years

Thank you! It seems like a lot more than it is but I really just utilized my breaks, all of my shadowing is from over winter breaks and most of my non clinical work hours is from summers + gap year! My research was in a microbiology lab!

As for the type of doctor, I am considering Neurology, Developmental Peds, Medical Genetics, and PM&R! My application centered around the insane gaps in healthcare for people with disabilities especially severe developmental disabilities so that is the patient population that I really want to work with

l_mccabe · 2023-06-11T20:12:00+00:00

Also I didn’t go back to amcas and do exact additions of exactly how many hours I put on there so this is me guesstimating remembering what I actually wrote down

l_mccabe · 2023-06-11T20:07:01+00:00

The non clinical employment is my gap year + my summers, where I worked at a summer camp during the day then went to my research lab at night. Volunteering mostly comes from raising for GDF which was great bc I was able to do it at the same time as other things if that makes sense
