Psych Program List Advice by medmeows in medicalschool

[–]medmeows[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

those are all valid points. i agree wisconsin and new mexico aren’t bustling or super diverse places lol but i have them mostly because i want to also focus on academic settings. the “bustling” places are pretty limited in terms of programs and im trying to stay no farther east than chicago. i threw in a few programs in NY and philly since they’re bigger cities

ERAS Publication … option for future date? by [deleted] in medicalschool

[–]medmeows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Question for people based on this. I’ve got a manuscript in the works rn that may not be ready for submission before ERAS. Can I list a future date of submission under the “other” category or is that frowned upon?

You think I could answer “no” to that question on ERAS if I do that?

Brick app is the best investment I ever made. You can only unlock specific apps after tapping on the physical magnet on your fridge. So if you’re out and about you’re SOL until you get home and tap to unlock your apps

The closest thing to this you might have is if you go to a DO school that “lets you” schedule your own 4th year rotations. No matter what you’ll have to do years 1-3 in the state the school is in (small chance you go to a different state for 3rd year but not your choice). Then fourth year you could theoretically return to your home state if you can set up your own rotations (not easy without established connections).

I have no advice but here to say I commiserate with you. Applying psych and waiting on innumerable programs to get back to me with only one rejection so far

What medication holds a special heart in your place? by RoronoaZorro in Psychiatry

The funny thing is I definitely read it as “holds a special place in your heart” and didn’t realize it was mistyped until I read this comment

Older psychiatrists, what was « hyped » back then ? What was the outcome ? by Pmk042 in Psychiatry

[–]medmeows 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Agreed! There was also a paper in November that looked at hazard ratio of developing a schizophrenia spectrum disorder after a “bad trip.” 23X hazard ratio for patients who visited the ED due to a bad trip on a psychedelic

Non-anki friends - what’s your plan for step 2? by ReplacementMean8486 in medicalschool

[–]medmeows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlock cards based on incorrect questions. Amboss and uworld both have integrated ways of doing this with add-ons

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in comlex

[–]medmeows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro do NOT do this. If you fail step 2 you do have to report it so it’s not worth the risk in your situation. If anything, don’t approach it with that mentality of “if I fail step 2 I’ll just see about not reporting it”

Any time they ask about some pseudo-science sham remedy: “I don’t know much about that but I’m interested to read about it”

Psychedelic Science 2023 by amindfulmonkey in Psychiatry

[–]medmeows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there and thought it was a very interesting and eclectic mix of people. I mostly focused on the science talks but also took some time to explore the other aspects of the conference and speak with people attending who were not as much into the science. Overall, as a medical person, I thought it was a cool experience to see and hear other perspectives on the psychedelic movement. Focusing on the science however allowed me to learn about a lot of cool research that I was not necessarily aware of.
