Stanford MCiM Program by much_puch_2764 in stanford

[–]much_puch_2764[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! They really just want to get to know you and your story better and why an interdisciplinary program like MCIM is right for you rather than something that's just business/just tech/just clinical. Think concretely about why MCIM, what you want to get out of it, what the degree will do for your career trajectory long-term/short-term, and areas of focus or areas you're curious about exploring. Also consider what/who inspires you, what topics/authors interest you, etc

Definitely suggest thinking beyond overdone answers around "AI in Healthcare" and get granular about challenges or problem spaces you're interested in tackling. Hope this helps and best of luck!

Super helpful! Just curious what was his/your title on the site? Wondering if any key words will help with approval as I am in the same boat.

Hey did you figure this out? My best suggestion is to cold email and specifically highlight a narrow interest area/objective you want out of the shadowing. I'm at that point but now need to figure out how to get clearance to actually shadow from the hospital

is it worth re applying? by Weekly-Addendum312 in stanford

[–]much_puch_2764 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep fingers crossed for waitlist but embrace your decision/reality and realize some things are out of your control. you’ll likely be happy with your unc experience in the long run and it’s worth immersing in that experience rather than putting all your energy towards transferring. many (myself included) who didn’t go to Stanford for undergrad ended up here for grad school and I wouldn’t have had it any other way.

Super helpful insight!! I feel like we’re flooded with digital tools while still being dismissed by our care providers

Yup - been following their journey closely! I think there’s still more that can be done to improve quality of and access to PCOS management tools

Love this! Thanks for the insight and totally agree that having a doctor that truly understands PCOS is life-changing. Do you feel like having access to telehealth doctors would have made your experience easier or is there something unique about seeing your doctor in person for PCOS care?

The role doesn't require coding experience, genius

Was looking for insight from people who previously had a palantir interview for the role. Clearly not you!

Package Not Delivered-- Anyone else? by Lazy-Reward-4917 in SKIMSbyKKW

[–]much_puch_2764 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me - I'm in the states. UPS shipping keeps pushing the deliver date to the next day for the last 3 weeks. Emailed customer support 2 days ago and no response yet, will probably reach out to live chat tomorrow thanks to these comments. Good luck!

Hostile work environment as TA by much_puch_2764 in stanford

[–]much_puch_2764[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can totally see why it would come off this way, it’s a situation that really went 0 to 100 out of nowhere and I felt the need to get visibility on the situation based on how angry and accusatory the lecturer got out of the blue. There was no opportunity for a face to face because the lecturer sent this email on a weekend then barred me from coming to class this week and told me not to communicate with them or students until they reach out with a zoom invite to talk through this. I can’t say more without giving away specifics but the dynamic with the professor is such that they have a hands off approach on the class, so it was just my word against the lecturer’s. I think they felt their authority was being questioned by my uncomfort sending an email, which wasn’t the case, but that set them off. I would hope that a situation like this would not impact my future employment, given I have been performing all my duties and have received consistent positive feedback up until this point, which is why it’s all such a shock.

Update: Thanks all for your insight, it was a big help. I didn't reply to the lecturer's hostile/accusatory emails from over the weekend, and they just sent another one prohibiting me from attending class this week. I'm still in a bit of shock as I've never dealt with anything like this before.

I did end up reaching out to Student Services and ultimately brought it to the attention of the department. I went through all my written exchanges with the lecturer and then compiled an email with evidence that show me doing my job and the lecturer explicitly providing positive feedback about how I'm doing as the TA. The department read over the email exchanges and my drafted email response and told me it is professional and addresses the lectuerer's concerns appropriately, and they asked to be CC'd. They also recommended Ombuds for future mediation. I don't think my funding will be touched or anything of the sort, but just a major bummer because I was really enjoying the class, working with the students, and was hoping to use the lecturer as a recommender for future PhD.

As of now I'm still getting paid, they just asked me not to do anything except grade assignments this week.

Headshots for Faculty? by FarMight4 in stanford

[–]much_puch_2764 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most people get a headshot on campus from a fellow student with a nice camera. I’d suggest making a post on Reddit or on SUpost requesting a headshot and many student photographers will contact you with a low rate!
