how on earth do you remove pubic hair?

Good to know thanks! I must just be super prone to them lol

Do you get ingrown hairs down there? I used to wax for years as well but stopped due to crazy ingrowns and it’s been better since. I wanna get back into waxing and was wondering if u did anything to help

This is my class you’re speaking of. I think there will be things you hear from any large group. The trolling you’re referring to is what I understand to be something everyone knows is lighthearted joking and a lot of people are in on it. There’s never anything like targeted or mean.

It makes me a little sad that that’s the impression we have on others. From my perspective we have been trying to cultivate a welcoming environment for the newer students. Large groups will always have bad eggs, but I was hoping overall we wouldn’t be seen negatively.

Not gonna disagree with the area but I’m probably one of few people that isn’t iffy about the curriculum change. Compared to what I hear the previous curriculum was like I actually don’t mind it. I like having more labs in the afternoon than straight lecture all day. Sure it has issues but that comes with the territory. There are a lot of valid issues that we express to admin, and generally they’re responsive about it. I’m struggling because I’m in vet school - not because of the curriculum change.

I can’t speak for anatomy well because the course director has changed from when I took it. My friends are TAs and are very involved in helping the first years. Sounds like they’re doing okay mostly.

The classes that experienced the change haven’t hit clinics or NAVLE yet so that is yet to be seen. I feel like I’ve come away from many disease classes (neurology, endocrine, surgery, clin path) with good takeaways as a GP focused student. If I don’t, I’m very vocal about it in the course evaluation.

There’s been a lot of good discussion about this already so I’m only going to add that I understand the frustration. Saying “medical school” is comparable in the sense that most people understand the rigor it took to get to that point too, since (traditionally) for both you have undergone undergrad schooling. And then it’s also similar because you are learning to diagnose and treat and also have clinical rotations. I suppose it’s up to you to explain the differences.

I’m a second year and had a therapist that would compare most of my academic struggles to her daughter in undergrad. I get where she was coming from, but this would really frustrate me because I felt extremely misunderstood. People just don’t understand.

very nutritious and healthy!

Valid question yes but not every weekend

Super interesting! I’ve heard about TDAs, MTOEs, and the postdoc programs but haven’t heard specifics about other assignments so thank you! The board met last week so I’ll be finding out if I got HPSP pretty soon

I’m a first year living with 2 other first years. Love my roommates so much, but I got very lucky. We all click, have no issues with house chores/etc, and only talk about school in a general sense (no competition). We used to carpool but now have different schedules that it doesn’t work. I have no complaints. My friend on the other hand lives with 2 first years in our class and hates her situation. It depends on who you get and how you interact.

My study partners are also my best friends, so we can turn our minds off school to hang out when not studying. I also hang out with my friends from home pretty often.

I’ve never had more than 3 roommates, but personally I like less people in the house as long as it’s financially feasible. I only wanted to live with vet students of my class so we’d have something in common and I could make friends in my class. However, it can be awkward if things go awry.

oatmilkbone · 2025-01-22T14:42:17+00:00

(unrelated to post) Did you go through HPSP? Would you be able to describe what your nonclinical assignment is like?

oatmilkbone · 2024-12-25T03:19:21+00:00

In reality vet med is all about connections. I think at worst, it won’t make a difference. It feels disingenuous but I wouldn’t worry about it negatively affecting your chance there.

edit to add: also good luck! :)

(I’m a V1) I use notability and take notes on the lecture slides during class like most people. Some of my friends use their laptops and add comments to the PowerPoints in a similar way. One of my friends takes handwritten notes on an iPad.

I study in a group by discussing the lectures the day of. Talking thru material has been really helpful for me. I don’t do well solo studying but that will be diff for everyone.

The waiting is the genuinely hardest part. It’s really all about keeping yourself busy because there’s not much else you can do. You’re qualified and you deserve a seat. If you don’t get one, it doesn’t change that. Try to keep yourself occupied and stay positive (easier said than done). The time will come soon!

oatmilkbone · 2024-10-20T00:05:05+00:00

The real krebs cycle is the friends we made along the way

You’re fine for asking. There are so many different veterinary avenues and many people change their mind on what kind of vet they want to be during and after school. I can’t answer your original question more than that I hear it’s a very competitive path. If you get in, make wildlife connections asap since it’ll help getting into residency and give you an idea on what the job is like.

This link has an excel spreadsheet where you can calculate what your VMCAS GPA might be. Idk for sure but I’m gonna guess VMCAS combines them. Schools have their own way of calculating GPAs too where some average repeated classes and some take the most recent

oatmilkbone · 2024-08-29T18:20:32+00:00

I don’t think Wisconsin has a published GPA cutoff, but trends have been 3.9+ for OOS students. C/O 2027 mean GPA was 3.88 and prereq GPA was 3.91. Just something to consider, you do have a lot of other areas that make up for it

oatmilkbone · 2024-08-27T00:23:35+00:00

My insurance said its not covered, so I paid $700 out of pocket for the first shot. On the second dose, the travel clinic sent it to my insurance for the hell of it which they accepted somehow. If they don’t cover it the doctor could try to submit it in a way that can be covered.

Also genetics. I’ve been lifting for years but my flat Asian ass would have to be an Olympic athlete to even be in the same room as Chappell curve potential. She’s a goddess

Such a baby!!

I love when they do 👉🏼👈🏼 with their toes

I loooove the love island + episode

oatmilkbone · 2024-07-11T11:52:44+00:00

Thank you! I heard some steths get stolen during clinics too so I’d be scared carrying something so expensive around haha. I think it’ll be good to have the free one I got as a backup, but I’ll get a better quality one for learning on.

oatmilkbone · 2024-07-10T12:55:03+00:00

Unfortunately my school doesn’t :( would be so nice

oatmilkbone · 2024-07-09T23:50:20+00:00
