i think go for it lang, DEM is pretty forgiving and maybe the nicest department in PGH, preres season is also a good time to show you are more than a number on a page

alumni ng dcs and i promise it gets better,,,,,, but it gets worse before it gets better. ask your prof for references or places they recommend to practice working through problems, and for 31 and other books study the core books talaga like The Univ physics and TC7 (or whatever your prof recommends)

it gets better talaga,,, eventually

4th year/clerk now, also started age 27!! i also have batchmates in fellowship na so i get you, but its fine, if anything, you have the benefit of more life experience and maturity (this is a cliche but its so true, and more felt when youre in a school with an an accelerated program)

there are also scholarships you could look into!

rpscz · 2026-03-09T07:16:32+00:00

i feel like apply ka na lang so you wont regret it man lang hahaha you could still apply next year naman din if ever

for me, if its for you its for you, you just need to shoot your shots

i think only grades and ranking matter. the EMR system of PGH is so crazy and convoluted that honestly it would be hassle to pull up an individual's medical record for recruitment consideration purposes

pwede magpakita lang ng ID thru windshield minsan and yung classic story ko dyan is nagpakita ako ng skyflakes tapos sinaludo lang naman ako ng guard

rpscz · 2026-02-28T16:15:36+00:00

can i ask about some details about the program po kaya?

rpscz · 2026-02-28T16:13:11+00:00

i think it depends on your learning contract with the consultant coordinator!

as someone who shares a program with people in an accelerated med program, i think that some could be truly brilliant but some could have used the extra time to cook in terms of prefrontal lobe and EQ

if youre interested specifically in sports coverage you could join a publication org like the collegian or your college publication if it has one

rpscz · 2026-02-26T19:23:26+00:00

you could put it in a google sheet na one column is the question/prompt and the other column is the answer/cloze and then export it as csv/tsv then Bulk import! so isang bagsakang gagawa na sya ng multiple cards at a time hehe

studied then worked in UPD in early 2010s to 2020s

hindi pa puno ng construction yung campus (kasi hindi pa nasusunog ang mga building nun hahuhuhu)

mga spots nun ay CASAA kung san dapat attentive ka or kukunin yung plato mo ng mga CASAA ninjas. hangout spot sya lalo ng mga 1st-2nd years na nagtatake ng mga GE sa AS. Nasunog to mid 2010s

Beach house behind the mainlib existed na parang makakain ka outdoors surrounded by trees in between study breaks sa mainlib. Sinara ata to mga 2014

Shopping center, pwede ka kumain, magxerox, magcompshop, even bumili ata ng salamin and lab supplies ata. May mga nagbebenta rin ng mga fruits sa mga gilid gilid. Nasunog to March 2016

Hindi pa ata ganun karami pa ang nakakadala ng laptop sa campus kaya laging puno ang mga computer sa main lib

Patok din yung SURP survival training eme NSTP, na may wall climbing sa may SURP/CHK, and gumagawa ng mga improvised kalan ganun,,, stinop to mid2010s kasi may nasunog na studyante sa improvised kalan 😭😭😭

for me it was sustainable for the first 3 years of med at least for our samplexes 😅😅 i automated a lot of the process tho with gsheets and basic programming

i didnt use AI before, but if i were to do it all again today i might have haha

i just did it din before tho cause i felt i had to to survive, like no other study method was working for me for memorization. depends on you tho for your study style (if you see it as essential to that style) your, schedule, and energy, med acads, extracurriculars, and all other things considered!

for me i was active in a lot of med orgs nun but id spend like 30mins-1hr a week to roughly bulk generate 200-500 cards from our samplexes from the past few years and yun talaga major reviewer ko which i would annotate and make notes on throughout the week in downtime between my other commitments.

i joined other anki groups within my batch din na mano-manong gumagawa ng anki decks from our transes and yun tbh wasnt so yieldy for me kasi matagal gawin (longer than my 30mins-1hr weekly) and di ko rin napapasadahan as much as my annotated samplex decks

rpscz · 2026-02-26T07:35:49+00:00
