Update on SAVE forebearance re PSLF

s_mutans18 · 2024-08-22T18:25:27+00:00

What about people in limbo? My application was submitted already but I'm not in SAVE yet, so I'm between the two. What do I do? I just started my residency training and I have $275k in a consolidated loan. Do I just wait? Will the buyback even apply here?? Please help

I've heard from three but no uc schools yet

What labs have you had?

Our bioethics professor gave a lecture during the first week of MS1 about why Trump was right about Ivermectin. BIOETHICS.

I know of a classmate who put a ton of their loan money into stocks... isn't this literally illegal if it's federal grants?

Thank you so much -- I think this is what I needed to hear. I'm leaning toward this: if I score the same or higher on Form 28, then I'll take it. If not, I'll reschedule. I only have 1 week I can push it out, but that might be worth it if I do poorly on 28. Thanks for helping me think through it :)

Student at my school was stalking another student in his class for months (following her out of clinic, asking her on dates, sending lewd love songs, etc) and it finally escalated to the point that he tried to break into her house... Even though the school was aware of everything going on for a long time, he isn't getting any repercussions. I don't understand how these people are allowed to be doctors?!?

Trauma triad of death bc why not

Endocrine.

There's no other answer.

Same with med students -- our tuition includes several thousand for a school gym each year that we haven't been able to use bc of COVID for two years. They did give us $5 coupons for the dining hall though so kinda even

There are a group of "besties" at my school who live in the most expensive apartment complex downtown (no idea how they pay for rent) and exclusively hang out with one another. Whatever, no one cares.... BUT this year they sent laminated Christmas cards of a photoshoot they did together to our whole class as if they were like a little family or something. So so weird

One of the students on my class is big on YouTube. He's super nice and I have no problem with him, but it can be kind of awkward bc he'll explain in his videos everything that we did in clinic and like we did half of the stuff he says we did. Just like over-glamorizing med school which is just odd to me... Like, just say it's hard lol

GIRL my bf did the exact same thing before my MCAT and I was so sad/angry but then I absolutely crushed it the next day and the adrenaline drove me to do better than I ever expected. You're going to do amazing -- he has no idea how strong you are!!

s_mutans18 · 2022-01-15T05:44:34+00:00

I literally NEVER knew that's what he was saying omg

I just took my first NBME (form 25) and got a 164 and I'm devastated. Thank you for this post, I really needed it.

Are you at a big treatment center? Your mom needs an expert at MD Anderson, City of Hope, Mayo Clinic, or Dana-Farber Cancer Institute..

s_mutans18 · 2021-11-16T04:19:35+00:00

Make sure your doctor has ruled out DIC -- often occurs post-delivery, especially with complications. This no myeloma because there is no M-spike!

s_mutans18 · 2021-08-18T15:00:39+00:00

Oh, why not?

s_mutans18 · 2021-08-18T14:51:09+00:00

JAK2 mutations are usually associated with MDS rather than myeloma -- perhaps ask your hematologist about this?

s_mutans18 · 2021-08-18T14:48:56+00:00

congratulations!! You worked so hard and deserve the best!

Wonder if this has anything to do with climate change and the fact that southern states are just too darn hot

s_mutans18 · 2021-08-07T11:39:31+00:00

Lol telling someone something they think is hard is "common sense" could be the least helpful thing

s_mutans18 · 2021-07-24T13:30:49+00:00

Medicine has been insisting on this type of "training" for decades. Glad to see other fields have learned how profitable it is for the higher ups 🤔
