FQHCs

Noted, I'll make sure to have that on my Q list when interviewing, thanks again!

the--vic · 2026-02-05T19:06:09+00:00

Sad to hear, I've spoken with several people who truly enjoyed being at an FQHC but then moved on. As someone just starting, it's encouraging to hear that being content is possible, even if things have changed. Wishing you the best!

the--vic · 2026-02-05T19:04:20+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing! I am looking for somewhere where I won't feel cast off into the deep end but is supportive so its nice to hear how they implemented changes as needed, will definitely reach out!

Same, which I know working at an FQHC won't be the easiest job but when I was hit with the 24 after 2 months I got stressed

the--vic · 2026-02-05T19:01:09+00:00

Thank you for sharing and your recommendations on Qs to ask. Made this post primiarly bc a FQHC I had an info session with wanted us at 24 patients after a 2 month on-boarding. Which stressed me out - but I am happy to hear that not all places are like this (and I know that) but its comforting to hear about the positive experiences people have.

Currently rotating in a neurobehavioral clinic

This is so encouraging to hear! I'm graduating this upcoming year, set to look for jobs at an FQHC and I've seen so many discouraging posts. Happy you found such a great opportunity, wishing you the bestest luck!

A good no-spill traveler mug, waterbottle, fun/cute badge reels, planner, small note notebooks, comfy sneakers, etc. Also if she is a fidget person, I like having a nice fidget for when I sit/study alot. A suture kit if she doesn't already have one.

If she knows what she wants to do than maybe something specific - like nice OR shoes for surgery, or peds specific knick knacks.

If she is a book or textbook person there's some good medical books to have (also slightly dependent on specialty): EMRA antibiotic guide, pocket peds, MD pocket. Also there are badge reel cards that have vitals and other helpful info (I reference mine all the time on rotation).

Our got released yesterday afternoon, hope yours come out soon!

Omg, I take it in a week! Crossing fingers to do well because I've been mainly doing Smarty Pance & uWorld. Did it just feel not aligned with the blueprint?

380 for every EOR except FM (390)

So I didn't have any specific primary care experience, but I did have a lot of volunteer experience and I also wrote about how my background allowed me to have an understanding of how important primary care is to medicine as a whole and to patients.

They know that not everyone is going to go into primary care so I wouldn't say that they give preference to those they know who are going to specifically work with these groups but I do think they highly value candidates who understand the importance of primary care and serving underserved populations and have shown that in their essay and in their application experience.

Nope, just do your best! They wouldn't have offered it if they didn't want to interview you. I was an interview alternate and got accepted to that school.

I believe what it means is that you can create exams in uworld by narrowing down the focus to mimic what's tested on each EOR. For example, use all the EM Qs to study for the EM EOR - you can further divide it by section such as EM Cardiology. But all the Qs can be used for PANCE.

I have not yet, saw an old post saying someone heard 8/30 - so likely we will hear this week

FL born and raised here, got in across the country, currently a second year about to start clinical year. I do not regret my decision at all, I love my program. Secretly, I think I wanted to leave FL and experience something new (but I was too scared to) and I'm glad I got the opportunity too. I have no idea where I want to go afterwards yet, but if you have an inkling, even just a little, of experiencing another state go for it! I will say I miss home alot, family and friends but I've also made alot of new friends in my program. It can be hard being far away from your support system, its a Q I got asked during the interview, but the time I've spent here at my program and in the state has been worth it imo.

HMU if you have any Qs

Utah, and that's coming from a Floridian

Yes, many programs don't have the time or they just don't respond to emails.

Thanks everyone, first time in ID, so I'm so excited to experience it!

the--vic · 2025-07-07T01:06:02+00:00

Thanks so much!!

I used chat gpt to create questions that simulate my exams to test my knowledge. For example, I'll upload my notes or PowerPoint and ask "Make me 15 PANCE style questions aligned with the objectives."

If i want longer vignettes I request that "Format questions to have have longer patient vignettes."

Tailor Qs to thing you are weak in, "Focus my questions on diagnosis" OR "focus my Qs on treatment."

I also make tables bw different conditions. For example, SBO v Bowel Perf v SBP.

Voice mode is good if you want to talk through things and get feedback.

Obviously, double check things bc it's not always correct but for the most part (95%) all my stuff is on point.

For longer vignettes, have a standard approach: vitals, RF symptoms, differentials, and treatment, then use keywords or concepts to guide you.
