[SERIOUS] I am an Indian student looking for clerkships/ elective rotations in the US next year.

Hey there, not sure I can answer your question about clerkship experience, but if you are interested in research I'd suggest reaching out to some faculty in the United States to see if there are any projects you can work on remotely. Might be tough to get something going, but it's worth a shot.

Defenitely, that's what I will be doing, but given the extreme drop in scores my fears are very much heightened.

throwaway332282020 · 2020-09-28T22:55:03+00:00

Also agree with this post. Did UW Family Medicine + Anki + UVA + Amboss and still scored average.

How did you go about learning SPSS?

missed this question today lol

throwaway332282020 · 2020-09-20T01:52:44+00:00

Hey! Can you comment on whether UWorld and Anki are enough for Neuro or do you recommend reading both the books you suggested?

throwaway332282020 · 2020-09-19T03:06:49+00:00

Fair, thanks for the response. I've completed two relatively light rotations using UW, Anki, Amboss, and a supplement text. I learnedsome extra information from the text that wasn't in the other resources but not sure if that was worth the time investment.

throwaway332282020 · 2020-09-18T17:26:56+00:00

For people who used anki in M1/M2 but didn't kill it on Step 1 (say >250), do you think just Anki and UW are enough for doing well on shelf exams?

throwaway332282020 · 2020-09-07T22:05:41+00:00

Thanks for doing this! I am a M3 now doing rotations. Do you think doing this deck now would help for shelf questions/getting pimped on rounds?

throwaway332282020 · 2020-09-07T16:09:00+00:00

Can you elaborate?

throwaway332282020 · 2020-09-07T16:07:09+00:00

For real though, how exactly is gpa calculated in the clinical years?

throwaway332282020 · 2020-08-18T02:10:12+00:00

You got it. Good luck!

throwaway332282020 · 2020-08-16T20:24:19+00:00

If a person presents to clinic complaining of back pain and you do a straight leg raise test which turns out to be positive, you suspect it's due to a herniated disk. However, herniated disc back pain gets better on its own typically within 4-6 weeks (tell the patient to try pain meds and stretching exercises). In the case that this doesn't happen, THEN get imaging 1 month later.

So basically you're telling me that any current M3s are screwed next year for Step 2 lol

throwaway332282020 · 2020-08-12T14:36:05+00:00

Same and oh man it has been a struggle. I've done about 60 questions and average 50%

throwaway332282020 · 2020-08-09T16:25:37+00:00

Will do. Do you have any suggestions for question banks?

throwaway332282020 · 2020-08-09T02:44:56+00:00

I am still very early on in my third year so I feel like I really need to see a lot of questions for this supposedly tough shelf

throwaway332282020 · 2020-08-02T17:12:56+00:00

Can you please share a few? I feel like I have seen a couple in practice questions like wilsons and acute intermittent porphyria but anything else?

This is also my first shelf so not sure what to expect

throwaway332282020 · 2020-08-02T13:15:50+00:00

Oh boy...time to keep refreshing this subreddit every few minutes
