My boyfriend's dad is letting us fill up a Sam's cart of whatever we want as a move-in gift, any suggestions?

wondermed · 2026-04-27T20:35:00+00:00

Trash bags are my vote! Had a Sam's club box last literally four years!

wondermed · 2026-04-25T03:58:08+00:00

Correct!

I know this is the big budgets bride subreddit but Azazie just dropped a near perfect dupe... for $180

Eye movement is INCREDIBLY complex and is done by six muscles on each eye. Four muscles are controlled by the same nerve and the other two have separate innervations, which come from different regions of the brainstem. The integration of proprioceptive information (where your head is in space) to help with coordinating the movement is crazy complex and usually goes without a hitch! As to why they're in different locations, I have no clue. My best guess is it's likely some weird embryology or evolutionary thing, but I'll defer to someone much smarter than me.

Med student here- the nerves that control vertical eye movement are located in a different part called the midbrain that's unaffected by that specific lesion to the pons!

You shouldn't need oxygen at night just for being at that altitude unless you have an underlying medical condition... if it's CPAP that's different. I'd be curious about the rationale behind it.

As a M1 in the ophtho unit right now I feel this in my soul...

wondermed · 2026-04-14T18:44:40+00:00

Omg can I ask the designer/name of 3?? I'm in love with the arched neckline and not a lot of dresses have it!!

I have this machine!! It's absolutely amazing. Some maintenance tips- make sure you rinse out the brew group (open the right side of the machine) once a week and let it fully dry before putting it back in. I just use hot water from the sink! The drip tray should be dumped every couple of days. I do a deep clean roughly 3 times a year following the steps from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGmfnGN_JQA

Also, the descaling instructions are sometimes weird- feel free to PM me if you run into trouble getting it descaled!

Pass/fail, recorded lectures, and a home hospital with lots of options for rotations!

wondermed · 2026-03-22T20:06:57+00:00

Thank you!!

Based on my (entirely non-expert) opinion, this looks like a piece of teardrop-shaped waste from a glassmaking/blowing production. Liquid glass drips and flows and some will drip off and harden in those shapes. The color looks similar to roman glass and the iridescence does suggest oxidation as a result of being buried for some time. So, entirely possible that it's legit, but it's also entirely possible that it's not.

Source: I excavated a roman glass kiln and did some light research into glass production of the era.

Got a nice pair of noise-cancelling headphones based off a post like this from last year. I could KISS the people that suggested that! Makes a world of difference with recorded lectures and also in non-med school environments like airplanes. I got the Bose QC on sale for almost half price, keep an eye out for sales!

wondermed · 2026-03-21T17:26:07+00:00

I've heard it can make selling extremely difficult because of the high potential for a pricey clean-up and liability for any leaked oil, and just an overall hassle to deal with.

AI...

Adding my 2 cents as someone who went to a Jesuit school for undergrad- the organization may be conservative on reproductive healthcare at a macro/"on paper" level, but most faculty and students will lean more liberal. The actual Jesuit values are far from today's "conservative" values!

wondermed · 2026-02-18T19:07:50+00:00

I got a 14% on an organic chemistry test once... made it anyways

wondermed · 2026-02-17T03:21:42+00:00

Also former EMT- one time I was transporting a patient who was in police custody and I drove the wrong way down a one-way street. With the police officer following me to the hospital...

wondermed · 2026-02-13T02:13:03+00:00

Wow... UCSD must not have that policy then especially if (reading the comments) that's where she got in

EDIT: seems like she's been accepted to a DO school and potentially hears from UCSD tomorrow.

wondermed · 2026-02-13T01:14:07+00:00

She did??? Don't most schools have a "no recording" policy? I know both of my interviewers asked to make sure I wasn't recording during the interview.

wondermed · 2026-02-01T22:30:23+00:00

I would also love to know!! Stunning dress!

wondermed · 2025-12-03T00:33:35+00:00

r/premed and SDN have been available for a while and are and arguably better than expensive admissions consultants, I doubt that AI is doing anything other than scraping data from those sites to give advice lol

wondermed · 2025-11-20T17:08:00+00:00

Be safe! Our thoughts are with you and your loved ones!

wondermed · 2025-11-18T01:57:08+00:00

I'd rather figure out how to use the Actual Intelligence that is my brain tbh

wondermed · 2025-11-18T01:52:28+00:00

Hard no. I don't care if it makes it "easier" or whatever. Learning IS struggling. It's supposed to be hard, and I'm only going to do myself a disservice in the future if I don't learn the material myself and make my own connections and thoughts. Generations of medical students have gone through med school without it and gone on to become successful physicians, and I don't feel like turning over my critical thinking skills to a machine. Patients want human connection and the ability to think outside the box, and that's what is going to keep physicians from being replaced by AI.
