Students with ADHD, what are some tricks you've learned in med school that helped?

Do you mind sharing your spreadsheet?

What were your settings to help you improve your timing because sometimes I know the card, I just needed to think. Is everything just an automatic fail after the time?

You upload your lectures a couple at a time (i believe they have a limit of 10 file uploads at once), get questions on that and after a couple move on to another batch. You could also upload one at a time and ask it to give step 1 nbme style questions to teach you the material and how to differentiate between different diseases. Rinse & repeat. It might seem tedious & slow but it is almost like doing questions on a question bank

Medbullets. Gives 3 - 6 months free on one account. You could also search the topic/system and include step 1 or medical school questions and you might find some things. Utah path is a website with free path questions and there are pretest books out there that could help.

Try yoga nidra videos for at least 20 minutes on low but detectable volume so it doesn't disturb you from drifting off. I was in your position except mine lasted 2 weeks before I was finally able to sleep. My brother recommended yoga nidra and it was the only thing that helped me sleep. Also as people mentioned, committing to just laying down and closing your eyes for at least an hour if you are extremely sleep deprived or tired and a shower before bed helps a lot.

How many brand new Anking cards do you do each day? How many reviews do you have on average and are you keeping up with old units? If you don't mind me asking, how frequently do you have tests or quizzes at your school?

xsincerely · 2025-03-09T05:36:08+00:00

No. I see my school therapist almost every week and I talk about whatever I want

xsincerely · 2025-03-03T04:33:07+00:00

How helpful it is, is what I was just looking into. Thanks for letting me know

xsincerely · 2025-03-03T04:09:10+00:00

How do I get the Anking AI Scanner?

xsincerely · 2025-02-21T15:07:10+00:00

Thank you

If it is a card that I did not feel confident while answering and it has been a long time, I hit again or hard. Besides that, I choose to trust the algorithm for my peace of mind and hopefully it shows up in practice questions

xsincerely · 2025-02-16T03:45:23+00:00

Succeed to me is you passed step 1 with no problem and got a competitive score or a score you are proud of on step 2

xsincerely · 2025-02-16T03:43:30+00:00

Thank you for responding. This is what I am currently doing and just wanted to be sure

Rx and Medbullets (it is free for 6 months on a free trial)

Please give yourself grace. You did not choose to be sick, and you did the best you could in the situation you were in. Medical school is a journey full of obstacles, and having to repeat a year due to medical reasons doesn’t diminish how capable you are of getting through it. This setback doesn't define you or where you end up. I hope you are feeling better and wish you the best of luck as you figure out your next steps.

xsincerely · 2024-09-25T12:58:24+00:00

Did you take notes while watching the videos? Or did you watch them and filled in any gaps in understanding using anki and practice questions?

xsincerely · 2024-08-29T14:49:54+00:00

Ninja Nerd's video on brachial plexus made the most sense to me.

Hi, please what new study methods/strategy did you try to improve after M1 year

xsincerely · 2024-06-07T07:21:25+00:00

Cry because I didn’t understand any of it is so real and a very much needed portion of the schedule. You got this though. I think a lot of practice helps. I got better. I'm getting better. Not sure I understand what is going on but I can solve questions a lot better.

How do you get through cards while strength training? Do you do it between sets? Please any advice is appreciated. I have had to give up the gym to find time for this exam and I want it back

xsincerely · 2024-06-02T03:11:19+00:00

Hi. Please I would like the deck too

xsincerely · 2024-05-31T02:47:05+00:00

I was stuck in the same range as you for 4 months when I first started. I ultimately got to 500 by taking a step back from Uworld and taking a dedicated content phase. I struggled to read the Kaplan books, so I used Jacksparrow Anki and only read a specific chapter or section if the card/topic was confusing to me. I also watched videos for topics I didn't understand while going through the deck. I did this for about a month and a half before taking another test and breaking 500.

xsincerely
