They are afraid of cheating but they did cut time from questions (approx 1 minute per question) so you don't have time to look the answer up. Either way, it's pretty shit.

Anki mate. Use the USMLE decks from reddit and get the Gray's anatomy flash card deck. Find the relevant cards in Zanki or AnKing and do them during that part of the course. Some older years will produce a good finals deck by the time you get there. You can download all the US resources like Boards and Beyond, SketchyMedical and Pathoma. Use Dr Najeeb if you have no idea as he takes ages but explains things well. Get all textbooks from lib gen, fuck tortora and fuck kumar and clark.

Bin off all in house lectures, they will be shit. Nothing can compare to the tip top quality products produced by the huge, bloated US market of step 1 resources.

Just do reflections like stream of conciousness. Like don't even write anything halfway decent. No one will read them and no one reflects properly after the Bawa-Garba case anyway.

Being the dumbest in the class is a good thing. Your only employer as a junior doctor (the NHS) recognises all GMC approved degrees the same. If you scrape into some shit hole with the bare minimum of AAA you can laugh at the mongs who went to Oxbridge or Imperial with amazing results as you all get paid the same and have no advantages/disadvantages at FPAS or speciality allocations.

US you have smart but it's all hinged on step1 score and clerkship evaluations I believe. You could be dumbest in your class and still do well nationally on step 1 and match. Howeverm step going pass fail is big RIP for a lot of people. No evaluations here so you can tell a doctor to fuck off or just leave the ward and then run away. Most trouble you'll get in is a slap on the wrist from your med school.

Honestly, being a US med student sounds a lot harder than being one over here but you do earn the big bucks as attendings

Thanks for your advice anon! I tried Zanki and that shit was so hard comparative to what Im learning in class. Would studying step 1 materials be useful? My lectures feel super low yield like they are wasting my time talking about polio history. You know where I can get b&b , sketchy med and pathoma for free? Atm I use freemedical tube and uptodate. Freemedical tube has alot of vids but not sure if it has them all from sketchy. Do you make notes on everything ? Should I be going over my notes and condensing them or just save them till revision.

It is hard but it's much better than anything you learn in UK lectures. Skim the lecture slides or look at your learning objectives given for each topic and do the relevant Zanki cards. Medicine is in some sense universal, e.g the krebs cycle is the same gobally, so it will all be the same as the content they expect you to learn here.

Fully maturing zanki would be massive overkill in my opinion but take the bits you need from that. Start now with 20-30 new cards per day and it will be very manageable.

Your lectures will be crap content taught by consultants or researchers who can't teach. Just go for the social aspect as its good to make friends in 1st year and get into a semi decent routine. You can test the waters to find out what you can and can't skip early on.

You can find pirated step 1 stuff around but I used freemedical tube. When I used it about 18 months ago sketchy was on there. You don't need the full videos but the Pepper anki decks use sketchy images and I think they are great. I made notes in 1st year but never really used them. From the start of 2nd year I have made no notes, I've just used pre-made anki decks with some home made cards added. I would make no notes if I was you, if anything make anki cards instead of notes.

Find out how your deciles are calculated at your school and just focus on doing well on those exams.

>>11753162
I would recommend anywhere from 20-100. Anything above that and your reviews will get crazy, you're risking burnout and a day off will fuck you up. Divide the total number of cards you wanna do by the number of days until about 1 month before your exam and do that many each day. Allow the 1 month so you can just about mature the cards before exam day and you can switch to grinding question banks. Always do your reviews, if not you lose all the benefit of anki.

You can download a simulator add on for anki that will tell you how many reviews you will get per day with specific new card settings.

it's serious question time.
I really like studying and possibly doing research on the brain and the human mind but at the same time, in my clinical practice, I'd rather manage complex and less "specialized" cases and medical emergencies.
Should I go with something like psych/neuro which would let me do research in a field of study that I'm interested in but whose clinical practice I learnt to despise because too hyper-specialized on a single system or should I go with something like anesthesiology/ICU because I really like the cases and their management? Admittedly, I don't know what research opportunities anesthesia would give me; maybe I could consider a PhD later if I want to continue doing research.
I'd like to hear your opinion on the matter, guys: I have still some time to decide and hearing others pov can help

Psychotherapy "works" but not in the way we are supposed to believe it does. Basically everything about modern life is atomized, commercialized, separated, sterilized, packaged, whatever. We live in social groups totally differently than what we naturally evolved to be in. You don't have a community, a village, even a family in many cases. You don't have 6+ siblings like we used to. You don't have multi generational households like we used to. We don't have commons and other areas like we used to.

This lifestyle not only causes mental distress in certain people (again, in any population when you change the environment, a certain % of organisms cannot adapt or maladapt). But this is compounded when you basically have 1/100th the social network/social support your ancestors had. Basically, if one of your brothers was an asshole, in the past, you had 4 other brothers to hang out with. You were surrounded by uncles, aunts, cousins, if your parents were assholes. And so on. I'm sure you get the idea.

So this leads back to psychotherapy. Basically you had people you cared about and people who cared about you, instead tons of people are childless and live in showbox apartments, totally different experience than what our genes tell us life should be like. Psychotherapy simulates talking to someone who cares about you. That's all it is fundamentally.

Depends. ER is pictured to be really cool and "the first line of survival" in many situations but 90% of the times it's actually people coming in for non-emergencies and can't wait until their GP opens their office.

It is interesting considering that you do small procedures too, but it's not always that exciting as you might think it is.

Like instead of salbutamol, for a short acting B2 agonist, go for formoterol and so on. (Maybe not the best example, since salbutamol isn't prescribed that much anymore)

>Why did the coroners contradict each other?
Because autopsy is more of an art than a science. It's not like you open up the sternum and you find a note that says "the patient was murdered 100%". Arteries that were collapsed at death may be open during the autopsy or vice versa. It's hard to tell to what extent any identified pathology may have contributed to the death. Pathology itself can be hard to identify. This is why co-morbidities are usually listed. Very rarely is a 100% accurate autopsy ever actually needed.
>Was George's airway obstructed? He was still talking?
Word on the street is that his carotids were compressed which means he could still breathe but blood and oxygen wasn't getting to his brain.

After the force compressing the artery is released surely the artery would open back up and blood flow to the brain return to normal. I dont think the officer was the sole factor which caused Floyd's death

Considering his position, I doubt he died because of carotid compression. He should've been in and out of consciousness, one carotid compressed by the based police officer, the other by concrete.

All we can do is speculate, there's nothing we can say for certain until we see the actual papers, but they won't get released.

Yes, but many of them will mature once they get their first child. Being a revolutionary isn't that important once you have to look after another human being.
In general men in surgery and the top specialties are going to be right-wing, while men in the bottom specialties like psychiatry are going to be more left-wing. Women who managed to get into medicine are usually the liberal goody two-shoe type(e.g. Meadow Sopranos) and some of them are the Christian conservative type. In Europe, it is really common for doctors to do a pilgrimage of virtue signaling to a poor shithole in Africa where they will work a year so they can tell the people back home how much better they are.

The only sport i do is martial arts, and i've done it for about 12 years, and i volunteer at my church often. Is this enough to get by?

What are some activities you recommend i participate in to stand out more?

The people that say that are so fucking dumb. If we could automate the jobs of surgeons and physicians we would be able to automate almost all other jobs. At that point I imagine our ideas of 'having a job' will have changed.

I'm the romanianon. Here all you need is your Bac diploma and you're eligible. Do well on the admission exam and you're in. Proceed to survive 6 years, then 4-6 more in residency and you're a doctor.

Just like that, no research, no nothing.

They really believe it, I think they just lack experience from the medical field to understand that everything is a bit more complex than let a computer/robot do it. There is a correlation between Elon Musk fanatics, computer engineers, and a belief that everything will be automated within a generation.

>just volunteering in generally really (coaching sports, tutoring, community outreach stuff, etc)

If you're not an athlete, then something organized that shows you have interests/hobbies outside of this singular pursuit to get into medical school is good IMO. Like playing in a band or being involved in theatre or something

it doesn't mean shit that they are dead, maybe dying of unnatural causes and having non adults can skew results a bit but i didn't find any other studies that found different results.
also height is negatively correlated with lower resting heart beat rate. if heart size was proportionally scaled taller people should have same resting beat rate.
the question is about proportionality. if everything in humans scales with height proportionally then that would mean that there is no limit to how tall a person can be

What are genes?

Now, everything else aside. They do scale, and here's the logic behind it.

Taller and heavier = more muscle mass, more blood than an average person which leads to = bigger heart to pump it, bigger kidneys to filter it, larger spleen to recycle it, basically, the body needs to grow, because that's how the genes were coded to this particular individual, so it will need more growth hormones.

Now, if the person we're talking about has gigantism or something, then we can talk about lower resting heart rate because of the way the heart is positioned in their body. Taller people's hearts tend to be more vertical, thus lower pressure is applied on the ventricles which leads to a lower heart rate, it will beat more lazily.

wrong and you are missing the entire point which is proportionality.
to explain it simply a person who is 20% taller/heavier than the average person doesn't have a 20% larger liver, heart, kidney, etc. a 20% taller person can live with a 5% larger heart but it wouldn't be optimal. i know old farts that have lived 10 years with heart failure.
my guess is that organs scale unproportionally within a certain height/weight range and anything above and bellow suffers from clear problems due to size

And to state the obvious, which you have to do these days when the clear truth is so hard to bear and so easy to look away from, infant mortality is not the only metric of success and health of a population. You could hit them in the head with a hammer and have it not make a dent in infant mortality rate. This is why you rely on multiple lines of evidence not just "the numbers".

It's inconsistent what data they include year to year, but the Canadian Institute for Health Information says that on average, no. Average family med gross clinical payments in 2017-2018 was 283k, average IM was 404k that same period.

My understanding is that within IM it varies a lot. In 2015-2016, I think the last year they included some IM subspecialties in the report, IM was at 389k. GI was 515k, Cardiology was 578k.

American and Canadian system has a lot of bullshit internal rules to weed out Caribbean and non North American students.

As far as academic training and such goes, the Caribbean cirriculum is pretty much taken from US med schools and we use the same books and same system of teaching. Carribean schools vary by a huge margin on quality of education and such

But my american med school friends and I have fairly similar amount of knowledge.. expect in anatomy, they spend a lot more time on anatomy and pharm apparently in american med school

In the end if you can get decent scores in USMLE step 1 (230+) you should be able to find a spot in the residency system in US/Canada. You won’t be a hot shot neurosurgeon but you’ll be a doctor and earn good enough to live a upper middle class life

Yes. I know several people going to those offshore med schools and typically you are lower priority for residency selection. However, that won't stop you from having a good career in medicine. You'll just have a rockier start. No big deal though, you've come this far so you can definitely do it.

I think the new test is actually easier to interpret. I think the last time I took the old mcat was in 2014 and that test really hammers home esoteric factoids and a precision of reading. The new one is more open to interpretation and the right answer is more easily inferenced. For reference, I was scoring in the high 30s to low 40s on the old test.

Eh, I don't live in a city. What color? If it's black, that's not really surprising. They've been absorbed and forced into a cultural and organizational framework which doesn't suit them genetically. This is why racial homogeneity, if it can be stabilized relative to its neighbors, tends to achieve better results. Multi-culturalism is a neat bunch of trinkets and curiosities, but it's not the ideal, and it can only weaken a region over time. It cannot scale.

Med school selection process is retarded as it is and very very competitive. If you don’t get into any US school, you should try going to Caribbean and trying from there.

They are looked down upon because typically students go there when they’ve been rejected from practically every med school in the US or Canada

Plus once you do your med training outside of US, residency programs won’t see you as a priority

Avoid spicy food and dairy as much as possible. That's it mostly. Take omeprazole or any other proton pump inhibitor that your family physician or GI might prescribed along with domperidone (if you get nauseous) if possible because it doesn't have the extrapiramidal effects of metoclopramide.

If you're in doubt about the ulcer and just assume you have it, fuck you.

Oh shit, so you changed your mind, IIRC you wanted to go ob/gyn route.

Gen surg is a fine choice nonetheless, plenty of stuff to learn, will probably get easier to operate since most of the procedures are laparoscopic nowadays. The stress must be high, I'm a year below you and already feel the stress of the residency exam incoming, but after that obstacle, I can finally practice!

Stay strong, my man. Hope you do good and end up an even better surgeon!

The seeds have been broadcast. Like a history of sexual abuse, it can't be known what has taken root, and thus it should be a part of a filtration criteria.

It's a difficult call, honestly. The exact inverse, greater empathy and higher ideals (which correlate with a draw towards animation), could also make a better pediatrician.

Watching anime and browsing 4chan doesn't inherently make you a better or worse pediatrician.

Frankly people know if they want to see kids rather than adults mighty quick. If they can stand the sound of 10 babies in the nursery simultaneously crying and pooping then pediatrics is probably their calling.

I chose pediatrics because most of the time kids get better on their own and they don't have the baggage of chronic medical conditions. Easy peasy medication reconciliations haha.

Is high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, etc anything to be "managed"? These seem to be "cure" scenarios. Blood pressure is regulated by the body itself, so it's just a matter of fixing the dysfunctional regulation. Type 2 diabetes is dietary, exercise, occasionally mediated by environmental toxicity.

People who aren't going to change their lifestyle should just be abandoned. There should be a refusal to treat.

Nope. 100% serious. There is no reason to believe in "high blood pressure" when it's repeatedly redefined every few years and only correlates with disease. Same with high cholesterol. The medications themselves, like statins, beta blockers, ACE2 inhibitors, cause more diseases than the disease itself.

The brain is literally made of fucking cholesterol. All of your stress hormones are made of cholesterol. The blood vessels are supposed to be coated with cholesterol. If there is truly a "Wrong ratio" or "wrong type" of cholesterol, that's the actual pathology to be corrected, not the absolute levels.

>>11762745
Of course I'm not. I wanted to be a doctor when I was a child, but actually experiencing the medical system, and seeing it eg in the way you just described, turned me off of it permanently. It's a business not unlike a church, or even more unfortunately ins ome cases, a crooked mechanic. Though I'm not sure the physician is really aware of what he's doing.

The ancient Chinese system may be a better replacement. Every "patient" pays a small amount at a set interval, and they stop paying when they get sick. Payment only resumes when they're well again. If they're getting sick repeatedly or not getting well, obviously, they find another doctor.

And to clarify, the significance of this is if the body is self regulating, which given that it assembled itself from scratch and has kept you alive automatically your entire life with minimal intelligent input, it clearly is to a great degree, then one can expect an elevation of circulating cholesterol either has to do with a chronic stress response or in some cases more specifically oxidative and nitrosative stress.

The analogy you're drawing is not 1:1. The dietary role of different lipids is more complex, though a lot of the complexity may not be all that relevant either. eg intake of saturated fats upregulate lipolysis and are in general thermogenic. They bias the body towards fat burning, and therefore, can be a net fat reduction.

Incorporating lard into a meal with protein and a reasonable amount of carbohydrates (though some say they shouldn't be mixed) will net reduce weight compared to the same type of diet minus the fat.

Dunning Kruger effect in action here.

Doctors are not miracle workers. A lot of medical conditions do come down to how someone takes care of him/herself. That said, we treat with medications to prevent complications.

High blood pressure is a condition that can predispose a person to fatal health conditions like coronary artery disease, stroke, heart failure. When doctors treat, they reduce the risk of such conditions appearing. Same with diabetes.

All medications have side effects.
Doctors weigh the risks and benefits every time they prescribe.
Clonidine for your Grandma's high blood pressure has a lot of benefits and a lot less risks.
Side effects include bradycardia, hypotension, and CNS depression. The doctor titrates the right dose to minimize the side effects.
Similar story with Metformin and type 2 Diabetes.

The degenerative effects of statins are well known, as is their ironic relationship with stroke. Similar can be said for the side effects of all the others.

Basically, the gist of the idea is, the body is doing what it's doing in response to something. You may get it to stop doing that by blocking the line of communication required, or otherwise masking the high level symptom, but it won't put out the underlying fire. It just reduces the smoke.

So there are two aspects:
-Effects of the added drug
-Continued progression of the underlying pathophysiology which has not been stopped, but masked.
