Hi everyone! I’m back after completely abandoning my blog and study accounts 😭
I graduated from my bachelors program with honours and distinction last year! I’m now in the process of applying for my masters in medical science
I’m going to be posting about my application process and journey !
Oh my gosh I just read your post about the proctoring system and you’re so right! It’s crazy how sensitive these programs are to the point where you can’t even look in a different direction without getting flagged
Right!! It’s so frustrating because they tell you not to look away from the camera yet all the questions are left oriented so you have to?? And people usually look to the side or up when they’re trying to remember things so it’s very unfair I think
The amount of people who got accused of cheating in my program last semester when they had full proof they weren’t is mind boggling
How do you prep for the new semester? 🍋🍬
——
I start my first real job (in a hospital!!) at the end of this week and then school starts on Monday 🥲 I’m a bit nervous for both of them but I’m hoping I can pull through and do well.
I got my grades for 1st semester and my GPA hasn’t changed much, which is neither good nor bad. My goal this semester is to work harder and get the grades I know I can achieve!
Happy new year loves 🍋🍬 here’s to another one of studying hard and growing into our futures 💛
First tiktok 👀
One of the fatal flaws of Covid putting classes online is the proctoring systems. There’s been a spike in academic dishonesty accusations on friends who I know would never cheat. The camera quality is horrible, the systems cut the videos down and put the blame on the students, and it’s unreliable. It ignores the fact that students are human and can’t stay 100% still. Profs are claiming the system will flag you if you even stop eye contact for one second. They’re risking the future academic career of hardworking students while ignoring the people who have blatantly been cheating since the beginning.
I just had to buy a security camera to put near my desk because I’m autistic and need to stim while I do tests or I’ll meltdown. I’m going to have to keep myself on camera at two different angles to avoid being punished for simply looking at my keyboard or fidgeting a little. This is so dehumanizing and I know it’s important to uphold academic integrity but it’s also important to remember students are human and can’t be expected to sit absolutely still and stare directly at a camera for 75 minutes while we’re supposed to be answering questions, especially those of us who are neurodivergent.
“Just try to stay still” or maybe don’t force your neurodivergent students to conform to a damaging rule that is hard enough for neurotypicals to follow?

Most bang-for-buck things every intern should know before starting inpatient wards
Source. A collection of Meddit resources and advice on what bread-and-butter topics interns would most benefit from brushing up on/memorizing prior to the beginning of their internship. 1) Fluids. How and when to use them, dosage, timing and other pearls.
Review of fluids (not how to use them per se) by Dr. Strong /u/ericstrong
Maintenance Intravenous Fluids in Acutely Ill Patients - NEJM.
Pretty thorough review of fluid management on openanesthesia.org
2) Nausea. When to treat, how to treat and at what dose.
3) Standard pn orders: pain killers, sleep aids and antiemetics aka how to reduce nighttime calls from nurses by 25%
4) “Reflex” antibiotic choice for routine inpatient infections.
http://www.bpac.org.nz/Supplement/2013/July/antibiotics-guide.aspx /u/ChristianM and /u/ive_been_up_allnight
5) Initial work-up and treatment of dyspnea. (more realistic to approach by symptoms as, unfortunately, you first have to diagnose whats wrong. E.g. heart failure, pulmonary edema, embolism, COPD, pneumonia).
6) Initial work-up and treatment of oliguria/anuria.
7) A sensible initial approach to suspected ileus.
8) Blood. When, how, why to replace.
9) Pain. Optimal management without inducing narcosis.
Managing cancer pain: Frequently asked questions: CCJM
10) Potassium. When, why and how to shift or replace.
A review on both potassium and sodium disorders by Dr. Strong /u/ericstrong (Not reposted in 12) hyponatremia but applies there as well) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYojB5NEEakXVIAapcSEleP4doUdHVtld
11) Hyponatremia. Most common electrolyte disturbance, commonly mismanaged.
12) Resuscitation aka commit the ACLS algorithms to memory.
Current ACLS guidelines. https://www.acls.net/aclsalg.htm
Would love a video series, interactive cases etc.
13) Basic EKG interpretation.
Whole EKG video courses
A whole free youtube EKG video review course by meddit’s own u/ericstrong
An alternative EKG course that takes you through all the basics. This however has no free version and costs 96$ a year. The quality is amazing. Here are 6 basic sample videos on youtube. The paid course is available on http://www.ecgteacher.com/
I have to admit I haven’t used this course personally but his free youtube videos are on-point and he seems like a good teacher. Also behind paywall. Free youtube samples are here. The full course can be found here https://www.ecgacademy.com.
EKG video cases
Amazing case-of-the-week emergency medicine EKG videos on youtube by Dr. Amal Mattu
– If you like Dr. Mattu’s cases (and you most certainly will) he is still posting every single week on his new site https://ecgweekly.com. It costs 4 starbucks coffees a year and is going to save someones life.
Practice EKGs with answers
Watching videos isn’t enough, you still have to grind out EKGs to keep your game strong. Visit http://ecgmadesimple.com and http://ecg.bidmc.harvard.edu/maven/mavenmain.asp for this.
EKG blogs
I recommend signing up for some kind of RSS feed (e.g. https://feedly.com/) and subscribing to the following EKG blogs:
http://hqmeded-ecg.blogspot.is (Dr. Smiths ECG blog)
http://www.ems12lead.com
http://ecg-interpretation.blogspot.is
http://jhcedecg.blogspot.is
EKG resource libraries
Life in the fastlane has a nice resource to look up a specific EKG finding, criteria or concept.
http://www.practicalclinicalskills.com/ekg.aspx /u/collidge
14) Know when to order ABGs and how to interpret them.
Almost too detailed video lecture series on ABGs and how to interpret them by Dr. Eric Strong (/u/ericstrong)
Practice makes perfect. ABG interpretation generator. https://abg.ninja/abg
Bonus 15) Basic CXR interpretation
CXR video lecture course
Again, Dr. Eric Strong has an excellent video course for free on youtube
Step-by-step guides to basic CXR interpretation
The Radiology Assistant: Chest X-ray - Basic interpretation
Radiology Masterclass step-by-step basic CXR
University of Virginia’s step-by-step basic CXR
All inclusive resources
The art and science of thoracic imaging All inclusive resource for all things thoracic! Jokes aside amazing resource.
UPenns CXR learning website
Loyola Universities excellent CXR Atlas Most outdated look but amazing content.
Checklist approach to CXR
Bonus 16) Overnight o-shit-what’s-that Head CT interpretation
Midnight radiology: Emergency CT of the head
University of Virginia’s guide to the Head CT
Hey, self: review before NCLEX. Xo, me.
Oh hell yes
For future reference.
Must. Study.
Scheduled to post right before intern year starts. Gulp.
Reblog to save a life. You got this, bbs.
we need it all
reblogging this for my future self. you welcome.
Things I routinely forget and scramble to relearn.
Need this since I’m finally about to be an intern!
Here I come, internship
Ooof someone come take over my panel
reposting for newbies! can’t believe i’m almost a pgy2!
This is about Sci-Hub. yeah we get it.. gatekeep knowledge and protect the interests of capital…
Listen, this is serious.
Do not use the website called Sci-Hub!
It lets people access scientific articles for free. This is dangerous. It helps the free flow of knowledge and reduces the competitive edge of all the people who worked really hard to have been born into a wealth.
Like, it’s literally a website where you can type in the DOI of an article and read it, without ever having to pay the publisher who exploited the author.
So, again, do not, under any circumstance, use Sci-Hub. I mean, can you imagine a world where knowledge is free and easily accessible to everyone? Even, y'know, poor people?
Libgen also has many books online, including textbooks, searchable by name, author, and ISBN. Can you imagine textbook companies not getting their hard-earned income from poor college students? Here is the link just so you make sure that you never accidentally stumble across this horrible, unethical website.
Oh, and while we’re talking about books, if you’ve managed to stay clear from Libgen, definitely don’t go to zlibrary, where you can also find a lot of textbooks, but unfortunately they’re completely free.
managing your time is something v v important! especially now that we're all at home, it's really easy for us (or for me, at least) to lose track of time. with this, here are some of the time management techniques i've tried including what worked and what didn't!

… and here is a gift for all of us.
self discipline tips
here are tips I discovered very recently:
something is better than nothing. 5 minutes of work are better than zero. Just because you missed something on your schedule doesn’t mean you can’t still work on it, even for 5 minutes. Grow and build on this.
second drafts / reviews can be done after.
Don’t think you are going to do your very best work on the first try. Take the weight of perfectionism off your shoulders.
don’t think about doing it. just do it as fast as you can.
build on your productivity, not your failures.
If you come from a past of procrastinating and now feel motivated to change and discipline yourself, do NOT try to do everything at once.
if you have a set of different goals to accomplish, begin with the most important one. Wait until the rotine of working for that one settles in (you feel productive and comfortable-ish), and then begin with the next. Repeat.
this way you’ll be building your way up and not juggling everything at the same time, hoping everything works out.
be patient with yourself, you’ll get there!
set smaller deadlines for your goals
have monthly and weekly-ish deadlines
e.g. if you are doing a project, due 22nd Feb, set personal deadlines, like have Introduction written by 2nd Feb, have Methods written by 10th Feb, have project complete by 18th Feb.
take them as seriously as you possibly can, don’t miss out on yourself.
write realistic daily tasks and don’t stop until you finish them. after them you can do whatever you want
on writing realistic daily tasks, the secret is knowing you can only do so much in one day, but trusting you can accomplish everything in the course of any period of time (a week, or 2 weeks or a month, etc.) because you will combine the work from all these different days.
it’s very tempting to write down all the tasks you need to accomplish in one day to just get over with it, but the real deal is you won’t accomplish half of them. You’ll feel very unproductive then, wich leads to demotivation.
spread daily tasks in the time necessary.
have a consistent sleep schedule.
if your mind isn’t ready everything will fall apart.
have one rest day per week where you plan nothing, do whatever you want except studying. this can be harder than you expect!
(don’t forget these are effective only if you actually put them into practice! good luck babes!!)
