  • In this video I discuss two key principles to studying in medical school. It is very difficult to learn and retain the amount of information that we are required to but implementing these two strategies in you study routines will surely help.
    These principles apply to all learners, and I wish I knew of them as a premedical student to incorporate in undergrad. So be better than me and start emphasizing these principles early!

    Omg, how did you get into Mayo Clinic? I’m currently a senior, and I want to go to U of M Rochester for my bachelors, and my dream med school is Mayo Clinic. I really want to be a doctor!! What do you think singled you out to Mayo Clinic?

    • @EvolvingMedic
      @EvolvingMedic  4 года назад

      Your early interest in medicine and in Mayo is great to hear! I think the biggest thing Mayo looks for is someone with a sincere and innate passion for putting patients first. They look for someone who genuinely believes the needs of the patient should always come first.
      Embracing this, as well as doing all the bookkeeping things like a good MCAT score, good GPA, medical experience as a premed etc., will give you a great shot! Always feel free to reach out with any questions you come across along your premed journey!

    • @EvolvingMedic

      The main question banks that a lot of people use are either AMBOSS or Lecturio. They can be pricey (especially AMBOSS). But there are certain resources specific for certain classes. Like Gray’s Anatomy and Lippincott’s are great resources for anatomy questions.
      I am actually going to partner with Lecturio in an upcoming video to give student 30% off so that may be something you could find helpful!

    I have a question. I am in my first year of medical school (in my country, we have 6 years of medical school, the first 2 are preclinical years and the next 4 are clinical years; you get into medical school right after highschool, after you pass an entry exam) and I study a lot of anatomy, biochemistry, physiology etc. I used Anki in highschool, for the entry exam and at the beginning of the year, but I found I was VERY behind with lectures because it was extremely time consuming to make flashcards and study them daily, I had a lot of them because I tried to incorporate all the important stuff and as many details as possible. I don't think I can find premade decks that match my bibliography (unfortunately, my teachers are very picky and really want you to study from specific books). How can I use Anki, or review my material (which I am sure you know it's a lot) on a regular basis without getting too behind, having time to study new material and having some time for myself as well?

    • @EvolvingMedic
      @EvolvingMedic  2 года назад

      It’s really hard when there aren’t premade decks available, but finding ways to make the prices of creating cards as efficiently as possible can help (i.e. having two windows up, one of which is Anki and the other your lecture slides, and then just copying and pasting as you go through the lecture slides). Alternatively, you can team up with a few classmates who also want to create cards and split up the work. And I’d there are upperclassman who already made cards for your classes you can always ask them.
      I hope this helps!

I actually took organic chemistry 1 and 2 over the summer and I thought it was a great to take some of the harder courses over the summer where I could just focus on those! I think the best things to do in the summer as a pre-med are taking premed courses, exploring research in some way, or getting some form of medical experience (like shadowing, scribing, community service, etc.).

    got any tips on studying anatomy?

    • @EvolvingMedic
      @EvolvingMedic  3 года назад +1

      Anatomy is definitely one of the toughest blocks in medical (but still my favorite so far lol). I think the most important thing is keeping up with your reviews. Whether you use Anki, or another tool, continue to review the material from week 1 when you’re on week 6. For example, it’s so easy to forget things from the pelvis when you’re studying the head/neck. And trying to remember all it the week of your final will be stressful and probably unsuccessful. The other tip I have, is to pick one outside resource and stick to it. It can be Kenhub, The Noted Anatomist (youtube), or anything else. But find one that you really like, and stick with it throughout the block. It’s easy to fall into a rabbit hole of anatomy resources and that will impact your productivity. I hope this helps!
