    As always, THE BEST youtuber in the history of RUclips!!! Whatta G!!! I have a question tho, I bought a MacBook Pro instead of an iPad, so Im printing every single lecture slide and write my notes on them and from the pre-recorded lectures; I have over a 150 pages just for anatomy and its only my first year! Do you recommend getting an iPad or just continue paper notes (my personal fav)?
    Lots of love Dr!

    Things I wish I knew at before med school
    - people will clap after every lecture
    - I should have spent way more time enjoying uni than I did
    - I should have spent more time developing my hobbies
    - better ways to revise than reading the textbook and making lots of notes
    - probably didn't need to go to as many lectures and lol taking pictures is probably not necessary

    What actually is the big deal with graduating as a doctor but with a low score or whatever it is you're given? I'm guessing that means you've got less chances of getting a job innit? But apart from that why do people make it sound like a big deal to graduate in the top 5-10% if you're all doctors at the end of the day?

    • @ThatMedic

      It’s more to do with the ranking system and being able to get the job you want in the location you want. (Ranking doesn’t usually correlate with clinical excellence)

    Something I've noticed from watching RUclips videos of American medical students is that a lot of them opt to download lecture notes/powerpoints and just learn them at home, rather than attending lectures. Is that common in the UK, as well, or do most medical students attend all of their lectures?

    Hi
    Thanks for great content!
    I don't know if this is controversial or maybe something that hasn't played a big role in your studies, but have you faced any problems based on your ethnicity? Background or religion?
    Moreover do you think it is an advantage to have God with you while working? Does it affect your view on life, medicine, patients and you being a doctor?
    Looking forward to seeing more videoes from you!
