    Oooh please do more student food videos I always need advice. 👏🏼 Do you find now as a trainee Doctor that all your family and friends ask you questions about medical conditions? I’m a trainee dental nurse and now I get so many questions about friend’s teeth problems 🙈🤣

    Thanks - a really informative video. If you do another one like this, I think an important question would circle around achievement expectations. All med students are top achievers prior to med school - that's why they got accepted! But how does a med student handle going from being at the top of the class to perhaps a middle or lower third student, with maybe a failure here and there? How would you recommend students come to grips with this eventuality?

      This is a very true comment, a lot of medical student do struggle with this, as I did. I think what immensely helped me was putting into perspective that all medical student are the top of the class and your now comparing only to very high academic achievers, it doesn't make you any less clever just your comparisons are now all so much higher. I love the quote "If you're the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong room" being around very clever people can actually push you further and help you learn if you don't put your own capability down.

    Hi Anna! I’m starting med school at Buckingham in Jan 2023. Super excited to move to England for the first time. I was wondering if you think I should do a meal service like Hello Fresh or do a food shop weekly/biweekly? And one more question, should I start learning subjects and making notes now or can I wait until the course starts? 😅

    • @annarebecca
      @annarebecca  2 года назад +1

      Hey Jodi, thats so exciting your starting at medical school! I think it depends, meal services can be fab, especially to start with. I personally don’t but just plan all my meal & do the whole shop on a Sunday. I wouldn’t start yet, enjoy the time now to really relax before you begin. There’s just going to be so so much to learn that anything you do now wont really make much difference. The only thing I found really helpful before I started was planning & looking into a few different note taking & new revision methods. I have quite a few videos on my channel that I think will help including this one: ruclips.net/video/FZ6w2DfB6Os/видео.html ruclips.net/video/IOkr4FqEbws/видео.html hope that helps good luck and let me know if you ever have any more questions ❤️ xxx

    Hi Anna, thank you for your videos I always find them very informative! I'm a first year MD student in Ontario, Canada. I use Anki religiously but am finding it difficult to balance my studies and my personal life as I spend about 3 hrs a day with Anki. Do you have any advice on how to keep things in balance?
    Thanks again!

    • @annarebecca
      @annarebecca  2 года назад +1

      Hi Kevin, I'm so happy they're helpful! I had the same problem with anki doing it everyday and found it very hard to manage. So now outside of exam season I don't actually study the cards only create them to revise from. Then nearer the exams but still a good distance away I only add a few new cards a day to start with and build it up as the exam date gets closer. I just find this way more manageable right now, but different techniques work for everyone!

    Hi Anna, do you have an estimate walking distance for accommodation in selly oak to medical school

    • @annarebecca
      @annarebecca  2 года назад +1

      about 15-20mins depending on where about you are

    Do you still have to study anatomy and have anatomy lectures in 3rd year?

    • @annarebecca
      @annarebecca  2 года назад

      not really, its still important to integrate into clinical content and to help with understanding the conditions, but we don't have many set lectures or an anatomy only exam

    Are the Birmingham anatomy exams really hard and weirdly worded?

    • @annarebecca
      @annarebecca  2 года назад

      I would say yes 😂 a lot of our anatomy is tested through essays which is an ‘interesting’ way of doing it. Then we have a big prosec exam where you have to name the parts of real specimens which is really hard. But its all manageable!
