How To Cover Everything For Medical Exams
Thank you so much , I didn't know u had yt channel or great website , I use all of ur books & i use them exactly like u said like a quick overview.
Finally I found a video that is exactly tailored to me!! I am the definitely the perfectionist student and I spend so much time revising one topic ( one case- cause my med school is cased based) and by the time I revised the next case, I forget most of the 1st case and never finding time to get back to my previous cases. Let alone being so demotivated after having studied so much and forgetting so much!! I will definitely start applying this method- this looks so much more manageable and something I can retain the information!!
I've watched this three times now, and after each time i watch, i apply something new to my study routine, thank you so much.
Cool!
I have just 2 days to cover 16 chapters approx so no spaced repition any othe way?
You can space out repetitions of very key facts you want to remember in a single day. However, you may be best just resting at this point so that you are fresh on the exam day. Hope it goes well!
Thanks man!!!!please make more long form videos like this on studying
Awesome, will do!
In our undergrad exams, we need to write long answer questions (essay) .We have got a list of subtopics that we are tested for example in Lung Pathology we have got sub topics like lung tumors, pneumonia etc. Now to memorize one long answer it takes like 45 mins to 1 hr in this way we can only do like 4 sub topics in 3hrs and the TOPIC takes longer time even days to complete. Doing recall by writing the answer again and again takes a lot of time and we also get bored of doing the same thing, What would be your suggestion to such exams in which we need to write long essays?
thanks for the lesson sir
Great video 🥰 i was looking for something like that cause my learning memory about a topic comes to 10%😅 from 100% within a quarter of a year
This video is pure gold! Thank you!!
What a fantastic video, Doc. Quick question. How would you create a study schedule or how would you organize your study sessions for an exam like the USMLE ? Also, how many study sessions would you suggest on doing per day ?
Hi. Use a tracking tool / table to organise the study sessions. 1-2 study sessions per day, maximum 3.
Doc great video …. Instead of the tracking it manually could Anki be used for the spacing effect
@@reacy1280 Anki only does questions, it doesn't involve actually studying the topic. Just doing questions with Anki is a bit limited - it will help you memorise facts, but won't give you a deep understanding of the material.
@@TomWatchman converting words to images ( real one ) like if someone said youtube we need to imagine real youtube and vedios running , categories etc in a glance multi senses same with server we need to use multi senses and association and redical thinking which means thinking more fun and joy and mostly focus on understanding of topic ...
Anki 😝
So much good information
كن فيكون
احب الامتحانات
اكرررررره الامتحانااااااااات
Thank you very much
This is a legendary lecture thank you for everything ❤🎉
Thanks a lot that was very comprehensive!!
Glad it was helpful!
thanks man!!!
Glad to help!
Great video
Thanks!
This was awesome 🙌
Great to hear!
UR MY BESTEST FRIEND
U RLLY DO TAKE ME FROM ZERO TO FINALS
I LOVE YOU DOC TOM U DONT EVEN UNDERSTAND
Tom, I am much older than you, and your videos, Podcasts, Flashcards, and the methods you are putting out are an inspiration to me. Please keep it up, you are making learning medicine more accessable and logical Thank you
Great to hear, thanks!
Thank you ❤
Thank you for helping me to understand the Rumsfeld Matrix within the context of 'Preparation for Competitive exams'.
I appreciate how your advice makes sense and there was never a point when listening to you that I felt like I was being "horse manured" I'ma run with you🫂
😄
Thank you, Tom, I really needed this!
Great advice. Thanks so much Tom
It would be great if you could do a video on how to test yourself. Where to find or produce your own short answer questions and mcq’s.
Will add it to the list, thanks. You could check out the questions I build for this purpose at members.zerotofinals.com!
i really have problems when it comes reading i am actually not a cramming type God bless
Why i didn't know this information before. Thanks
how do you use this when you are trying to cover all the topics in each section, for example, we need to cover surgery, cardiology and etc and perhaps they are 10 in total and they each have 10 topics to cover, how can i use this method to cover all the materials?
Hi. You can just create a bigger spreadsheet. Instead of cardiology, general surgery, respiratory etc, you could have cardiovascular disease, acute coronary syndrome, angina, arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation etc.
Thanks a lot
Happy to help
Is there a 2nd edition of surgery book coming soon? I am hesitant to buy the first edition
Probably not for 3 years (that would be my best guess)
@@TomWatchman Thanks for the reply. Why can’t I order your physical Flashcards to Germany?
@@mezomoza7 Really sorry, we don't ship internationally 😟
@@TomWatchman Hopefully like the books they become available on Amazon soon. Keep the great work up. Thanks a lot.
@@mezomoza7 Thanks, will do
Big fan .Sir .
Awesome, thank you Tom for sharing this ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks ☺
Thanks, Tom that was extremely helpful. I am a second-year med student and last year your advice helped me smash my exams. I finished the year among the top 5 in my class. I’ve watched all your videos more than twice. You changed my college journey❤. Question: where can I find your book Medicine Guide?
Great to hear it helped! It is great to hear you smashed your exam, nice work, very impressive! The books are found at zerotofinals.com/books and the course is at members.zerotofinals.com. Keep up your great work!
I was thinking about the sandwich method just today and then your notification popped up .. thank u
I hope the sandwich technique is catching on!
Awesome teacher❤❤❤❤❤. God bless you fr teaching and sharing 👍👍👍
You are so welcome
What a hunk ❤
haha!
Genuinely the best advice I've seen for finals! Thank you!!
That is great to hear, thanks! More videos coming soon.
I want to ask shall I apply this rule in mrcp exam? Like what if I try to get every unit daily instead of of one unit at a time?
absolutely! the same strategies apply to any medical exam. spaced repetitions of the content is optimal - meaning spacing the times you go through to content out (e.g., review the same content after 48 hours ,then after 1 week then after 3 weeks and so on)
Thank you Tom for creating such an amazing content in precise manner
Glad you like them!
God bless you sir , you have saved me a lot sir❤❤❤❤❤
Hey Tom How do I become less paranoid about not knowing enough and this fear that I might harm patients in the future because I’m not memorizing textbooks or anything my of that sort and I’m just pushing by and trying to retain the most important knowledge for exams :(
Hi. I think a big part of it is accepting that you will never know everything and being aware of the gaps in your knowledge (including being aware that there are many things you will not even known that you don't know). Not everything falls on one person - the system should be set up so that you are always able to take the time needed to find out the answers or to call on someone with the necessary skills to help. Even the most experienced and knowledgable doctors will have gaps in their knowledge.
Tysm for replying and for everything you do I really appreciate it 🥹💗@@TomWatchman
Really excellent and clearly explained. I'll take this on board myself, e.g. for any future job interview preparation. But it will also be invaluable advice for my secondary school son. I've been enjoying listening to your full playlist on how to learn this morning.
thanks! that is encouraging to hear. more coming soon...
Thanks this helped
Thank you so much.
