You should do emergency medicine in Cape Town! The overnight shifts are insaneeee!! 16h fly by and you've treated 30 stabbings, gunshot wounds, cardiac arrests, road traffic accidents. Best time of medical school in my experience!!
a premed student planning to study medicine after. thank you for being such an inspiration for those who are planning to go to med school. goodluck on your career! ♥
I am a nurse in a surgical/trauma ICU at a teaching hospital and I work with medical students frequently. I enjoy seeing life from your perspective. I do try being kind to them too!! Thanks for the videos.
Jamie, not only are your vlogs extremely aesthetically pleasing, they are also very informative! Thank you for giving a pre-med student some insight into the every-days of the career :)
Hi. I just wanted to say that I really appreciate how you put the explanations for medical terms and such on screen in the video. I'm studying medical lab science, and I find it really interesting to see what a medical student's life is like. Thanks for making awesome and inspirational videos. I hope you're having a great day :)
I work as a scribe in the ED and I can tell you my overnight shifts are very similar! I live in a small town, nothing like New York, yet there is always a steady stream of patients around 11pm-3am. After 4am things start slowing down and I start getting sleepy😴 Then I get home at 7am and sleep until 3pm. Great video!
Krishna Patel its more realistic , studies are hard , the quantity of infos is limitless no matter how hard you work you ll never know everything , death is just next door taking people for futile mistakes ... and as for romance there s no time for that haha
I’m happy your chose being an ER Physician. I live working in this dept. because of all the new challenges I face and have to deal with!! It’s def. tiresome but makes you happy when you’re able to put a smile back on a patients face!
I want to be a pediatric nurse and watching you inspires me everyday! In HS (2 more years!) I am taking health science 1 and 2 and then 11-12th grade is nursing assisting where we learn blood pressure, how to check and pulse etc. ANYHOOO yah hope you like this comment and love yah stay positive❤️😍
Can't believe you still have energy to go to the gym.. after a night shift I literally fall asleep till night and rest the whole day for the next night shift.
you are an inspiration for me. your videos gives me hope and joy that I am struggling in my 3rd year pre -med right now. hopefully, I'll meet you soon. 💕💕💕
Im so committed to you vlogs and im absolutely love how you put the definitions of what your talking about. How you clarify everything is awesome and it gives me a way to get what your saying please keep doing that !!
If you're on a budget or need a temporary solution for sleeping during the day, taping aluminum foil to your windows is a great alternative to black out curtains.
Omg I just finished shadowing a PA night shift in the Emergancy department ortho team, it was so fun! The ortho team supply room looks like a handy mans work shop. Tractions are fun just because we tell the patient "we are going to do this quick procedure to help your pain" (which is actually true) and they are like "YESS PLEASE!!!" then they see the tools (drills, 12in nails, a massive nail cutter, rods) and they are like "tha f*%
Love your videos! I recommend getting some soft ear plugs if noise is an issue when you're trying to sleep! I watched that documentary recently, too! Definitely a weirdly, intriguing case
How do you take care of your cat whenever you have 24-36 hr duty shifts? I am thinking of taking a pet but I am scared to leave it alone when doing long shifts in the future. Btw, I live alone in a dorm that is why. Love your vlogs!!
fishiav cats are like really self sufficient. Give them enough food and water for the time you'll be gone and they'll be fine. I leave mine for a weekend at a time and they're great :)
justhere forthecomments thank you ! But I am also afraid it might make a mess around the house lol or find ways to leave.. I had a cat before that was able to escape the house 😭 and she came back pregnant LOL 😂😂😂
Hey hey! I'm a final year med student but u give me so much inspiration. I love your vlogs too. Wish mine could be cool like urs. Lol. All the best on ur journey
Jamie! I got accepted to med school (here in Poland where I live), I was watching your videos during studying to my exams and I wanna thank you from the bottom of my heart, you are doing great job. I've got a question: What should I pick - harder school, where my parents have a small apartment near it, or a bit less tough school in the city I've never been to, but I heard about great atmosphere there?
antonio ferreira specialization depends on the exam you take after med school, every med student takes the same exam. I''m more into the harder one because it is still manageable and people can be mean in every school. Good luck!
raspberry cat i think harder because in medicine that maybe wouldnt be that difficult as people say, maybe is harder but you have a better quality education and you will have a house near to stay, is a plus.
Hi! Could you do a video on extracurricular activities as a premed? Prioritizing research, shadowing, volunteering, etc and how much of which we should do to be competitive applicants. Thanks!
I *thoroughly* enjoy your videos! Quick question! How do you manage non-typical sleep/wake cycles? Do you take any stimulants or sleep-aids to help you stay at your best? If I don't get at least 7hrs of sleep I feel super slow & almost useless! Thanks again & keep the videos coming :)!!
I suffer from AIP ( auto immune pancreatitis) and go to the ER/hospital more than I would like to admit (8x In last 6 months), would I be classified as urgent or non urgent? Thanks for your vlogs their great! 👍🏼
honestly as much as I love watching these vlogs, it breaks my heart at the same time. My mother wants me to persue finance but I'm more interested in dealing with people than money. I wish I had the balls to tell her what I want to do, I'm afraid of disappointing her or seeming confused with my life because I hadn't said anything about it(my parents are clueless I want to persue medicine). Someone give me advice on what to do. Sorry for the long comment. I love your videos Jamie, sending love from Africa xx
Chase your dreams. You only have one life and at the end of the day you want to be happy. They are both very great careers. If they are upset they will eventually get over it when they see how happy and successful you are!
Super interesting and informative video! You always make me more excited for my med school journey and totally inspired me to start vlogging about it!!! I just bought my first camera a few days ago eeeeek... Lets hope this works out
I was thinking about doing an ER elective, but I wanted to know what it was like first. Will you be able to do a shift in the emergent/acute side of the department? Or are you only allowed to be in the non-emergent side?
I really enjoy watching your videos! Can you please consider having those pop ups on the screen not make a sound or as loud of a sound when they pop up? It's disorienting/annoying. Thank you

+a w yay! Thanks for watching 😊
Jamie, not only are your vlogs extremely aesthetically pleasing, they are also very informative! Thank you for giving a pre-med student some insight into the every-days of the career :)
I work overnight shifts at a hospital and buying a blackout curtain was the BEST thing to help me sleep during the day. Love it!
I love how you add notes throughout the video! It's extremely beneficial. I appreciate you so much, Jamie! :)

These vlogs always make me think of Grey's Anatomy ☺️
Meredith Grey oh hey meredith
Grey s anatomy is such a lie 😂😂😂it has nothing to do with medicine
There is a book called Grey's Anatomy
Krishna Patel yes im a 5th year 😁
Krishna Patel its more realistic , studies are hard , the quantity of infos is limitless no matter how hard you work you ll never know everything , death is just next door taking people for futile mistakes ... and as for romance there s no time for that haha

I want to be a pediatric nurse and watching you inspires me everyday! In HS (2 more years!) I am taking health science 1 and 2 and then 11-12th grade is nursing assisting where we learn blood pressure, how to check and pulse etc. ANYHOOO yah hope you like this comment and love yah stay positive❤️😍
Ooooh! That feeling, when you are drinking tea and just watching Jamie's videos on Sunday morning to get ready for a day...
Awesome Job! You guys get so much more responsibility over in the states, ive never had a full day unsupervised and i'm a doctor now lol....
you know you're into it when you like the video and you haven't even watched the video yet. love this💖
Can't believe you still have energy to go to the gym.. after a night shift I literally fall asleep till night and rest the whole day for the next night shift.
oh yeah always a steady stream of patients overnight... how long are your shifts?? we usually did 8 hour emerge shifts in med school!
Jamie!!You really motivated me through my MCAT studies, although I didn't succeed getting into med school! Lots of love xo :'/
your videos always make me study and remember my objective thank you!!! so much much love for you sister
I love your videos so much! I usually don't comment, but I literally was like "YES!" when I saw that you had uploaded. I need to turn notifications on
you are an inspiration for me. your videos gives me hope and joy that I am struggling in my 3rd year pre -med right now. hopefully, I'll meet you soon. 💕💕💕
Im so committed to you vlogs and im absolutely love how you put the definitions of what your talking about. How you clarify everything is awesome and it gives me a way to get what your saying please keep doing that !!
Get some black out shades. My dad and brother both work as psyc techs through the night and have to sleep during the day. Changed the game for them!
Fan here a 3rd year med student too from Philippines
I think I learn more from your videos than I refrained from school
Great video. You should do more vlogs like these. Love your channel, very inspirational.
Thanks Victoria! Will definitely try to make more of these :)
Jamie you’re killing me have some fun!
I love watching your videos. They remind me how much I want to get into medical school :) Thank you!
Every time I watch your vlogs I always commend you for the time you put in coz adding those pop ups must take timeee! But I'm grateful for them lol
If you're on a budget or need a temporary solution for sleeping during the day, taping aluminum foil to your windows is a great alternative to black out curtains.
I've missed your vlogs so much, please keep posting them!
You're such an inspiration.
Like, you make me strive to be like you...
You're just amazing keep the amazing videos!

How do you take care of your cat whenever you have 24-36 hr duty shifts? I am thinking of taking a pet but I am scared to leave it alone when doing long shifts in the future. Btw, I live alone in a dorm that is why. Love your vlogs!!
Your dorm allows pets? So lucky !! :D
Urša Debenjak well actually my dorm is more like a studio type apartment so we are more or less free to do what we like 😊
fishiav cats are like really self sufficient. Give them enough food and water for the time you'll be gone and they'll be fine. I leave mine for a weekend at a time and they're great :)
justhere forthecomments thank you ! But I am also afraid it might make a mess around the house lol or find ways to leave.. I had a cat before that was able to escape the house 😭 and she came back pregnant LOL 😂😂😂
Amazing video Jamie as always!! I love your patience with the hospital and your courage !!! :)
I love your vlogs so much :D I am going to be starting med school in a few weeks and these vlogs just bring me so much motivation and so much joy.

+Loretta Lee thank you for your kind words!
Joe Bonus I can’t imagine any parent being disappointed with a kid who wants to be a doctor!
It's not like you want to start a band or something lol. Even if they didn't think about it or might have doubt I bet it's going to be okay
Super interesting and informative video! You always make me more excited for my med school journey and totally inspired me to start vlogging about it!!! I just bought my first camera a few days ago eeeeek... Lets hope this works out
Are you going to have Strive Sweatshirts in your store again?

I was thinking about doing an ER elective, but I wanted to know what it was like first. Will you be able to do a shift in the emergent/acute side of the department? Or are you only allowed to be in the non-emergent side?
Please recommend a good book for anatomy for USMLE step 1!!
I really enjoy watching your videos! Can you please consider having those pop ups on the screen not make a sound or as loud of a sound when they pop up? It's disorienting/annoying. Thank you
