- Having finished the first year of medical school, I noticed that it is completely manageable if you have the right schedule and self discipline. In this video I describe my strategy to the first year of medical school and disprove many medical school myths.

you lost me at get up at 6
looooooooooool
It’s a real hustle once your in med school.
I just finished my first year in medical school and I can say revision is very important. You don't need to go to the exam finishing the 100% of your lectures. All you need is to finish more than 50% of lectures and revise them all. Also, studying day by day. Read and keep reading! Search, ask, watch. All those things helped me to improve my grades.
I start medical school in a month...so nervous already. I hope I can make the most of this amazing opportunity and blessing.
Oh my God really??? I start in 2 weeks time. Am excited and nervous. good luck to the both of us.
Mee tooo!!!! so excited and so worried at the same time about this hole managing everything stuff!! inshallah everything cause well for all of us
Aw! Where will you be going? Im going to Barts in london :)+ yes inshaAllah we'll be fine. We've made this far why cant be make it through as well, yeah?
Hahahaha des it's true let's be positive we never know what can happen! Well I will start med school in Switzerland inshallah
May Dhif inshAllah
well... my first semester was a total mess... It was very difficult (at least for me) to adapt to the speed that things were going, and my schedule was just awful... I used to sleep like 4-3 hours a day... it wast just so difficult... the nervousness before an anatomy exam was just... gosh haha... I did a lot better in my second semester of that year, I managed to adopt a daily studying rutine and to be honest, it makes your life a looot easier... during my desesperation haha I tried to find the answer on how to do better in forums and stuff and everyone will tell you the same thing, respect a daily schedule of studying, that is the only secret
"it makes you feel like you have a life."
I LOVE that White Board/Blackboard/Fountain Pen idea, it's insanely genius!
I'm in first year of vet school, and got totally lost with my stydying schedule, this video has so many good tips, thanks alot! I will abolutely try out the schedule and the prepping in the morning :-) Keep up the good work! Greetings from a norwegian vet-student in Budapest.
Thank you for your videos I am applying for USUHS class of 2023 your videos are amazing and thank you for sharing all you have learned
I LOVE YOU>
This guy is so right. I started the one hour on 15 minutes off. It totally works. I use it now and it is amazing especially with taking my 1hr lunch and 1 hr dinner!!!!
being prior military, this mindset makes a ton of sense, thank you for this video.
Thank you so much! I'm always looking for ways to manage my time and interests before entering med school to avoid the trivial worries you were talking about in the beginning
"I am a medical student now, I am really smart" lol. Brilliant.
Great advice mate. Definitely will be reflecting on your advice next year.
Wow, you're so elaborate about it. Thank you for being so open and helpful. Seems very genuine :)
This video makes me want to go study :)
My med school begins at 8am & ends at 5pm :'(
Same here
Deeviya Ganesan YESS!! Same here..
Deeviya Ganesan
I went for computer science classes with same schedule , so what s the big deal?
Since finals is around the corner, they even planning for extra class :'( :'(
Deeviya Ganesan If 8-5 is difficult for you, then you will not enjoy residency. By 8am during my PGY1 year, I am expected to have rounded on, developed plans on and written notes on the patients on my service. I am expected to see consults, and take care of anything that happens to any of the 15-20 or so patients on the floor. My day "ends" at 5:30pm when I check out to the night staff, but I am routinely in the hospital until 8pm catching up on paper work, consults, admissions, etc. from the day before I have to come back at 5am again for sign out the next day. I do this 6 days a week. This is what you will be facing as a resident. I hope 8-5 gets easier for you.
I just discovered ur videos and I can certainly say that you are amazing at giving advice! I love your optimism... it makes me excited to start med school in August (even though I am also a lil terrified of what to expect!)
good advice.
I am 21. i'm undergrad. I take MCAT soon. This is good advice. I heard this from you at a good time.
Note to self:
-wake up at 6
-study 1 hr + 15 min break
-sleep at 11
-military dicipline
-don't look at others accomplishments
-exercise
-friends, family, life
-got it!
You are my saviour. I am the QUEEN of procrastination. You have given me new found hope and motivation!
I'm so glad I found this vid 'cause I'm starting med school in less than 2 weeks. Thanks for the awesome prep advice! Subbed!
I will start in a month at least....... I will also be first year.... I will be happy if we can be friends so that we can get benefit from each other if you dont mind..... this is also true for anyone else who sees this reply..... waiting for your answer CHEERS
How is medschool going for ya ?
Hello Ossareh, I'm an IMG medical graduated from Chile and now I'm preparing my step 1, this was a great video, thanks for the advise!
you seem like the kind of guy that WON'T let yourself fail. Good for you man to have such self control, your going to achieve great things.
I'm so happy that I found you on my first day at med school. And I got scared going for just one day, I obviously didn't want to stay scared or become weary of the path I'd chosen, so I turned to the internet and after several youtube videos ( mostly yours ) I just finished watching this one.
I wanted to write a little chunk of sentences telling you Thank you ! Now I can start to make sense of where I'm headed and how to cope with the year ahead. ^_^ I'll keep around ^_^you get my 2 thumbs up ( Yup heard you say that in one of your more recent videos). Your work is amazing and so is your style of explaining. You're a great motivational speaker. ^_^ loved everything here. You're great help.
P.S I love fountain pens too( most people think I'm crazy ) and white and black boards. ^_^ ^_^ Thanks a bunch again. You're amazing ^_^
You're so funny and I love the advice you gave. Thanks for posting this video!
DocOssareh has honestly inspired me to consider med school, I am currently in engineering and this video has honestly helped me rethink my goals and how to approach engineering time management wise. Thanks for the great video man, keep it up!!
Thank you so much! This is probably the best advice I've ever gotten
I think its a good idea to have 15 min free time, 1 hour lunch, getting you to think that u actually have a life haha
thank you so much again, hopefully I can manage my self better now
can't get enough of watching your videos, it just gives me a motivation to continue studying. please do video on how to get motivation in medical school. thank you
just graduated from college and realizing medical school is starting up in about 2 months now, this is helpful to get less nervous about it!!
Hey man, thanks. You really helped me to understand logically how to manage medical school, instead of panicking, which is what sometimes happens to me.
Thanks for the tips. I'm in second year but am returning after a LoA so I am really thankful for this vid.
You are the MAN! Thank you so much for your advice! And I'm glad i watched this video
I feel a lot better after watching this, and I'm starting to get really excited about med school. I'm a junior in under grad. And a lot of the tips you gave especially about being strict and military with time management, I feel like I have a great handle on this already. I even write out a study schedule so that I know exactly what to study, when to study it and how long to study it (according to priority, highest being which ever exam is first or what ever I understand least lol), it usually is weekly. Monday study this for this long, then study that for that long, Tuesday study this for this long, complete this assignment (or start) etc. And I set two alarms in the morning 5 min apart to make sure I get up lol. So hearing this makes me happy, maybe it won't be such a thrown in cold water with no clothes on for me :D
I really enjoyed watching the video!!! I am attending medical school next semester and I find your video very helpful:) Again, thanks for sharing !!!
I'm from Zambia, Africa and I just recently got into med school over here. I've only had 2 lectures so far and I'm really enjoying it. I've been watching all your videos and I must say, they're making me even more enthusiastic to learn more. Thank you so much for your information. I think it's gonna make me a good med student.
You're amazing for sharing your study techniques! This is going to help so much. Can't wait to follow this schedule. :)
On the weekends I usually do some catching up on the notes and flashcards that I didn't get done during the week. I keep to the same work and sleep schedule on the weekends. It's just easier to do so. I allow myself more time for working out and as you call them "recreational activities." You will find that it's up to you how much time you want to spend not studying. If you feel comfortable with the material, then you can have long blocks of activities. It's really up to you.
cool video, informative and really useful!
Im on a roll! I love your videos! Very inspiring! It's motivating me to study- which I'm doing right this second!
Thank you much for this video. This was extremely helpful for me as I'm prepping for medical school in the next year or two...anything else that you recommend, please upload! :)
Oh wow, great video ! And thank you so much for sharing all those helpful advices :)
I'll use your method of studying for my chemistry and biology A levels.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience.
Great stuff man. I wish I followed this kind of regimen. The only problem is that many schools have lectures in the morning and labs during the day. This definitely holds true for second year though (no labs). Good luck in MS2. Keep up the hard work and you'll do great.
-MS2
Thanks a lot for this entertaining and helpful video! Getting ready for med school to start soon and am glad I stumbled upon this video
Honestly just preparing the tests throughout the session is more than enough to pass any exam in medical school.
Thanks! You put tougether all the important tips :) I'm on the first yera od medical school warsaw, Poland and it was so hard to find my routin :)
I really enjoyed your video, it was very informative. I was even bursting out laughing at parts. I am starting medical school in August and I will definitely be using your advice! Thanks for the help!
Thanks for making this video. It is very helpful and I am going to start incorporating this into my school/studying. :)
THIS VIDEO IS AMAZING. THANK YOU THANKYOU THANKYOU! love your videos
8 years later I'm here again. I first watched this video just entering college way before Med School even started. And now I'm going to go to medical internship in few months. Time has gone fast but now I'm gonna recommend this video to my juniors who ask me how to manage first year, because this video still is valid. Even during a pandemic. Keep it up dude! Heard you are a neurologist now. :D
this is a wonderful video! I was intimidated by the length initially, but it was so very useful, and the advice so precise and simple! I took notes while watching this, your advice and experience has been so helpful and your delivery so engaging! Thank you very much!
Love the video, what do you do at weekends? Is it the same routine?
Why do I find it funny when he says he doesn't care about what I do?
Lol same
You have some wonderful videos, I like all of them for the great advices u give!
I really appreciate this channel. Thanks for all of your tips. It helps to motivate me.
That was really helpful, thanks!!!
I'm soooo glad I found your channel!!
+Hilary Chap thanks for the message! Glad you joined the community
Can you please tell me how you use the white and black board for you studies? Is there a video on it?
I personally haven't seen one since primary school. Thanks
thank you for the tips and advices!! It really motivates me to study more in medical school. I have been trying to find techniques on how the manage things so that it won't be so stressful but it never worked. So im gonna try your techniques :) seems easy maybe.huhuh. anyways, thank you soon much :)
I really really like your video, i mean it's been almost three weeks (yeah only three weeks) that i've started all of my studies in medical school, and i really started feeling down, getting confused and depressed and like omg i made a bad choice and stuff. And seriously these tips helped me a lot, i'm feeling more organised and less stressed. So thank you so much, and yeah keep it up man !!
Amazing. I specifically logged in to comment your video.
Thank you so much, I've just started my first year and it's been really hard. I didn't do good on my first exam so it feels like i'm stuck in a vicious cycle where I compare myself to others and think I'm the stupid one. It's hard to find yourself at the bottom of the class for the first time.
Anyways great tips on the studying, will be using those as of NOW. see you in 1 hour
Omg, I was so wanting to ask this question. Yes Mo, please do!
Great Video. Very informative. Thank you so much.
Wow! This is very informational and helpful. Thank You so much.
This is really helpful. Thank you so much😊❤
I wish I had seen this sooner. Into my 8th week of med school here in scotland and im struggling a bit haha, here its part of a 6 year undergraduate course.
Thank you for all of your videos!! They are very helpful! :)
I should have found out your videos at the beginning of 1st year. :/ they are so helpful!!
I think this is a good practice as an undergrad as well! I will def. be doing this this fall
Thanks very much. I'm alone overseas, but thinking about doing this. Very supportive and means a lot.
Great video that undergrads and premed students should use to start learning how to learn efficiently. I will recommend this to all my premed friends
Very useful. Thanks for the gunner tip!!!
i'm in the first year of vet school in Taiwan, this semester has been crazy insane with countless tests, class hours, and lab reports. My school doesn't work like yours, we have classes 9-5 almost everyday. But anyways, your video is inspiring and good pep talk, thank you!
Thank you so much for this video it really helped me a lot. I'm about to finish my first year in med school and I struggle a lot so I'm going to use and implement all the stuff you talked about. And you're right it's nothing that I didn't know already but the way you put it out there made me see it more clearly. Thanks!
Greetings from Mexico!
Grace Colin How was your 1st year? Any update? :D
I really like your videos man, please keep it up :D
Thank you for this bro. Applying this stuff now. Sleep is oh so important
Thank you! Very nice video!
Thanks for the advice!
thank you for posting this video!
Very helpful tips. Thanks for sharing.
i'm already cramming right now for my exams on January ! this is just what i need . thank you!
Very helpful and that shirt looks good on you!
On the weekends I usually do some catching up on the notes and flashcards that I didn't get done during the week. Also, when you have Anatomy lab the weekends are a great time to go in. Usually few/no people are in the lab on Saturday or Sunday mornings. It's a great time to get in there and learn quietly for a couple hours.
I oddly enough have a video about studying and life balance. Here is the link, I hope it's useful. youtube. com/watch?v=MFZTSge9crc
Hello!

I've had a pretty rough start to med school so far with studying and keeping up with material mainly due to a lack of a daily disciplined routine so I'm hoping some of your tips will help as I try to get back on track. Thanks!
+sal bravo good luck and thanks for the note!

Thanks brother!! Very helpful
A very useful video. Thank you.
Thank you so much for sharing !
I feel like this is your best video.
Thank you very much ,this is very awesome.I gonna apply all this 4 steps....
Thanks for the comment. I bough the white board at Costco and I bought the chalk board from Amazon. Make sure not to pay more than $30 for either. There ae some that are extremely expensive online for no reason.
I am only in 10th grade high school, but I think that this method you were talking about will really help me through out the rest of high school and in college, etc. Really liked this video, thanks! :) I also liked the fire hydrant and marathon comparisons.
excellent advices!!
I am frm ALGERIA and I ll strt my 1st year in medical school, I love this video, great advices 10x man it helps a lot.
