"because there's no food around" LOL!! SAME! Thank you so much for being down to earth, bro. Your videos are very honest and valuable to those who aspire to wear the white coat. Thank you.
Makes sense you like to eat when you study. I do too and according to psychological studies it creates a mental connection with your brain and the food helping your mind commit what you are processing into long-term memory.
Dr. Webb you're an absolute inspiration! I'm currently a junior at university and studying for the MCAT right now, your videos motivate me to study even more, thank you.
i'm from bulgaria and i'm planning on studying medicine,i'm actually preparing for my exams next year.i find your videos really helfpul and i just want to thank you for doing this,you're awesome!
Hi right now I put in 90min a day in studying for the MCAT 5 to 6 day a week. I review a test each day there is seven subject on this big test and I have five sets of test to review. I don't wish to burn out so this is with I am doing and I have been doing this for the last three month. My test is in May that is if this pandemic blow over if not I will have to take it in much later-er. Just want to let you when I get in I will do my best to follow most of your steps. Thank you
just for anyone wondering: about your comment about making flashcards, I also follow other medical students and many of them rave about Anki. Anki is like an upgraded quizlet that many medical students use. It might not work for everyone but I've seen wonderful reviews and I myself love it :)

hi Dr. Webb! I'm a sophomore in high school and I really want to be a surgeon when I get older. what subject do you think you should be strongest in going to med school? and what is the most time consuming process during med school?
joylyn newlin n No particular subject but just develop strong test taking strategies and good study habits that will be beneficial for you and your career and also lifelong. The most time-consuming part of medical school is the amount of time that you have to study, there's lots of information that you have to learn in such a short amount of time.

Hey there thanks for your inspiring videos. I am 37 and starting to study medicine here in Germany next year. As I am pre-med now, I study about 8-10 hours a day already. I do have issues with varicose veins and the long sitting is no good for that. Any suggestions? concentration is not an issue, I am highly motivated and very effective. Thanks again for all your information and kind words

Hey Dr. Webb! can you do a video on how to kill intern year and Step 3? I just matched into Radiology this year and I start my transitional year this month. I am terrified and don't know where to start. I just completed my 4th degree (MBA) and haven't studied anything medicine in a year and a half. supper scared help please...oh yeah I'm a new subbie!!
tina I have a video on how to do well during residency. Check it out when you get a chance! And for step 3, it's not that bad. I just did Uworld questions! Hope this helps! Dr. Webb www.antoniowebbmd.com
Hi, hope all is well Tina. I know you matched into Radiology! Check out this video and interview here with Dr. Adair, a Radiologist who works full time from home! th-cam.com/video/9LYsFyuQyBc/w-d-xo.html
You said you didn’t go to sleep until you were done. What did you do to make sure you woke up the next day? For some reason when I do this and miss sleep I can NOT wake up at my normal time. I wake up late, end up late and disorganized and discouraged for the next day. Any advice?
Lea Vohn Most people start studying 1st and 2nd year of college so you can take the MCAT after your junior year and apply to medical school during your senior year but it all varies depending on how soon you want to start medical school. Dr. Webb www.antoniowebbmd.com
Dr. Antonio J. Webb Thanks for the advice. Also, do you recommend programs like Kaplan that help you prepare for the exam. I took a 6 week sat prep class from Kaplan and I don't think it was useful. What did you do to prepare for the MCAT?
Lea Vohn I took Kaplan and Princeton. If it works for you then use them but if not, study by yourself. You just have to figure out what works best for you Dr. Webb www.antoniowebbmd.com
Andre Jackson Thanks for the question! You have to build up to it and pace yourself! There is so much to learn in med school that you have to study that long. You get used to it! Dr. Webb www.antoniowebbmd.com
Good question! I just did LOTS and LOTS of questions! I used first aid (mostly) and then uworld qbank and that was about it. Here are a few of the books I used: USMLE First Aid: amzn.to/2zDKJQp or amzn.to/2NSVkKC Some people in my class used Master the Boards book, Crush USMLE, USMLE secrets Master the Boards, Step 2CK: amzn.to/2zCFhNP Crush USMLE: amzn.to/2KRW1ps USMLE Secrets: amzn.to/2KSIoq5 or amzn.to/2Ldl0zS Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions! Dr. Webb
"I can't study in libraries because they're no food around." This is actually me, haha. I feel so bad for studying in libraries because I can't stretch out how I want, and I have to have something in my mouth like every fifteen minutes. Usually I munch on apples which makes my eating in the library ten times worse because apples can be so loud. At first, I felt kind of guilty for not hurrying to the library to cram like everyone else. Now I'm kind of glad that I found out the locations and the type of studying that works best for me.

How did you keep your concentration for 10-15hours?it's hard for us to hold our concentration in studies after 2 hours :/

Ive been trying to get my study strategy together so far i just study 1 to 2 hours everyday to build up my study stamina

You probably used real flash cards and not the digital ones like Quizlet. I prefer the real ones.
Hey Dr. Webb. You mentioned that you went to Georgetown Med. Are you still in the DC area? I️ am interested in shadowing
Unfortunately, no. I only lived in DC for medical school.
You said you didn’t go to sleep until you were done. What did you do to make sure you woke up the next day? For some reason when I do this and miss sleep I can NOT wake up at my normal time. I wake up late, end up late and disorganized and discouraged for the next day. Any advice?
Also I’m a first year medical student
This is a good question. I was wondering the same
Anissa Butler what you majoring in?
Our phones have this thing called an alarm
When should I start studying for the mcat? I am currently 21 years old.
Thank you.

How did you go 15 hours of studying without eating? You said you love food and as a food lover myself I dont believe that that is possible.
Andre Jackson Thanks for the question! You have to build up to it and pace yourself! There is so much to learn in med school that you have to study that long. You get used to it!
Dr. Webb

how don't you get distracted when I study I get distracted easily
Spooked yet? Go to a library or somewhere where you can’t do anything else but study
Hello.how would u advice to study for step 2ck?thank you.
Good question! I just did LOTS and LOTS of questions! I used first aid (mostly) and then uworld qbank and that was about it.
Here are a few of the books I used:
USMLE First Aid: amzn.to/2zDKJQp or amzn.to/2NSVkKC
Some people in my class used Master the Boards book, Crush USMLE, USMLE secrets
Master the Boards, Step 2CK: amzn.to/2zCFhNP
Crush USMLE: amzn.to/2KRW1ps
USMLE Secrets: amzn.to/2KSIoq5 or amzn.to/2Ldl0zS
Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions!
Dr. Webb
