You should tell us more facts like the vagus nerve. It was interesting and a good way to remember stuff. It should be like Fact of the Day. Keep moving forward 👍👍👍
I enjoyed the editing changes at the beginning, but don’t spend too much time on the edits. The main reasons I watch these are 1. Your personality and 2. To see what medical school will be like to keep me motivated to keep going in undergrad. Much love and support as always Rach.
I teach (kids) how to memorize things. It was interesting to me that you read things aloud when you get tired. That is real thing and not just something to keep you awake. I'd recommend you do it more often. Some people memorize (or learn) things better by writing things down. But many people learn better by reading things aloud. It activates two major parts of the brain, the part used for speaking/reading, AND the part used for hearing (because you are reading it aloud). Often you will read something, but it won't sound right to you. Then when you go back, you realize you read it incorrectly. Or vice-versa. It's worth giving it a shot, it can't hurt.
Rachel...stress, lack of sleep etc. can be insidious in breaking down the very walls that we all use to keep ourselves up, and guard our emotions. Crying becomes too easy. Lack of energy, desire bla bla bla. Nothing you haven’t already felt. Often Rachel there is no one answer. And what works one day to help your mood and desire may not work the next. I was advised a long time ago to have a “group”of different remedies or items if you will that I could rotate through, and use, either by themselves or in combination, that would help with stress relief and removal of some of the heaviness in my...life/heart. I had as many as 12 different talisman, for lack of a better term, that I could reach for. Just something to consider. I wish you well.
Currently in my last year of nursing school and watching you study gives me the motivation to study. Thank you for your videos, and keep up the good work!
You have literally changed my life for the better for school.. in terms of building a strong mentality with your video showing how rough med school was... good to know im not the only one thinking that
I'm in love with this your new editing style. God how I've learnt so much from you as a fellow med student. Watching what med students go through is almost the same even in different countries. Juggling med sch and TH-cam isn't easy but you do manage to handle this gracefully. Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬
Hi, thanks for your videos - med school is tough, but worth it! I graduated med school in 2009 and just completed my specialist traing in psychiatry this year. If I was to offer any advice it would be study smarter, not harder. Get enough sleep and eat regular meals. If you're studying while exausted, you won't take much in. i found 10 minute sleeps between study periods of around 1.5-2 hours to be a way of resseting my brain for maximum study efficiency. Also reading a chapter of a textbook just before you go to sleep at night effectively enables you to process and store that information while you are sleeping. Keep going, you'll get there!
Yay!! Love this series. In another life I would’ve wanted to be a doctor - so I’m living vicariously through you. Also, I admire your dedication towards gym and TH-cam while your schedule is that crazy!!
I like the new intro! It's pretty fang impressive to see you put time, energy and effort into these vlogs while being in med school! Thanks for taking us along on your journey!
AHHAHA love your lil ocular reflex fun fact. BTW rachel i'm an RN transitioning into medicine next yr, i recently found ur channel & I LOVE your videos they're so inspiring. I'm planning to vlog about my med school journey too & ur def inspiring me so much in that regard too xoxo
I’m so glad I found your channel! I’m a premed, currently studying hard for my MCAT next year. Watching you studying and staying dedicated to what you love makes me want to work hard as well. I wish you the best of luck on your journey! 🥺
I'm Gary Nursing student. Your editing is 1st class. I hate the fact that their is so little sleep studying Medicine. Never have I gotten up to study at 1am-7am for lab just to make sure I knew the material. My lecture tests are all notes usually 150-200 pages. Keep fighting and you'll make it. For what it's worth, you inspire ME.
Psychologist here.You're completely right to not study in your bed! You associate bed with sleep. If you start studying in your bed, it interferes with that association, which can lead to sleeping problems. Studying in multiple places and at different times of the day (other than your bed) helps to solidify the information in your mind and makes it easier to remember come test day 😊 good luck with med school!!
Love your content! I would love to see a video on how your studying habits now compare to when you were in undergrad and any tips/ things you wish you would've implemented during college :) You're the best, keep grinding! It's so inspirational to follow you on this journey!
Rewatching all your videos right now in a state of nervous anxiety with the end of the semester coming up… used the vagus nerve tip to help my body start to calm down!!
I love watching your videos! They always give me motivation to keep studying for the MCAT, I know that if I work hard enough I’ll be in your shoes one day (hopefully soon)!
Hey Rachel, could you make another video on Anki? I watched the first one but can you make one showing how you review every day? and how much is a good amount of new cards to learn a day?
Ummm course we noticed the intro ha! Really cute. I feel like when you’re a famous brain surgeon one day you’ll include The Herd in your thank you speech
Loved the tip you shared about rubbing your eyes! I hope you keep sharing what you're learning because it's so insightful! Would love if you made a video for college student health tips and tricks!
Also!!! Love the changes you did with editing. I mean, the way you did your old vlog was cool too! But this is nice!! ALSO GURL HOLY I STARTED LISTENING TO YOUR TH-cam VIDEO WHILE GOING DOWN TO MY LAUNDRY ROOM (a little creepy) AND IT FREAKED ME OUT FOR .5SECONDS and then I just burst out laughing because I realized the noises were actually in your video and not just in my ears 😂😂😂😂😂😂😬
I wonder if that's why I can only fall asleep with something heavy, like a thick blanket, over my eyes. If it isnt over my eyes while I'm laying down, brain doesnt do sleepy time.
OH MY GOSH. I rubbed my eye a zillion times last night while trying to study and fell asleep multiple times. Never rubbing my eyes again while studying. Especially if im in my bed lol
Hi Rachel! I really love your videos youre very inspirational.. i was wondering if you would make a video about finances.. i know financial situations can be personal and i would understand if not but im a premed junior in college and i am just trying to understand how current medical students afford things and pay for things without working. Like rent but also food and do you shop? Id just like to have an idea of what to expect... thank you❤️
Hey, Rachel, I adore your content! x I was wondering if you have ever tried studying any of the pre-made Anki decks or do you often just make your own? Also, what is the app you use to watch lectures faster than 2x? Cheers, I hope medical school is going well and that you had a fulfilling Gobble Day.
School, TH-cam, Outdoor Activities, Flawless Skin, Cute Style, Healthy Physique - How does this woman manage it all ?!? Adopt me plz

Hey ❤️ I just finished Medschool in Germany and I am a doctor now 🥰 wish you alle the best for your journey - its a loooong ride!
Can I get a checkup on July :3
Congratulations Doc!
Allez Allez
Hi I have some questions about ur time studying in Germany if you don’t mind answering them
Which medical school in Germany!? Do you learn your courses in English?
The hospital janitor was vacuuming the floor mats while I was volunteering a few days ago... I saw the lines and thought of you 😂
I would die so happily if I knew that everyone would remember me by vacuum lines..
Actually I remember her when I vacuum and see those lines 🤣🤣😂🤣
Love the vids Rachel! It's fun to see a different way of how someone is documenting their journey through medical school! Keep up the grind!

I'm not a med student, I'm a law student, but I still enjoy watching your med school content 😂❤️

Can you maybe put time in the bottom left corner so that we can see how much time it took you for a certain lecture or studying?
Im honestly getting sleepy after rubbing my eyes so much lol 😂
Yay!! Love this series. In another life I would’ve wanted to be a doctor - so I’m living vicariously through you.

I love how you are way more comfortable on camera now. And, I love the new edits!!
Love learning about "all that stuff" from you!
I really really really REALLY like this vlogging style 🙃

The close ups of you telling us bye. Are the best :)
