  • Hi everyone and welcome to my channel! My name is Briana and I'm a second year medical student at a DO school. Thank you so much for being here and following along my journey. I hope that you'll chose to stick around to learn with me and grow with me, and hopefully we can create a community where we all support each other!
    Best,

      USMLE exam is so difficult & I don't know the reason why it should be?

      USMLE exam won't be a problem if you work with someone like Mrs Maria Madison .she's God sent,she saved me form talking the test for the 3rd time

    Ok why do we literally have *identical* experiences all the time lol, I hated that older students said we shouldn’t even worry about step 1 since it’s P/F now - total BS!! Thanks so much for the s/o, you’re awesome and couldn’t agree more with everything you said! 💕

    To those reading the comments (not as much to the one and only Medical B -- PS thank you so much for posting this video), something I have found helpful is to read the final question FIRST. Doing this allows you to formulate answers and ideas in your head as you go through the vignette/charts and will also help you weed through the nonsense.

    • @medicalb9673
      @medicalb9673  ปีที่แล้ว

      Awww “the one and only medicalB” - I appreciate you 🥺🥺 also I totally agree! With longer questions, I’ve been reading the question first before skimming through the rest of the vignette. This saves me so much time on the shelf exams!

    Great video! I really appreciate that you noted how your in-house material and exams likely has prepared you well for real-life doctoring. I see so many people saying "can't I just study for boards and become a doctor?" And I just want to scream at all these internet people and say REAL LIFE IS NOT A 1 MINUTE WRITTEN VIGNETTE QUESTION WHERE THE ANSWERS ALREADY LEAN NEURO! Anyway, good luck for the coming year and YAY NEW HOUSE!
    ps. Your nails are ON POINT 💛

    • @medicalb9673
      @medicalb9673  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      EXACTLY!!! Real life medical practice isn’t going to be like the super rare stuff that’s on the boards! Answering a vignette doesn’t teach you how to talk through complicated situations or how to be relatable or compassionate! The nails look good from afar but they’re actually kinda crusty hahaha thank you though!

    • @JasonKrastein
      @JasonKrastein 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think that is the best way to sum it up. We aren't always motivated, but it is the discipline and routine that pushes us through to be successful. What is something you do when you're stressed?

      @medicalb9673  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@JasonKrastein I wish you asked me this question sooner!! I just filmed and edited my Q&A yesterday and I would’ve loved to include this! But I’ll just answer it here lol when I’m stressed, sometimes I cry. Sometimes I just close my eyes and take deep breaths and remember that this feeling is temporary. I ALWAYS listen to music!!! And I ALWAYS listen to my body and give it the break that it needs to watch some TH-cam videos, Netflix, or work out! Having Eric around for a hug and to talk me down is also helpful. ☺️

      Hi, I honestly think I might not be qualified to advise you on how to move forward. I understand that I’m a medical student who just finished the usmle and comlex but my experience was my own and what worked for me might not work for others. Since you’ve been taking NBMEs over the last month without improvement in your scores, I don’t think I’m the best person to give advice. Like I mentioned in my video, I found HyGuru to be very helpful for high yield content review and integration. If you have time for that, I’d highly recommend it. He helped me fill in a lot of knowledge gaps which is why my scores went up.

      Amboss is truly an EXCELLENT tool. Although I highly recommend Uworld and it’s one of the most highly rated resources, it’s not absolutely necessary. You can definitely still learn so much and get great questions from amboss!
