To all you wonderful people gearing up to start your 4th year of medical school, listen up. Some of my favs and I are sharing some advice for your MS4 year. I tagged my fellow #interncrew in the pic above, so check out their pages for more!⁣⁣
⁣⁣
MS4 year is hard, in a totally different way than the first 3 years of med school are hard. Though we’ve been through it ourselves, we don’t know what you’re going through with all the uncertainty around rotations and interviews. Regardless, we are here to help and support you any way we can.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Trust that what you have done up to this point has prepared you for this moment. You have worked SO hard to get to this point. Don’t let the fear of this year pull you backwards just because it’s all coming together now. You’re ready for this.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Take this time to reflect. When writing your personal statement and preparing for interviews, you want to know yourself pretty well so that you can speak from your heart. When asked, “who inspires you?” or “what’s your biggest weakness?,” have a real answer. One that is unique to you and your story. And my goodness please don’t try to disguise a strength for a weakness - talk about a real weakness of yours, and how you’re working to improve upon it. Programs aren’t looking for a perfect person, but rather someone who is authentic, self-reflective, and dedicated to doing good in this world. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I hope my fellow graduates and incoming interns join us in sharing some #AdviceForMS4! Help us support the Class of 2021!⁣

• Incorporating 𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰 into your study routine •⁣
⁣
Whatever you’re studying for, whether it be an exam for school or a national board exam, rapid review is an easy and efficient way to keep up with all you’ve worked so hard to learn. Here are my tips for practicing rapid review:⁣
⁣
📚 make a flash card deck (I love Anki but you can also use apps like Quizlet) from your missed practice questions⁣
📚 limit yourself to 1-2 cards from each missed question; ask yourself why you missed the question and focus your flash card on this specific concept⁣
📚 keep your cards simple and easy to read so you can go through them fast⁣
📚 if flash cards aren’t your thing, make a bulleted list of these concepts from your missed practice questions (written, word doc, phone notes)⁣
📚 each day, set aside 1 hour to go through your flash cards/list of concepts⁣
⁣
I imagine rapid review kind of like juggling - keeping all these random facts up in the air until you take your test! ⁣
⁣
Anyone else use rapid review as part of your study strategy? Feel free to leave more tips below too! 👇🏼

You don’t have to be productive all the time. Take the time you need to rest 💕

There is so much uncertainty in the world right now. But it’s still possible to find peace in everyday moments and the people in your life.⁣

Taking some time today to sit in the coziest spot (still in my PJs; it’s almost 3pm) and read for a virtual book club my friends put together.⁣
⁣
Today I’m grateful for all the time I’ve been able to spend with my boyfriend. That my family is healthy. The front line healthcare workers who continue to care for the sick every day. That I have food and a roof over my head. And friends who check in, even though we haven’t seen each other in months. ⁣
⁣
What are you grateful for?

I injured my shoulder & neck pretty badly a couple

I injured my shoulder & neck pretty badly a couple of days ago. Been doing a lot more shoulder and back workouts since quarantine began, and working on handstands almost every day. I think I overworked those muscles without giving them enough time for recovery. The pain didn’t come after a workout, but rather one morning while drinking my coffee. I was sitting and doing some computer work, stood up to take a big stretch, and boom all those muscles spasmed. I couldn’t move my neck or shoulders at all. I cried from the pain and stumbled to bed. Spent the rest of that day resting and alternating heat/ice. Two days later, I’m able to move my shoulders and neck again, but it still hurts. A reminder to myself to tune in to what my body needs. A reminder to rest more. To slow down.

Figured I had to break up my obsessive string of chocolate chip desserts so this one had to wait 😂 But now, my gluten-free vegan chocolate chip cookie recipe is POSTED on the blog! 🍪🍪 Joshua and I have made them twice now and we both love them! Aka these are #BoyfriendApproved⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
This recipe uses a vegan egg baking alternative, that I only recently learned of when out of eggs and desperate for cookies - aquafaba! To find out what #aquafaba is and make these ahhh-mazing choc chip cookies, click the link in my bio! ⁣⁣
