Now that I am on the other side I realize how awkward I was as a medical student,
Best advice I can give:
We can see through your facade. Stop trying so hard. The problem is some med students try way to hard and don't realize that they are hurting themselves more than helping.
If I can see myself working with you/ you are a nice person , have a decent knowledge base, work hard, I will likely give you a good grade.
If you annoy me and ask me annoying questions, I will give you a bad grade.
We have a lot on our minds as residents. We don't nitpick on every mistake you make unless it is memorable to us. When I fill out my evaluations, I often think " did this med student make my life better or worse during my shlt life as a resident" .
