I went for a run after my test today - that was fun I guess.

What do you people do all day?

You have to be ******ed to fail and you have to study 21 hours a day to honor. (At my school, honors is the top X%. I would estimate that if you break it down by studying, the top X% by study time studies >12h/day.) If I skip lectures and read for ~3h/day, plus maybe an average of 2 hours of mandatory attendence crap, that still leaves me with ... lots of time.

I don't see any reason to shoot for 80th percentile instead of around the mean when it takes 10 times more work. The nitpicky details you pick up in M1 classes between 80 and 90% are stuff you'll forget and our performance in them is practically irrelevant for residency.

I guess when M2 rolls around I'll have less free time, though. 🙁

Don't assume that what works for you at your school necesarrily works for everyone or for people at different schools. I think my curriculum makes it pretty damn tough to get by on 5 hours of work a day. 7-8 at the beginning of the block, with a drastic increase near the end seems to be the norm.

Yes, some people on SDN seem to have pretty cushy schedules compared to what is possible to even just get by elsewhere.
