indomethacin_ · Oct 20, 2015

Hey everyone, Indomethacin here.

I have put up a new video on my account as a blog, sharing my story of how I was able to do get into medical school, follow my dreams and do well.
This channel is mostly for USMLE examination advice for all medical students as well as graduates, and am very hopeful that this will help.

Let me know what you guys think. Cheers!

Hi, Mr. Indomethacin... or should I say, Doctor Indomethacin?!
I really admire your work ethic. I am currently researching my options for medical school. Through my research I have noticed you attended a Caribbean medical school. Many people recommend St. George's University or American University of Antigua. What is your opinion on the various Caribbean options? I value your opinion greatly. Thank you, and I look forward to your response!!!

indomethacin_ · Oct 21, 2015

Mr. Indomethacin, I am almost a doctor.

Thank you for your kind words. I would recommend St. George if you can get in. They have rotations in new york and california. New York is a highly IMG friendly location for residency.

Hey all, i'll plug myself here too..

I'm a 4th year now on the interview trail, and run www.BlueScrubsMD.com, posting tips, resources, and guides for medical students of all years (and premeds). It's still pretty new, but I'm always adding new stuff.

Let me know what you think! (or if you want me to write about a certain topic hehe).

I am doing bachelor of nursing . And my 4 years are left for permanent residence in USA . Is it better for me to do nursing in India and go there and then do mbbs. Or should I do mbbs now but I have shortage of time. After nursing also can I take usmle ?

justonemedicalstudent · Mar 25, 2016

Here's one I'm just starting as a third year med student in the US. Not really academically oriented, just talking about my experiences and the grind of training. Would love to hear anyone's thoughts. https://www.tumblr.com/settings/blog/medicalstudentrefuge

I hated med school, now I (finally!) enjoy being a doctor and helping others who are hating med school, or residency, or their first years out of training. It's about decision-making towards a more serene and ideal practice.

I'd use "what it's like to be in med school" loosely here. Here in the US, medicine and the path to becoming a physician (whether that be MD or DO) is very different. I would hope that the UK is striving to be more like the US with education and policy as far as structure goes. Pro Tip: The Pencil Pushing Government has no business dictating what a doctor does and does not prescribe whether it be education, medicine, treatment, or otherwise UNLESS these authoritative boards are EXCLUSIVELY staffed by MD/DOs and have this authority alone.

Hey everyone! I'm having a lot of fun writing about how I manage mental health and happiness as I pursue a degree in physical therapy! I was recently admitted to Campbell and Duke's DPT programs and am providing grad school interview and application tips, advice on what not to do when writing a personal statement, information on a medical mission trip I took, mental health support, and more!

SyncopeStudent · Nov 14, 2016

Hey there everyone!!!

I am a 3rd year medical student. Been asked by A LOT of 1st years, 2nd years and pre-med/A-level students about where to find blogs that detail life at medical school in an informal way.
So am happy that I've found this thread which I can now refer people to.

I also personally have my own blog, which I use as a reflective diary to remind me of some of the experiences and viewpoints that I hold as I go through med school.
The link is: https://syncopestudent.wordpress.com/

Thanks everyone!

Great post

gasspasser · Dec 8, 2016

I started a new blog geared toward anesthesia residents. It's mostly a humorous take on real world news and reviews of anesthesia-related movies.

Most recent post is about a woman who farted under anesthesia and set fire to herself, and I include real anesthetic considerations to prevent such happenings.

Thanks for adding my blog to the list!

Shameless self plug:
http://www.scrubnotes.com
The site covers advice for medical school, exams, preparing for residency, and other topics of interest to medical/healthcare professions students

Another site I work with:
http://theradiologyblog.com
Covers topics of interest to all students interested in medical imaging (such as how to read a chest x-ray and other basic exams), as well as topics specific to those within radiology.

Thanks,
Jay
