The other day I was trying to think back to undergrad, when I was working hard to get into medical school, and trying to remember what I would search for on the internet about medical school or being a doctor.
I bring this up because a colleague and I were talking about the vast access to information now, compared to when we were in school. We were watching one of the residents sifting through articles online and such and thinking back to easier times 🙂 I know I was always distracted with games and other online deterrents, but I really can't remember if I looked up anything about being a doctor or getting into med school (I must have, #dimentia). I know now, when I am obssessed about something I search day and night for answers.
I was curious what the premeds these days look for when it comes to searching for information about med school, med school life, internship, whatever, and how we go from just wanting to get in and looking for how, to getting in and then what? The focus shifts to searching for best programs, how to treat, where to work, etc.
Just curious what you guys are searching for these days.
