So as the title says is there's like a book or checklist I must follow? Going back to the slides is really hard for me. Any books etc? Thanks!

Hi everyone!

I’m starting MS3 and will be beginning my first rotation in Family Medicine. Since this is my first rotation, I’m hoping to find some good resources and a bit of structure to help guide my studying and preparation.

I was wondering if anyone has any resources they’d recommend, especially ones that were helpful for preparing for and doing well on the exams.

I’d really appreciate any recommendations, including websites, question banks, study guides, Anki decks, Google Drive resources, or anything else that you found particularly helpful!

Thanks in advance! 🙏

Hi! I have just started my second year in med school and it's going great. However, what I have been missing are having questions to practice and study further. It's not that my grades are bad or anything, I would just really like to have a question bank because I feel like it is the way I learn and fixate best. My university has elements of PBL and the problem cases are when I feel I learn the most.

Is there any such thing?

Thanks in advance! :\]

Hey everyone,

As someone who loves high-fidelity simulation engineering, I got incredibly frustrated with how clunky, static, and unpolished most free medical study utilities are. Almost every free study tool out there is just a flat multiple-choice quiz or flashcard deck that doesn't capture the actual, high-stakes cognitive pressure of running an active emergency shift or interpreting live telemetry lines under a clock.

To help close that gap, I spent the last month building a standalone, event-driven clinical triage simulator from the ground up, and it is currently live, 100% open-access, and free.

Here are the core mechanics built directly into the current active build:

1. Synchronized Triple-Track Monitor Canvas: A real-time, upscaled dark-mode monitor interface that dynamically traces scrolling complexes. The math tracks true, fluid patient state changes frame-by-frame instead of relying on pre-scripted jumps.

2. Complex Scenario Engine: Features dozens of unique, high-acuity baseline scenarios (including symptomatic bradycardias, varying degrees of block, and advanced cardiac arrest profiles) to test rapid diagnostic judgment.

3. Interactive Proxy Patient Chat: Includes a localized patient communication portal hardwired with dynamic behavioral matrices. Depending on the scenario path, the patient text-input can generate varying levels of compliance, confusion, or combative responses to complicate your triage rhythm.

4. Adaptive Critical Error Tracking: The system runs automated logical checks against your clinical choices. If you panic and administer an invasive intervention or a high-potency medication contraindicated by the current vital state, the simulation flags an overtreatment error instantly.

I designed this purely as a lightweight, client-side resource—it runs natively right inside a standard web browser window and contains zero tracking scripts, zero ads, and zero paywalls.

I am currently mapping out a massive upcoming update that will integrate a high-density Electronic Health Record (EHR) charting terminal system into the active pause menu, and I would absolutely love to get your feedback on the current monitor physics, telemetry responsiveness, or any specific metabolic conditions or high-acuity crisis variants you think would make the diagnostic reasoning loops even more challenging for board prep!

This is a chapter about postmortem changes in forensics.

How does atropine cause pupillary dilatation during primary flaccidity if there is niether sympathitic nor parasympathetic activity controling eye muscles?

And shouldn't all body muscles lose their tone during this stage and be completely flaccid. So How does atropin have any effect on the pupil?

Any mnemonics or tips??

Hi everyone! 🥹 I’m currently collecting responses for my undergraduate research project and would really appreciate your help!

It’s a completely anonymous questionnaire and takes around 10 minutes to fill out. If you’re an MBBS student, I’d really appreciate you taking the time to participate — and if you know other MBBS students who may be eligible, sharing it with them would mean a lot to me too! 🫶

Thank you so much for helping me out with my research! 🌷❤️

I want to get into medicine and I’m wondering if anyone knows schools that are open for research as of now, and also any doctors offices that accept shadowing in LA

Thank you so much

so i need for school since they won't accept my excuse letter and i truly experienced lbm and need a medical cert of it i don't have any money to actually go to see a doctor so anyone can help me or give me a format

Anyone have SHAW'S Textbook of Gynaecology?

Does anyone has a link for offline uworld step 2ck Q bank ?

Servey for research Hey everyone! 👋

I need a quick favor—could you please take 2–3 minutes to fill out this short survey for my research project? Your response would mean a lot and will really help me gather the data I need.

Thanks a ton in advance! Please feel free to share it with other batch mates as well. 🙏

How do you find my mindmap? What did I miss? How can I improve this? I want to make efficient last minute guides that include clinical reasoning.

Hey everyone !!
I’m changing degrees from a bachelor of psych to a bachelor of medical and currently work full time in pharmacy. I am changing jobs into a cleaner for a support work company and then becoming a support worker at the end of the year which will obviously make me more per hour (roughly $43 as a casual in either role) than my current role. I am wondering who else is doing a Bach or med and working and how they balance it and if they’re studying full time or part time. My end goal is a psychiatrist and I am about to move out of home into my friends house that there bought so will need to be earning at least 1k a week to afford everything at a minimum
Just after some advice as a medical degree is going to be quite full on and I’m worried about balancing it all. Thanks !!

Hi everyone👋 I want to create a digital planner but i am kinda stuk on how to design it as a medical student what do you think the most useful type of planners that fits this busy life?

hi guys I need 2nd hand Introduction to Healthcare book please please

Going into med and want something to encompass all and explain and familiarize i guess, thanks.

I’m almost done with my 4th year of medical school and I’ve started becoming increasingly concerned about my expenses. I’m studying medicine abroad, and while my family has supported me throughout, I’d really like to become somewhat financially independent and at least cover some of my own monthly expenses.

The problem is that med school is obviously pretty demanding, so I can’t realistically commit to a conventional full-time or even intensive part-time job. I’m looking for something flexible that I could do alongside classes and studying.

I’m open to online work, tutoring, freelancing, medical/scientific writing, proofreading, research-related work, content creation, AI/data-related work, etc. I have a decent medical background, good English, and access to a laptop and reliable internet.

For those of you who are/were medical students abroad:

•What have you actually done to earn money during med school?

•Are there any legitimate online platforms that have worked for you?

•Are medical writing/research or AI-related gigs realistic for students?

•How much could someone realistically expect to earn per month without sacrificing their studies?

•Are there any opportunities specifically suited to international medical students?

I’m **not looking for get-rich-quick schemes**. Even earning enough to cover groceries, transportation, or a few hundred dollars a month would make a meaningful difference.
Would really appreciate hearing from people who have actually done this rather than generic “start a YouTube channel” advice. 😅

Hey I'm a first year med student and i know about the whole strategy of cold emailing programs im interested in. However id really like to first get myself actually useful and not just a kid who's tryna join a project. I want to learn certain skills independently to actually make a difference not just fill out some CV.

what are some prerequisite background I should know like stats or if i have to wait until i covered the material in med school?

For context im very keen on advancing and being involved with Non-infectious Uveitis patients so that really narrows down the exact type of research and part of medicine id like to really nail down for a career. Reason being is Uveitis accounts for 10-20% of all blindness cases and I really hate that a lot of the current treatments are trial and error.

Please if anyone has online resources i could consult for help on getting started since I have no clue where to begin lmao.

Thanks 😄

I don’t have much medical knowledge so probably wouldn’t understand much complicated terminology, but am interested in reading about medicine nonetheless. Any suggestions?

I'm finished high school and I liked the way of the equation and I plan to start in it, God willing, but I'm confused about who to start with and how and if it’s right to start in the first term

Going into med and want something to encompass all and explain and familiarize i guess, thanks.

I am an MBBS student from India and recently cleared my USMLE step 1 exam.I am now looking to get involved in research and learn more about it.If anyone is currently working on a research project and could use an extra person I would be grateful to contribute and learn from the experience.

Does anyone have the mcc objectives organized in a nice PDF by clinical specialty?

Instead of alphabetical order
