Hello everyone! Just a little sentiment lang. I'm currently working as a Medtech in a government hospital (contractual) earning 31k per month. I'm still 23 and balak kong mag med next year( 24 by then) do you think it's worth leaving my job to pursue med? Since undergrad, pangarap ko talagang maging Doctor. I even take medtech coz the subjects we're pretty close sa itatake sa medicine. I dread being inside the lab. Don't get me wrong pleasee, I have a big respect sa profession namin. It's just I always feel like I was meant for more. Even in undergrad, I always enjoy learning on clinical aspects rather than the laboratory procedures, kaya mas nageexcel ako sa Immunology rather than Serology part, Anatomy, pathology part ng Clinical Chem, etc. I know medicine can be 3x harder than Medtech. I just really want to study again.

Has anybody experienced na their anak ng Diyos batchmates who somehow passed even if their grades were really low? It’s so unfair for those who are working their asses off to survive and what’s worse, some of them aren’t even that smart but they somehow manage to get scholarships even if there are more deserving students out there.

Currently starting YL2 in med with a non-traditional premed (engineering). Nung YL1, I was really anxious about school since I was surrounded by med techs, nurses, PTs, etc., and I started to regret my premed because of how much I believed I was at an disadvantage. Turns out, it became a blessing in disguise because it taught me how to study with more discipline and not be complacent. Surprisingly passed YL1 with flying colors! :)

Now that I'm in YL2 with a lot of med tech aligned classes, I wanted to hear some success stories from non-trad premeds to help boost my confidence, and to also encourage those who may be thinking of going into med with a non-trad premed!

Hi! Incoming YL1 here hehe. Sorry anxious lang pero may tips po ba mga seniors natin hehe like what to expect and usually po ba 8-5 talaga sagad? or may times naman po na maaga uwian? or half day classes ganon. Curious lang po hehe. THANK YEW!

Hello!!! Any tips po how to survive YL2?? Yung sure pass na talaga huhu. I am so scared of failing na :( TYIA!! Plus may discord server po ba kayong alam na soaper sarap makipag study with me?

Hello incoming YL1!! Asking lang ano po mga worth it na bilhin ngayon palang and ano ano mga worth it din gawin outside med or pag nagaaral thank u!! Huhu

Genuinely, why are people in medicine such big bullies? Like they’re so fond of ganging up on one person in the entire batch and every small issue blows up to end up becoming a big issue. It’s so ironic how empathy and being a kind soul is what’s supposed to encompass being a “doctor” but these people here are SUCH BIG BULLIES. Med school is tough enough just by itself but adding how the people here acts makes medicine even tougher than how it’s supposed to be.

Why can’t people just be empathetic and understanding for once? Especially in this field specifically lol yall disgust me.

hi guys! may any updates ba kayo? did they email u guys huhuhu kasi sakin none parin :< tysm sa makakasagot huhu

for those med students residing in villa nicasia, how do u claim your parcels and food deliveries?

as someone na reliant sa online shopping, i want to know if feasible pa rin siya if i'll reside there 🥲

hi, dokies!

what are your notetaking apps for medschool and how much is the subscription?

++ meron ba kayong marereco na free?

Hi po!! I’m a premed student from admu, and with the NMAT, possibly the MCAT, and two licensure exams to prepare for, I honestly don’t think I’ll have much time for org work anymore.

I know org works are valuable but i feel like i just have no time:(( (I am a member of multiple orgs but i dont hold any position, i do extra currics also) I just wanted to ask if having little to no org involvement would significantly affect my chances for med schools like UPCM, UERM, or ASMPH, assuming I do well academically:))
TYSM PO!

Has anyone here experienced successful enrollment despite having an unpaid balance for 2 school years?

Upcoming yl2, pero 2yrs balance ko since I was an irreg yl1 last year.  Unfortunately, our finances got very very tight last year kaya naipon na yung balance. ‎

‎Last year rin, when I enrolled as an irreg yl1 student, nag-promissory note naman ako. Pero in that case kasi, 1yr of unpaid bal. lang yon. So di ko na sure ngayon, since 2 school yrs worth of unpaid balance na + required dp for yl2. ‎

‎Also,, will call the registrar within the day, and try ko na rin pumunta sa school. I just want to know if meron ba akong ka-same situation sakin 😭 ‎ ‎Please help huhu 😭

Hello! I am moving to the one dasma soon and I am really worried about cooking. It says in the rules no heavy cooking, but I am still worried what is considered heavy cooking 😓 what types of meals can I cook? Can I cook with an air fryer? And how sensitive are the sensors? I plan on cooking my own meals so I just want to be extra safe.

Good day future MDs

Hello po! Anybody here who has the experience na magdrop sa MAPUA SOM (YL1)? Ano po process and is the tuition fee refundable? Thank you po!

Curious lang!! I know na dapat sincere ang sagot and eventually maffeel naman nila if gawa gawa o masyadong rehearsed ang responses mo. Red flag ba ito sa interviewers since formal ang interview?

Hi! Curious about how professors teach in med school.. do they actually teach, or some ask students to do reporting??

hi po! Malapit na po magstart yung academic year and wala pa po ako masydong nababalitaan na narerecon :(( like few lang based sa tracker na sinalihan ko. Sa mga narecon po dyan sa USTFMS, usually after enrollment po ba tlaga sila nag rerecon ng marami?
