24 HOURS IN THE LIFE OF A MED SCHOOL STUDENT | 3rd Year Med School Vlog (Ob/gyn Rotation)
Third year of med school is comprised of several clinical rotations. I’m currently doing my oby/gyn rotation. In my med school’s program (and I’m sure it’s true for other med school program) we are required to spend a week on "night float". The hours are typically 5pm-7am the following day. In this video, I attempt to show you guys how my night as a third year med school student went during a night float shift. Hope you guys enjoy the video! If you guys have a comment or a question please leave it down below, and I’ll try to get to it as fast as I can. Thank you!

I always get so inspired after watching your videos. I'm still an undergrad and not even planning on going to med school (more like law) but you make me wanna get to work. 💪🏻 you're goals all-around. date me.
Congrats on delivering your first baby girl that is so cool! I love your vlogs!
Wow our school curriculums are really similar especially the night flow and scrubbing in parts. Your vlog makes me want to travel the states hehe. Thanks for another great video Jamie. Love you💕

I agree. When I am tired of studying, I literally put on her videos to keep me motivated :)
Poor lady, "Last night...no, wait this morning, I went to bed at 7am...So...I woke up at 1pm", "the salad you guys saw, possibly earlier this vlog, I've no idea what's gonna go where...at this point...the salad" hahaha, aww, you can tell how much your body is not used to the weird schedule yet. I feel for ya! Stay strong :) Also, Jamie, seeing your life in medicine, upfront and personal gives me so much inspiration to go to medical school! When I think about the 4+ years, I forget that past the first two years, it is not the same as traditional school and that you actually have the privilege of being in a clinic, working, putting your knowledge into practice. Wow, to me, that is so special and definitely what I've always wanted to do! So, thank you for sharing as much as you can, when you can.
Hey Jamie, I'm in bschool and I feel so motivated to study seeing you work hard. Great job and thank you!
i study occupational therapy and seeing you work so hard inspires me! thank you for that! wish you the best!
I love your vlogs and snapchat story :) So thank you for putting in the effort to do it all

Republicans & Democrats do not need nor deserve any medical care. Doctors & nurses need to stop giving them any help. That is the capitalist way: that is the ONLY thing that matters to these subhumans.
I love, love these vlogs! It's awesome to get to see what the life of a medical student is like.
Im currently pre-med and I love seeing what med school is like. Thanks so much for putting so much effort into your videos it is so helpful and I enjoy watching them so much!
Yaaaay! More vlogs please!!! I really like watching it! Thanks for uploading again! Will wait patiently for the next vlog. 😀
I LOVE this video so much! Thank you for giving your viewers a personal and close-up look into your life as a 3rd year medical student! It was such an insightful video and I appreciate how much effort you must have put in to share this with us! Looking forward to hearing more about your rotations and what you enjoyed/found challenging :)
Woo Sunday mornings here are my favs here ! Another great vid :)) All the best for your night floats
I'm new to your channel but I'm glad I found it because I want to go to medical school as well. You're so inspiring and helpful! These videos actually keep me so motivated in my undergrad years now!
I love your vlogs! I also love how you use the pop ups & the bitmojis so adorable!
Your vlogs make me so excited for when I'm a med student. I seriously can't wait!!
Your Volgs are so amazing! As someone who aspires to join the medical field! I love love love these videos!
Watching your videos makes me really excited to begin medical school this Fall ‘18 semester 🙌🏼

Hey Jamie :) I just got into UG in India and I'm feeling soo excited about the journey ahead. Your videos help a lot. Thank you :)
Hi Jamie! You really inspire me to study hard! I admire your diligence and drive! I am taking up my MA but I see a lot of tips from your vlogs that could also help me in my studying! :)
Thank you so much for the study music recommendation! :D I'm having a barrage of exams recently and music really helps me focus on studying. Good luck in med school! :DD

As an MS2, I can't wait for the challenges 3rd year will bring! You inspired me to start my own vlog on my channel
Randomly came across your videos. As a former nursing student, it's interesting to see the perspective of a medical student. Keep up the studying! Gosh, seeing those books reminds me of the nursing school days...of which I don't want to remember or relive haha. +1 to subs, definitely looking forward to your vlogs regarding telemetry type patients in the future (I work on a cardiac tele floor) and see your experiences as a med student.
its sad because the only reason i know what shes talking about is because i watch greys anatomy😂😂😂

Hey Jamie, amazing video! As a senior pre-medical student (applying next cycle), your videos are incredible motivation. Just a small suggestion for future videos: try to level out the music to the loudness of your voice, so that headphone users don't have to keep turning the volume down and back up. Thanks, and keep the vids coming!
Congratulations on delivering your first baby!!!!
Your Vlogs give me purpose! Keep at this amazing STRIVE!!I am a fellow 3rd year too!Love,From Namibia
nice vlogs :) always watching a few before I head to my night shift :) greetings from germany
this was so fun to watch! love how you take the time to get some clips in at the hospital. I was wondering if you could do a video on working with nurses? I'm a nursing student so I'd love know what the relationship is like between nurses and doctors/med students!

Kimberly Faith same here! I am a first year nursing student and would love to know about the relationship between doctors and nurses, I always a hear a lot of bad things unfortunately but I hope they're not true
Congratulations on your first baby catch, many more to come👶👼🙌 Try a sleep mask, and ear plugs, I find them helpful for daytime sleep.
Cool to see what a days like through your lens :)
That was a really good video. I think you really covered the anxiety medstudents have toward their first night float rotation. I tried the same thing of going to sleep later the day before but in the end, the first night is always brutal. Your ob rotation sounds reallly humane. They made us do 16 hr day and night shifts every other 2 days. I didn't even make it to my bed that week. sigh. That was my worst memory, worse than my q3 27hr trauma surgery calls.
I don't know how she does it! Being a full time med student and being a youtuber that must be so hard!
I loce vvatching your vlogs .YOu're an inspiration to me !You go girl :D
I'd suggest buying one of those sleep masks to block out brightness when you sleep! I sleep better (and longer) ever since buying one since any little bit of light also keeps me awake haha. Great video :)
As always, I love the editing in your vlogs! Must be very hard to adapt to a night float. You looked very tired the day after your first night float. Stay strong!

Thank you! And yes, it definitely took some time to adjust.
always love your vlog💛
The part where you had energy all day and was not able to sleep then got tired getting in the car to work reminds of my night shift days as a nurse, worst feeling ever! And when you came back home, crashed and woke up early, except you're not grumpy like I was, haha.
You are absolutely breathtaking
hi! I'm also a med student (I'm on my 2 year) and I loved this vlog! please tell us more about your experiences!! PLEASE
Love your vlogs! Maybe a tips and tricks video for surviving night shift when you're done with OB GYN rotation? I'm hoping to get into nursing school soon and I'm probably gonna be on an overnight shift with my first hospital job so any advice would be welcomed!
I really enjoyed this vlog!
Omg I live for ur vids! Love this one >v
Love your vlogs! Thanks for taking the time to create them. Are there any books you'd recommend to study for MCAT?
Good luck Jamie ❤️❤️ LOVE FROM MIDDLE EAST
I'll start my rotation next year (4th year in my country), so thanks for this :)
Great video, could you possibly make a vid about how you deal with procrastination and tips for studying effectively? Thanks xo
your videos are so amazing! idk what it is about you but you give me such good vibes :) i wish i was as motivated as you are tbh, how do you do it? im not in med school yet but as much as i want to do well, i always find myself doing anything other than what i'm supposed to be doing (an assignment, studying...) how do you keep on track? keep up the videos btw, you're my new favourite channel!
Great vlog! I always look forward to your vlogs every saturday! Btw, what's the brand of your scrubs?
I usually can't sleep past 1:00 PM after a night shift either! Plus, it's hard not to overeat! Thank you for your vlogs!

You are such an amazing inspiration!! What are you planning to specialize in when you finish Medical School? Also, is it true that you know your 4th year rotations already????
Thank you for sharing your experience🍍🍍
Really Motivating videos !
heyyy ! thank you for your med school videos very much, my english is little bit na. but i want to tell u that i want to be a med student like u na and i won't give up! i like ur video 👍👍 😄
I'm a med student too. Its really tiresome and stressful. Lately I found out that I have anxiety disorder, even I got panic attack when it just one night before surgery exam. For some reason your videos make me calm. I learn a lot from you, from how to keep focus to manage study time effectively. Thank you so much. I wish you a very best luck for your ob/gyn rotation :) *sorry for terrible grammar, its not my main language

I'm so jealous of all the time you get to sleep! Hahaha during my ob/gyn rotation I had "night shifts" every 4 days.. and on weekends that meant that I went in at 8am and came out 8am the next morning.. or if it was sunday to monday then I came in sunday 8am and went out monday 2pm or so. No sleep time haha so sleep as much as you can! :D
love your vlogs! thanks so much for sharing. what inspires you to remain healthy through med school? i watched a couple other med school vlogs and they're constantly eating awful.
What kind of doctor are you leaning towards being? I would love to become a doctor,and I love watching these vlogs that you post when your are on your rotations!!!
you could put a sheet over your blinds really help
Hey Jamie, I don't know how to say that but in 5:37 there is a song where the girl says bad words in portuguese haha Just for you to know lol I love your vlogs! They get me inspired :D

What more important getting sleep or staying up later to fully comprehend the information (like an effective all-nighter)
I'm in my 2nd year of undergrad and just discovered your vlogs. They're really helping me to stay motivated. I'm thinking of DO school. Have you met any ?
thats really nice
Can you please talk more about the content that you learn that day? That would be nice
Great videos and a great way to see med school and life balance. What are the opening songs you use in your videos? Do you get them from the playlists you post?
Wow, the city looks amazing! How's the big apple treating you?
Can you do a video on healthy recipes for students?

Thanks so much for your videos!! I'm a first year and I was wondering about the stitches. Did you learn this skill in year 2 or during your rotations? I know at my school they have a surgery club that teaches suture clinics but I never knew if it was worth the time if I'm already going to learn in class. Thanks!
can you do a video about finances in med school and college. like tips and tricks
So much greys anatomy kinda taught me the team part 😂😂
Hi Jamie, please give us some advice abt keeping healthy during night shifts. I work night shifts sometimes and still find it so hard to keep a balance between eating healthy/ getting regular sleep/ exercise. Thanks!!
the night flow 15
I see that in your previous videos you kick start your day with a work out, can you tell us why you choose to work out in the morning?
Interesting! Is it possible for the resident / other medical staff to page you / come get you if they need you (ie. when you are resting, instead of having to get 30 minute increments of sleep)?
