In my med school you can start either in August or January and I did in January back in the day. I’m about to finish med school in December and let me tell you, your vlogs are making me quite nostalgic. These are very fond memories that I wish I had on film, only a couple of photos remain of those days. I’m sure they’ve all told you a thousand times over about all the stress, the never ending sleepless nights, the fact than you’ll have time for almost nothing (outside med school related activities) and everything that comes when you choose this path, and they are right. It’s been incredibly demanding and exhausting, both physically and mentally, and it’s been incredibly awesome as well, specially when you actually start working with patients (I could tell 100 stories). But let me tell ya, and every other student starting med school that might read this, it’s been so worth it, all of it and I wouldn’t change a single thing (well, maybe one or two). I hope you learn to enjoy it, even in the middle of it all when you feel overwhelmed, that you enjoy it even then. Best of luck to you all.

Shaun Andersen, MS1 Well, I actually can’t study medicine in school, I live in Egypt and here you have to decide what you want to study in college two years prior, so you can choose to study biology along with other 6 subjects and then you will be able to study medicine in school or you can choose to study mathematics and the same 6 subjects and then you will be able to go into engineering or computer science, so the only difference between the two is whether you want to study biology or mathematics, so I chose to specialize in mathematics because I am really not that good at biology 😂, so I am probably going to study CS in school, such a long boring story, I know 😂.

Use One Note on that iPad. It'll be your best friend, believe me. Additionally, prep yourself. They warn you that either in first semester or second semester you'll be hit with a 'shock' on how hard it is. So if you breeze through first sem like some do, be wary, because second sem is a whole other beast. Then again, Aus med school might be different- here, at my med school, we do a thesis or coursework set of topics. Basically, we do research, or we do coursework and do half a post graduate cert while in med school, so. Take my word lightly cause there's probably big differences between our med courses.

@@ShaunAndersen I'm still in undergrad! Rising Junior this Fall :)) I start late August, like everyone else haha. I'll catch up to you in 2 years though!!

I’m so happy for you! I’m only in high school but I really hope to one day be in your shoes. I’ve been interested in medicine since the seventh grade and it would be pretty cool to actually end up having a job in the profession I’ve loved since I was 12

You will absolutely be in my shoes one day! It is awesome that you are so young and already thinking about it! But please make sure you also focus on having fun right now since you are so young!

Shaun Andersen, MS1 thank you! I just hope that things will work out in the end. It just kind of excites me that in a few years I’ll be able to hopefully decide on my own future and later on, study something I’m actually passionate about

God bless you! good luck! I am a current PA. Glad to see happy minded people like you

That is awesome! I have worked with many awesome PAs! What setting are you working in? Also, thank you so much for the kind words! :)

Awesome what your dean said, "Nobody gets in by mistake." I know cause I just graduated last year haha. All the best for this amazing and gruesome journey ahead.

Good luck! I'm currently in PA school and it's tough, alot of material. As you may know PA's are able to work in all specialties and we are taught under the same model as medical schools. It's stressful but it's amazing how much I have learned.

I had a huge respect for PAs and I have worked with many of them! They can be very autonomous depending on the setting and can often times be just as good as seeing a physician! Good luck in the rest of your PA education! :D

Thanks, be prepared to sacrifice some of your social life. I have no social life, all I do is study. 🙃 I rarely even talk to my mom but I know at the end my sacrifice will be worth it. When you feel stressed or hopless just remember what brought you there and how many people you will be able to help when you are done 🙌

Loving the videos, keep it up man!

Thanks so much Brett! :D

Look up Boards & Beyond, Pathoma and USMLE Step 1 First Aid. Everyone learns differently (personally I don’t like Anki, but some swear by it), but those three were my best friends during the first two years and a lifesaver when it comes to preparing for the step 1. I highly recommend them!! Also, take care of your mental health! It’s normal to feel burned out (especially towards the end of your 2nd year) and have the imposter syndrome, I’m a 6th semester Med student here in Vegas as well and I still feel it at times. But you just have to shake it off and keep pushing forward! Eventually those feelings will subside with time.

excited to see your journey man, good luck !

@@ShaunAndersen I'm also in the honors college so I need to take 3 more classes, statistics, Span 227, and evolution to graduate. Which I could have done in the Fall and be done but I also got accepted into the RAMP program for the year so I can't graduate in Fall. Lol. Yikes. I'm still taking bio classes I find interesting. This upcoming fall, I am taking evolution/Biol 415 with Stacy , 2 honors class, span 226, Biol 475-neurobiology. In the Spring, I want to take Human physiology with Utz and histology. I talked to Ashley Sylvester about what I should do and she defs told me to focus more on like shadowing and stuff because I have enough extracurriculars which relieved me on one side and then freaked me out. Hahahahha. I am not applying this cycle. I wish. Lol. I know I don't have enough clinical experience to apply and get in so I'm focusing on that this year (: I don't know what I'm supposed to do my in gap year but... There it is. Lol. Any advice?

I enjoyed the vlog, I am currently applying to med school as well. Can't wait for my first vlog too really! It's been a journeyyyyyy trust me guys!!! Fingers crossed 🙏🙌❣️💪
