@@michaelryan_pa I do have one more..... study strategies for pharmacology. Ugh! I took that class this semester, and although I got an A, I still had a hard time keeping the classes of drugs, and even worse, the individual drugs, straight. Side effects, contraindications, when to use, when not to use... etc. Do you have an awesome "pro tip" on that one?!? (your pro tip in this video is stellar!)

A trick: watch movies at Kaldrostream. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies these days.

Starting PA school in August. just found your youtube channel + love it already!!!! thank you for these.

The table of contents idea is brilliant!! Thank you!!! ♥️♥️

Wow excellent video, I start my PA program Jan 4th will try these methods. THANKS!

The table of contents idea works really well! I stared it this quarter and my grades have improved and I think it just helps remember things better. Thanks for sharing these tips!

I've been bugging out about this. I start didactic in May. Your calm and level headed approach makes me feel so much better. At the beginning of college I was a 100% note card and study guide gal. A piece of me still is but as I went in to my junior and senior year it became impossible to find the time to make notecards and study them for every class, so I started just reading through the powerpoints. I've been so nervous about learning how to study in PA school again but this seems like the most realistic approach while not wasting my time.

Congrats on acceptance. You will still go through finding your study groove. These videos are to help save you time from going through timely mistakes. It will be stressful but you will get through it. Try to enjoy it and remember you signed up for it and are learning to save lives! Let me know if you have any questions.

Great great great videos

You literally made PA school sound ALOT better than I assume it would be like. Wish I had these tips during undergrad for my science classes.

Peace be to you! This is a great channel! I love your up-beat attitude! It's so interesting for me to hear about "saving notes on clouds"! 20 years ago, we thought "black boards" and "smart boards" huge innovations. Howard's PA program didn't have ANY of these though. I still received a good education though.

Any advice/tips for anatomy in pa school?

Wish I could have seen this before this second semester. In first semester I learned it takes too much time for me to make study guides most of the time. A lot of people in our classes make study guides and we have ones from previous classes so I just use those after I go over my powerpoints. I’m already behind so it’s going to be hard to get caught up and ahead but I’m going to try. Right now just trying to pass. Stressing so much. But the semester is halfway done. But now next semester I should be better with understanding what to do and organize my time. And I literally don’t do anything except school, go to the store for food, cook, I do go to the gym for an hour Saturday and Sunday. And sleeping. That’s about it. Studying now for my ophthalmology CMS. Planning on slowly reviewing all the slides today and then hopefully i can just read over study guides tomorrow. He says his tests Havnt been bad for people usually. We will see. Then a heme CMS on Friday. So I’ll start working on that.

I’ve been out of college for 5 years before getting accepted so it’s hard for me also because I have to relearn everything. Whereas other kids graduated last year and it’s more in their head.

Hi! I’m a pre PA. What would you recommend for someone who is more of a visual learner? I find it tough to figure out what will work as far as visually noting concepts.

@michaelryan_pa

4 жыл бұрын

I too was a visual learner. It depends on the subject matter. For the most part (even in undergrad) I studied in front of a large dry erase white board, and would also write all notes on those large cardboard white sheets. Talked about this briefly in one of my videos kzread.info/dash/bejne/kWSIuKOupZivXZs.html

Also did you use any outside resource such as osmosis picmonic medcomics quizlet? at which point in this system did you fit them in? Is it during the table of content step? I am a visual and auditory leaner and found youtube videos as an excellent resource in the past.
