sketchy!! and the Pepperdeck anki. i didnt watch sketchy pharm but i hear it was great

@@oreofeoladapo can you please share this Anki deck

Thanks for adding! Yeah at my school the lab coat isn’t a hard requirement for anatomy lab but it’s safe to say 90% of people wore one over their scrubs. And the lunch box is true! I didn’t think of it because I almost always buy food there or eat at home💀or starve😭

i read this 300 page document. Don’t remember what it was called, MCAT Bros i think

Thank you🥹🥰

The real exam is pass/fail, but the practice exams still give scores (UWorld gives a three numbered score, the NBME’s give an estimated % correct, and there are calculators online to convert to an estimated 3 digit score)

Sure my email is [email protected] but i suggest you do introspection concerning your personal and career goals, your school options, where you would like to go regardless of bs/md, where you would want to go for bs/md, etc.

Appreciate it! Wishing you the best with med school💕

I did that but It depends on your other coursework, how much you’re struggling/excelling at physics, how far your test is, other obligations, etc.

Congratulations! My email is [email protected] but I haven’t been in undergrad for a while so I may not have the most up-to-date info

I have no idea! But I highly doubt it’s all that different tbh. I downloaded free versions online that were pretty accurate. Maybe check reddit.

@@oreofeoladapo Thank you for you respond 😊

Probably dirty medicine. But i also watched mehlman medical videos of him going over questions i think lol. My apologies for the confusion!

Thank you💕 I don’t completely remember but I’m 100% wearing the Smashbox Gloss Angeles lipgloss in “Traffic Jam”. I probably also have NYX Professional Suede Matte Lip Liner in “Club Hopper”. I may or may not have the Too Faced Melted Matte Liquid Lipstick in “Poppin’ Corks” underneath the gloss

Glad it helped!

LOL it’s part of the soundtrack playing in the background😂 not a ghost I promise!

Of course! Glad you enjoyed

It’s less about what school you went to but more about what opportunities you take and what opportunities you create. There’s so much more to who you are as a person and an applicant, so don’t let something you can’t control discourage you from putting in the efforts to do what your heart sets out to do. I doubt many programs look at an application and go “he/she went to xyz high school, NEXT”💀but obviously resources may come into play so if there’s something your school doesn’t offer seek the opportunities elsewhere (i.e. community programs, online resources, cold emailing, etc)

I’m glad to hear it was beneficial💓💓anytime!

@@oreofeoladapo can you share the link of Anki deck and is it the same the pepperdeck Anki

Aww🥰🥰thank you! Wishing you the best with your studies!

Anyone can apply! my cohort was only about half black lol

@@oreofeoladapo cool thanks. My cousin looked into howard. Man, they make you jump through hoops even after acceptance as entry into med school is no guarantee. It’s like applying as a regular student.

@@Beck-Stein I definitely feel what you’re saying lol. they largely hold us to a similar standard as other applicants, but when choosing a program it’s a matter of what you value. Howard bs/md has the edge on almost every other program (except just umkc i think) in that it’s a 6 year program, (plus your undergrad scholarship extends into the first 3 years of med school) which helps save a LOT of money and time. Also the fact that you don’t have to apply to multiple med schools saves money and energy. As someone whose main reason for bs/md over regular track was finances and time saved by taking less unnecessary courses, howard was my dream program (also howard was my dream school bs/md aside). But if your cousin or anyone else prefers to maximize the ease of the process (i.e. completely avoiding mcat), there are programs that offer that too. But apply broadly because all of these bs/md and early acceptance programs are competitive as hell lol

@@oreofeoladapo competive as hell is right. He is stressing over everything as there is little margin for error. So if you do a six year program you don’t get a bachelor’s degree? Which is useless going on to med school i guess. That’s a lot of money saved. I didn’t look at it that way.

@@Beck-Stein in my program you do 2 years of actual undergrad coursework (about 90 credits), take/pass the MCAT, then start med school. You do receive your bachelors at the end of your second year of med school (so after 4 years in the program), you just don’t need all 120 credits to obtain it

Aww thank you🥰 glad you enjoyed

Just say "I haven't passed yet." Don't take it as a failure but see it as a learning opportunity. There is a lot of power in "Yet", you are telling yourself that you will get there and that your eyes and heart are still fixed on your goal.

Well! Mann I've taken the Step 1 for the second time now and still didn't succeed, I wonder how those who succeeded did it

I failed 3 times, and I lost money to reviews that never helped but the major thing is that I've not lost hope

I took the step 1 last month. I'm very disappointed, the exam is not even close to the practice material that the prep book sells online. The level of difficulty is like 5x or 6x.

I'm sorry about your plight my friend but I was once in your shoes before I was recommended to Mr Richard Brown and that's how I passed My STEP 1

I read most of it (around 80% probably) but not necessarily cover to cover. Read it based on what you personally think you need

Passing the test is a challenging and frustrating experience. I believe that it's not just about studying, but also about having God's grace to succeed.

It's true.

I studied with my cousin, but she spent more time on her phone than studying. Despite this, she passed the Step 1 test while I failed. When I asked her how she did it, I found out that she received help from Mr Richard.

Frustration can be a positive sign. It indicates that the solution to your problem is close, but your current approach isn't working. You need to change your approach to achieve your goal.

You will pass. Everyone has their own season. Just keep going, pray, and believe that you will receive your breakthrough. 🙏

😂nah, just cute decor i guess. Got it from an ENT workshop

❤❤❤❤❤❤

It was good! I’ll have a vlog for it sometime in the future

Thank you!!🫶🏾🇳🇬🇳🇬

Happy new year and thank you! The skull does not have a name (maybe i should give it one😂). It’s called a shelf because it’s made from old Step exam questions that are no longer being used and have been “put on the shelf” if that makes sense

If you’re not at a school that has time constraints for when to take it, it honestly depends on how you’re doing on NBME’s in your opinion. If you’re not currently passing, i’d give myself at least 1-1.5 months to work towards a passing score. But the registration process can take a while in itself. I registered before i even started dedicated studying and worked towards my test date.

Hey! I won’t take step 2 until the summer/fall of this year, so it’ll be some months lol

8 weeks of dedicated, but i feel all the time spent getting the foundation during M1-M2 played a role as well

Of course! I’m glad you enjoyed

No, thank YOU for tuning in🫶🏾I appreciate you!💕

Hi! I believe at Howard all freshmen have to live on campus, but after that you don’t have to, and this applies to bs/md students as well

You dont have to live on campus I didnt as a freshman and I was BSMD

Hi! The actual step 1 exam doesn’t report your score, but the practice tests do. There still is a minimum passing score on the real thing, they just don’t tell you your exact score

I don’t remember all of them but 4 years honors english, math up to AP calculus AB, honors spanish up to level 4, g/t earth science bio and chem, standard physics, g/t biotech, anatomy/physiology, and a bunch of other classes i don’t remember💀that was a while ago for me

No unfortunately

@@oreofeoladapo do you have an idea what % of students typically meet the requirement?

Yes, but some schools are more open to international students than others so do your research. Be sure to fulfill all your premed requirements

Hi! I usually study alone lol but if you’re in school currently, asking your classmates is a good place to start. If not, you’d have to seek elsewhere for other people taking the same tests. I’m not 100% sure what the options are
