why do you crib so much , this is not a new information you got to know today ?

Well, if you're exercising after studying, you have the time to think about what you've just learned. If you're videogaming after studying, your mind is busy thinking about the videogame (how to pass a phase, winning the match, etc), so your brain wipes partially what you've just learned

I think math majors and physics major having high acceptance rate is more corelation than causation. Math and physics have the highest average allumni IQ (~130). The average math or physics grad is a borderline genuis. Going into these programs itself won't make you do better on the mcat.

Awesome video! Scoring that high on CARS is no small feat. Thanks for the insight! 🙏

Amazing tips. I scored 122 on cars the first time around im aiming for 126-127 next time around !

Thank you, Darren! A lot of very insightful info packed concisely into one relatively short video.

Thank you for this video!

So if we go into queen university for undergrad after 2years we will switch to queen’s medical school without any mcat??

Please lose that annoying drumming in the background.

Great video, pre reading is something I'd found helpful when I already knew about topic but never thought of using it on a routine basis. Thanks for tip

What grades were u getting in all of your classes 90+?

When talking about the courses included, then in red it says “Elective space required x2 English” what does that mean did you not have to take English?

May I know what is your comment on physician assistants? In terms of pay and workload. Thanks.

Thank you!

Can you make a video demonstrating how you implement the technique maybe with a real textbook?

I'm creating whatsapp group for international students in canada . If anyone want to join write up your contact number.

Hello I am in currently in grade 12 and want to become doctor in canada but my parents are telling me to do my undergraduate in Philippines (Hometown). Is it valuable ?? Should i do my undergraduate in Philippines and then go to canada for MD ? And what undergraduate degree should i pursue ???

Is it better to to do a co-op program at UTSC as pre-med or a normal program? Does co-op negatively affect my chances of getting into a prestigious medical school? BTW, I am an international student.

THANK YOU SO MUCH GAINED ALOT INSIGHT EXCELLENT INFORMATION

Hey, again! Less annoying music == better. Zero annoying music == best. Third time's the charm?

Thanks for the advice, dude. Super hate the annoying background music, btw.

So happy that you’re back on KZbin! Your video on cognitive load helped me tremedously to ace my courses!

this is really helpful! thank you so much!

I feel that Canadian med school youtubers don't get enough love. Thank you!

I'm just about to take my last practice test before the actual MCAT (a week from today), and I'm watching this video while eating breakfast. CARS has been my weakest section by at least 3-5 pts on every practice test I've taken so far. I know they tell you not to change your strategy right before the actual exam, but I think Im gonna give this a shot and keep practicing until test day. Whatever nonsense I was doing before isn't working so hopefully this does LOL. thanks for the vid darren!

bro didn't get a single B? bruh.

Hlo sir ,am i eligible for MCAT or MD after diploma in health related courses??

Thanks Darren. Watching this for my kids. I guess i'll need to have a lot more money saved to help them.

nice video

Sir how much student loans do you have? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.

Sir what is your post tax income as a resident doctor? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.

Sir how much do you expect to earn as an attending physician?

I appreciate you posting a mock interview video like this. This was very helpful. THANKS!

Amazing vid! Thank you for all the help and advice Dr. Chai. For the STAR/D framework of answering, specifically the Discussion component, you mentioned how in the itnerview, you should tie it back to the CanMed qualities of a physician. DO you recommend specifically mentioning those terms or would it be a better idea to simple convey those qualities through a description of the your actions in the situation? Finally I just wanted to ask whether any of these questions in your mock interview were asked in your actual interview? One again thank you for all your help and advice about your journey to becoming a physician.

Amazing video

Please drop a video (or a comment) on the skincare products you used for this video 🙏

Really, when you think about it, the whole situation for resident doctors in Canada seems a bit off. They go through so much schooling, only to earn around $60,000. That's a lot of effort for not a huge salary, especially with those crazy long shifts - up to 24 hours sometimes! Sure, if you love helping people, it might feel worth it. But then there's AI, right? It's getting so good at diagnosing illnesses, maybe even better than some doctors. Makes you wonder what's the point of all that hard work if machines are starting to do the same job? It's a big thing to think about, not just for doctors, but for all of us.

Super helpful video, thanks Darren!

I just hope getting into residency becomes easier in the coming years for IMG in Canada. Starting my med school in Nepal!

I’m also getting a 4.0 GPA in university thanks to cognitive loading. I’m not the naturally gifted type. After finishing high school with a 2.7, I learned about learning for a year (before becoming a student again). I concluded that I needed to use my working memory effectively, be in flow state, and framework everything I learned. Then I saw this video which absolutely clarified how I can improve my process.. Tysm! 🙏
