[@Dr.Nellah]

Thank you Tino! thats such a compliment x

[@brittaneymichelle5110]

Throwing this out there , I really like studying mostly at night , when its almost the time I go to bed , so when I am trying to sleep , I am thinking about the revised information. I don't know but it kinda works ! Great video !

[@Dr.Nellah]

Yeah I get what you mean! I like to keep my sleep cycle pretty normal and at optimum so I always study during the day and evening but i totally agree with the thinking of your work before bed thing it happens to me sometimes lol

[@basicallyboi]

You always inspire me alot.. I try to study for my med course and i just give up at times.. I'm glad you are here to push people like me

[@Drzeezy]

[@Dr.Nellah]

[@theresangondaimene520]

[@nilleyi2231]

[@Dr.Nellah]

Thank you so much! Thanks to God for real x

[@theresangondaimene520]

Where did you see her bed 🤔

[@fatima-xs6sn]

my routine is perfect but when exams hit I loose it

[@Dr.Nellah]

lol tell me about it!! i think that's the rest of us tbh for the most part.

[@dilsteph]

love your content, I'm also a UK medical student studying in Ukraine. So its nice to see such blogs

[@Dr.Nellah]

oh thats cool! how is it there?! x

[@dilsteph]

Nellah Grace it's ok actually, but the only thing is the language barrier, which doesn't allow us to communicate with patients effectively. I'm in fifth year now, and I actually have to write Plab too :(. xxx

[@Dr.Nellah]

Oh do you not learn the language as part of your curriculum? I see what you mean though it can be very hard and oh wow you're nearly done thats so good!

[@littlegiant101]

u're lucky, we have an exam every 2 weeks. soooo guess how often I study. ...as much as i breathe if ure wandering .

[@ashleythe8371]

I love love your videos! keeping it real yet staying positive :) amazing!! are there any simple actions that may perhaps make a day better or less stressful? thanks xoxo

[@maxinewillis]

Hey, I'm a medical student from South Africa. I was just wondering do you have any motivation tips/advice for when you just don't have the motivation to do much?

[@zolisankabinde5613]

Hello. I'm from South Africa too. Where are you studying?

[@maxinewillis]

Im studying at the University of the Free State in Bloemfontein. Where are you studying?

[@zolisankabinde5613]

I'm at Sefako Makgatho Health Sciences University, previously known as MEDUNSA.

[@gracep8395]

South Africa represent

[@zolisankabinde5613]

YES!!!

[@megaramyths9930]

Recently came across your videos and love them :) Are you study in Lithuania then? If so, will you have to take further exams to be able to practice back in the UK?

[@Dr.Nellah]

Hey thank you! it means alot and yes i am studying here and no i don't the degree is accredited :)

[@nafstudies8648]

Nellah Grace so your going to stay there

[@Indowendie]

Does your brain not need glucose to work well? Maybe drink something that contains some before you take the test. What do other people think about this?

[@ayamahmoudi9627]

so inspired by you

[@Dr.Nellah]

Thank you! that really means alot to me x

[@IcrazySomaliBeautyxx]

Have you moved houses ? Your background looks a bit different! Super excited for med school 😭😭

[@Dr.Nellah]

Hey yes i have! I share a different apartment with my friend now :)

[@IcrazySomaliBeautyxx]

Nellah Grace oh thats cool, can we expect a house tour after exams ? ;)

[@Dr.Nellah]

Maybe I'll do a room tour later on in the year yes x

[@ASDAPIX]

Do you need work experience for uk med schools or not?

[@blonyynka]

oh gosh I remember this exam in my second year🤓 I was so scared that I won't pass it, but everything went just fine, wish you luck! P.S yesterday I had pediatrics exam, it took 5 hours😭 It was over 200 questions in a program... Believe me you will turn back and think oh my it was so easy back then when I was in 2nd year haha :)

[@Dr.Nellah]

me too! haha WHAT?!! that's crazzy i do not look forward to that at all lol.

[@aleshabrown2208]

which university do you attend

[@Dr.Nellah]

LSMU in lithuania x

[@Yunes_Tebi]

10 hours of studying daily 😩😩

[@Dr.Nellah]

lol gta do what you gta do man. the struggle is real

[@dayannaortiz2257]

I am actually doing my senior research paper and I was wondering if I could email you a couple questions to answer as a med student. Please let me know!

[@Dr.Nellah]

Sure I would love that, that would be interesting. My email is in the bio :)

[@mahla96]

Hey I study physiotherapy have you got any tips to study anatomy because I'm finding things hard to memorise :( loved your vid btw x

[@Dr.Nellah]

I would say draw pictures and make acronyms for structures and also learn with your own body. Just start naming your own body parts and use yourself as a model i think that helps alot. Also try to not just memorise but learn according to functions sometimes thats easier too. Time is what you need and keep practicing.

[@crystalquartz7883]

Is it hard???? Sorry for asking SUCH a stupid question

[@Dr.Nellah]

No! lol it's not hard, just alot of work to take in, in shorts periods of time. But its not difficult. I'm actually talking about this topic in my next med school video so it's not a stupid question at all!! It's completely valid. So keep an eye out for that video :)

[@fusionnnn2000]

in what year are you ?

[@Dr.Nellah]

2nd :)

[@lolalukie713]

Do you find time to exercise regularly? That's not a criticism I'm just curious if you make that a priority or not!

[@Dr.Nellah]

Hey! yes I do, i love exercising (i have a lot of videos about exercise) haha. I just didn't in this video because I didn't have time my exam was literally the next day. I would go crazy if i didn't exercise or stay active lol

[@IvannaperezElkIP123]

You remind me of me. Thanks for the helpful video ^.^

[@Dr.Nellah]

oh that's cool haha and you're welcome :) x

[@IvannaperezElkIP123]

Nellah Grace I say that mainly because this is how I work. And yay, you replied :D

[@Dr.Nellah]

I have to work like that otherwise nothing goes in lol and of course!

[@clearlyshola3303]

you have nails!! i thought i had to give that up

[@Dr.Nellah]

haha girl not yet!! I refuse, they are not so strict on us yet, maybe next year. Which is so sad :(

[@ValVlogs]

what's the name of your background music pls?

[@Dr.Nellah]

Hey hun its in the description box just search the name on soundcloud it should come up :) x

[@ciaraknowes4044]

What country do you live in

[@Dr.Nellah]

I study in Lithuania, but I'm from England :)

[@RAin-rp7tl]

Is it 3 modules per year ?

[@Dr.Nellah]

Noo like 6-8 lol i wish it was only 3!

[@tahmed1995]

Which medical school do you go to?

[@Dr.Nellah]

hey i go to LSMU in lithuania x

[@masonbaby16]

What was your undergraduate major ?

[@Dr.Nellah]

Hey, I did Biomedical Sciences x

[@sammy6484]

Koooooolll

[@Jasminemakeupxoxo]

just saw your previous apartment tour, did you move?

[@Dr.Nellah]

hey yes i did :) x

[@adex8616]

What a level did you do

[@Dr.Nellah]

Hey I did Chem, Bio, Maths, Critical Thinking, General Studies and Art - Fashion :)

[@adex8616]

would just BIOLGOY CHEMISTRY AND SOCIOLOGY allow me to do medicine in UNI

[@Dr.Nellah]

yes for sure, you only really need Chem, Bio, Maths any of those combinations.I just did extra coz i could lol

[@adex8616]

is it acceptable if i dont do math, as its not one of my strongest subject and i would rather not do it for a level, but i will still love to do medicine

[@Dr.Nellah]

It all depends on which universities you want to apply to and what their requirements are. Maths is not usually a must but it helps to show your academic capabilities. So i think just do some research to see which universities you would like to go to and what they require :)

[@Aa11qq]

i don't get how anyone can study in bed haha

[@Dr.Nellah]

my housemate always says that! She falls asleep. I need to be comfortable when I study so now i'm used to it lol

[@theresangondaimene520]
