A Typical Day of a Medical School Student | Med School Student Day in the Life

This video shows my typical day of medical school. My medical school life consists predominantly of studying and trying to maximize and be efficient with my time.
Most of my day consists of either studying, lectures and small groups. I like to start my day early so I can go to the gym for a quick workout and breakfast.
Hopefully you guys found this typical day of medical school motivational and help you decide on whether or not medical school is for you. As always, feel free to leave any questions below, and I will try to answer them to the best of my abilities.

If medicine doesn't work out or the economy tanks, the film industry would welcome you with open arms. This video was really well done.

[@fatimakhabar4267]

Bruno56 what the heck. They are all humans come on!

[@NOTJUSTAMEDICALSTUDENT]

Haha great comment. We enjoyed the video! We have started a fresh new video series to inspire, engage and inform tomorrow's doctors in our channel with the latest innovations in the medical world. Remember you're not just a medical student. Let us know what you think!

[@CarlosContreras-yv1bi]

Kristoffer P that's just that i thougth haha

[@Jayalakshmy_]

If medicine doesn't work out of the economy tanks then do hardwork you can definitely fill and take a Dr in front of your name only this happens if you're dedicated and then you feel like a film star go on. By, SKS

[@norab3669]

Some say the video is depressing. well, as a med student I can relate to this a lot... That's what we do we study as much as we can so if you're into science and human body you'll be fascinated and excited instead of bored and depressed.

[@lisa5hot]

I love my major and im super into human biology but its a sad ass video even for me

[@jennieferclarissaputri6015]

I'm not a med student yet (soon to be hehee) but learning biology about human body system is fascinating.

[@Bermetheos]

I have a question what do you do as far as making money, like how do you maintain your time. I am a freshman in college and planning on going to medical school, so a piece of advice will be highly appreciated.

[@icarus6492]

Lightning Amvs if your goal is to be a doctor, it should be your only goal. Study hard, get a scholarship. That way you only need to focus on your study and accumulate knowledge and skill. My friend tried to juggle work and medschool. He ended up dividing his focus and lost interest in both halfway through the course. Medschool is an all or nothing kind of thing. Only after you become a doctor do you really have the freedom to choose a more financially sufficient lifestyle. If you really need some side income in your student years, try tutoring your juniors or work at a library. Or just Something where you can study and work at the same time.

[@Bermetheos]

Lionelson Norbert thanks for the advice

[@geoabraham9744]

Typical day of an organized medical student* 🙄

[@naomisilva9962]

Tell me about it 😂😂😂😂😂

[@orangeoranges6727]

dude you've got an interesting first name

[@blank_line]

And a rich one I usually just run for the bus after I wake up

[@cynthiahussein1009]

In my country geo is short for geography

[@HASSAN-ey2qf]

Cynthia Hussein which country

[@klcee030]

I don't really understand the comments about how everyone is saying that the music is depressing. In fact, the overall theme of the video ties in with the song. It's soft, relaxing, and most importantly simple. Simple just as how a medical student's life is. Maybe the melody is a little slow and saddening but I also feel that's the idea of pursuing into becoming a doctor. You study a lot and see a lot of horrible shit that most people can't bear to see (blood, wounds, abused patients, etc...) The video was beautiful and so is your choice of music :)

[@egidefiska]

Kimberly Wu as a medical student, my life is super thug🤣🤣🤣 just full of study and sort of thing.

[@dodramswami4176]

Kimberly Wu blood wound and???? I want to know more... What etc??

[@samruddhibdaryapurkar8365]

Kimberly Wu which song is this

[@choijin3095]

This 8 year old video is one of the reasons why I got inspired to be a doctor. I was just a kid when I first watched this and it gave me an insight on what it looks like to devote all of your life to serve others who are in dire need or at the precipice of their lives. Yes, pursuing medicine is hard, it is not a walk in the park. It is meant to break you, but in those shattered pieces of yourself, you began to build a better version of you.. a better healthcare professional. I am currently on my pre-med and I would be applying for med school next year. And if things would go well, I would dedicate my life to individuals who require medical care. To the owner of this channel, I hope you realise that the videos and vlogs you have made, have inspired millions of people like me to pursue such rewarding vocation.

[@AmoreMiu]

Great video but the music haha so depressing

[@AdioEmerica]

It's pretty accurate to how it feels

[@AmoreMiu]

+Ben Johnson well maybe it feels that way to you because it's not your dream to have that career in the future

[@roy9161]

+Ben Johnson yup I'm a medical student as well, very depressing to much of everything

[@roy9161]

+Twinkle Junior in what way??

[@opocoyo]

yeah, made me feel so sad and made the day seem depressing :(

[@howleme5903]

Remember watching this 1st time 5 years ago before entering med school now im in my clerkship amazing how time passed this video inspired me a lot thank you☺️🙏

[@fransiscadias7930]

Same, first time I watched this, I was a first year med student and I'm now a GP. Her videos helped me through med school.

[@BeautyByRi868]

this is so heartwarming to see. i'm about to start my first year in med school this summer and the cycle continues haha@@fransiscadias7930

[@ctscan2801]

I am a medical student myself and I can confirm that this is NOT a typical day of a med student This is a typical day of this specific student

[@ericmanso7355]

LOS Locos Lol right what time do typical classes start

[@ctscan2801]

Eric Manso this semester I have my internal medicine rotation everyday at 10:30

[@i.ak.1684]

how much time do you spend in classes, how much time do you spend studying on a typical day?

[@okn3297]

Man this video brings some memories back, I remember using it as motivation to get into med school, finally made it into one of my dream schools

[@karrbaddleywalter7764]

Medical Student here in the Beautiful Islands of Fiji. I first came across your Chanel when I was in first year all stressed out and looking for ways to study and tackle the assigned workload. I was really inspired by your videos and they really helped me get on with studies when I ran out of motivation. I am now in 5th year. Thank you so much for your incredible videos.

[@mohsinbutt226]

I'm a medical student studying in London. I've never posted comments on KZbin videos but I felt your video deserved one - they are incredible! Please continue taking videos and good luck with med school x With love, your friendly London Medical student

[@TheStrivetoFit]

+Mohsin Butt thank you so much for your sweet comment! Good luck to you too! :)

Hareethha Chandru exactly, obviously it isn't as aesthetic as shown in the video but we can do it!!

[@cosgoode6866]

If she wants to do it, she can. If she has a passion for it, she can do it. Even when she has loads of debt, a very busy schedule, and very little free time, she’s doing what she loves. Saving lives.

1:21 Pathoma... Only a med student knows how precious of a gem it is...

[@veronicagonzalez8713]

I love music like this so to me it isnt depressing. Its haunting and beautiful. Plus love the vid.

[@kali29]

As a med student I totally relate with the studying part but... don't you have friends ? it's really important to go out and see other people when you're in med school because it's such an intense life and beeing alone is the worst (sorry for the bad english i'm belgian)

[@anjanilarasati3720]

In my opinion, it’s okay to just be alone and study. But at least having a few friends and being in the normal social life (not going out too much, normal life of a dedicated student in my definition) is okay!

[@hanya6727]

À

[@josephmusondah7739]

The music and the video has explained everything we face in medicine.......

[@Sophia-st3eo]

It feels like a movie~ it was like you took me with you in your life too, thank you

[@ПетрКоруша]

Careex is a good option for creating a professional, informative website. You will be able to represent your medical services in the most attractive way. Medical e-web.top

[@leahfaron4421]

I’m in nursing school and I can totally relate to this (despite the public’s belief, we take hard classes and study for many hours a night) Also! For those questioning why the lecture was so empty, it’s probably because it’s 1) recorded so you can watch it from home 2) just better to read the textbook or 3) there’s a big exam tomorrow 😹 Good luck to all perusing a health career.

[@busrabalaban8313]

i love when the music went slow while you entering the class it was so perfect and so magical

[@nada2878]

Im a med student too and this hit me deep :( good luck to all med students out there. Its a hard journey but we'll make it!

[@Tanya-ic9tx]

I used to watch this video all the time when I was in secondary school to manifest the kind of life I wanted to lead. Now, I'm going to be an SHO in less than a week :)

[@alvinanakao8024]

Really enjoyed the video! Laughed when I saw the title of the lecture that you went to (displayed on the screen)... we had our first Chronic Kidney Disease lecture today in med school! hehe. Thanks for your videos :)

[@TheStrivetoFit]

thanks for stopping by! Good luck with med school :)

Omg. We have the same two alarm clocks. Sunrise is the best isn't it?! And old school loud as heck for just in case. I like it.

+Nick Longo Undergrad is cake compared to medschool. Enjoy it while you can.

[@ЕлизаветаШтополь]

I watch this video everyday before go yo the university. It really inspires for studying (not only med students).. Thank you very much 😍💫😌

[@sandralewis8410]

me too! i always watch this before studying. Nursing major here. It makes me feel better about the fact that that's literally what my life consists of. Just studying and working out.

[@aliabdullahrizwan6774]

Got my confirmation letter today. Secured a seat in my desired med school. This video just hyped me up even more

[@atikacute2598]

which med school?

[@asmahaque8558]

I'm in med school and I don't know why the video has such truthful vibes. Like we do the all normal stuff that everyone does, but I guess med school is just a lil sadder.

[@chelseas.4789]

Love this video! It's so aesthetically pleasing!! The editing is everything!

[@nehemiah3051]

Please make this video available offline. Somehow this gives me motivation and I watch it everytime I feel like my willpower needs a boost. 😁

[@yramecarg3549]

We basically wake up, study, eat, study, go to school, study, eat, study sleep repeat

[@QYTube13]

I feel this in a spiritual level as a fellow med student. Havüng my make-up exams right now. Everyhing is troubling, you cant sleep or eat or hang out without thinking if you can make this good. Sometimes everything is too much so i wish all the best to my fellow med students. Stay alive to keep people alive, it is worth it

[@PraveenKumar-bc4wj]

Music is soothing and relaxing ....just the way their life is..

[@leslierodriguez6547]

This is only my second video that I've watched for your channel and yore such an inspiration to me. You're such a hard worker and you motivate me to do better continuously. Keep going.

It's nice to see what's it's like to study medicine from a medical student's perspective.

[@yangzhang2536]

Now I'm taking summer class and working full time I need to wake up at 5:45am and when I get home it's like 9pm. I feel very exhausted and little energy to keep my study going. I need some motivation from you!! Thanks for making this!!💛

See this is the thing I'm scared of. As much as I love medicine I have hobbies and they are going to be hard to give up. But I love medicine anyway.😳 But my hobbies😢😢
