Do I Need to Diversify my Clinical Experience? | OldPremeds Podcast Ep. 300

[@jamiebenson5505]

This is Dr. Gray’s most unhinged video yet and I am loving it

[@gnbntly1]

I have been following most of your videos and I give you credit for my ability to tell my story. 1 application cycle and I have an acceptance!! Thank you for everything you do!

Been an ICU RN for 6 years, a nurse for 10. Worked this pandemic and travel nursed at various COVID-19 ICUs on the Eastern seaboard. Hope that counts for something when I apply in the near future.

[@lickinglemons2358]

ICU nurse and RN for 10 years? They better show you respect! Please take this guy’s advice so you get in, we need people like you.

@@lickinglemons2358 Med schools nowadays don't seem to give a shit about pertinent clinical experience. If I don't demonstrate the academic aptitude, there's no reason for ANY institution to take me over some some zit faced, wet-behind-the-ears, 21 year old with stellar scores but couldn't tell apart an enema to save his life.

LMAO Dr. Gray was gonna say "The MCAT is hard and the MCAT, is important," -our least favorite ad on youtube

[@jarenmullen3565]

Hey Dr. Gray, thanks for the content and your books. I’m going to make a request for a summary / some sort of takeaways for each video. Especially for the application renovations. It’s just tough to go through hours and hours of them. I’m speaking 70% as a busy working joe applying rn and 30% as someone used to 5-10 min or less content.

“The MCAT is important…” that part of the video was triggering 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@kylelogan3923]

I love dr gray ! He went in! Another reason with my low MCAT I’m applied mainly DO

[@jamie91995]

I often wonder this because my only clinical experience is in a nursing home, so I don’t interact with doctors or see what it’s like in a hospital

[@kaileytometich3303]

The MCAT is hard, the MCAT is important...

[@faizanashraf769]

Question: Might have been asked before... I have been volunteering at an underserved community clinic where I interact with patients while taking their vitals, explaining labs to them (H-pylori, blood draws, urinalysis, hepatitis, etc) and explaining the lab results and doctor's notes to patients while working and taking notes on when doctors interact with patients, this is a clinical experience for sure. Now, during the Covid pandemic, I have been working (paid) at my University's Covid 19 testing Kiosk where we take vitals (temp, symptoms, etc) and collect samples for covid testing from community members and students, and staff. Is this considered a clinical experience?

[@theAnubis09]

I dont know what the channel owner thinks, but I think this is certainly clinical experience. Its amazing you've gotten this experience, I would talk about this during interviews and stuff. In medical school people love reflecting on things, so do some of that and get critical (even harsh) feedback about your reflections. It'll go a long way.
