Life in Medical school (3rd Year Med Student) | VLOGMAS 1

This vlogmas shows a typical day of a third year medical school student. During third year of med school, medical school students do their clinical rotations. I am currently in my family medicine rotation. For the first episode of vlogmas, my day included getting ready for work, going to the gym, grocery shopping, and studying for my upcoming shelf exam in family medicine. The topics I studied today focused on health maintenance and screening guidelines.

My study break from Botany :3

[@sarahhill2853]

I have a hard time getting myself to sit down and study everyday...I need to find a way to motivate myself and not get distracted.

[@quentinmerritt]

Sarah Hill Just do it! But actually, if you're looking for motivation you'll never get stuff done.

[@sarahhill2853]

quentin merritt I've managed to set up a study hour every evening and so far so good. hopefully I can keep it up eventhough it's really boring and tedious. I still can't find motivation but for now I'm gonna fake it till I make it I guess

[@mattiek7526]

Hi - read the now habit by dr. neil fiore - it will change your life !!!

[@maajidjsalad8970]

[@messymakersmind]

[@nidaakhtar1048]

The only word which pops in my head whenever I watch you is "INSPIRATION " sky is ur limit girl... God bless!

[@hyelimchoi_]

[@jasmineeee2223]

You seem like you definitely have your life put together. Your really inspiring:)

[@amieelittlejohn7316]

Literally PERFECT timing for my study break! Your videos are what I look forward to!!

[@JC94022]

I'm so so happy you're doing Vlogmas this year! :) I love your channel so much, and I want to thank you tons for your videos; you keep me motivated as a bio undergrad who so badly wants to get to med school. You're the best

[@harshsilence]

I'm so glad you're going to be doing Vlogmas!! Your videos has always inspired me, and it's nice to have daily vlogs during my exam time (not to procrastinate but to be inspired, of course!) because Lord knows I need some motivation right now!

[@SoraShh]

I usually never post on videos but I'm so happy you'll be posting more. Your vlogs kept me from completely burning out.

[@KimberlyFaith01]

so excited that you're doing vlogmas! Going to look forward to these videos to motivate me during exam season

[@sarakabaam]

yes yes yeSSS YEEESSSSS for Jamie's vlogmas!!!!!! you cannot possibly understand just how happy I am!

[@carolbaez8315]

your vlogs usually calm me down haha watching during my break for my finals

[@dr.labonat.5799]

I'm a first year medical student from the Philippines . ..you are my inspiration . .so keep it up ...love u

[@CristyCinderella]

I always get so excited when you upload! I am currently a sophomore studying biology and watching your videos get me super excited for the future. Also, where did you get your phone case? It's so cute!

[@PriyankaSharma-yh6sb]

was waiting eagerly for VLOGMAS ! haha

[@claire.b2730]

Jamie you are so so impressive and I really look up to you! I definitely struggle with time management and anxiety with study and exams and I just hope that someday I'll be able to have a study life as well-managed as yours! God Bless you xx

[@nathanielhuhta3212]

I'm a music major while I'm pursuing my pre-medical studies. It will eventually take me five years to graduate instead of 4, so it's good to keep in mind how "opposite" your intended major is. Many of the sciences have the pre-med requirements built in to the major, but music obviously doesn't. Just something to be aware of :)

[@missiontomedicine]

I Just wanted to tell you, I binged watched most your VLOGMAS videos during my winter break and they were amazing! Like always, I am impressed by the quality and effort you put into your channel. Keep up the awesome job Jamie!

[@yasminrain6511]

Hi. I came across your channel today and I immediately subscribed. I am a freshman in college and I decided to pursue medical school. You are doing everything I dream of doing and this helps me a lot! There are a lot of good habits you do that I struggle with (using a planner, going to the gym) but I will start being more serious about these habits because it's very helpful. Keep up the great work. I am really inspired. I have been using KZbin for a while (wasting time) but in less than 15 minutes I learned so many things from you. It's also cool that you saw scarlet fever after seeing it in the textbook.

[@equaloskat]

ugh love your videos so much!!💞💞

[@BettyVan]

Taking a break from studying for finals. Almost done with first semester with occupational therapy school. You're super inspiring!

[@TheStrivetoFit]

Good luck with your finals!

[@xReleve]

same for me except physical therapy c:

[@creamyuni]

Hi Jamie! :) Just wanted to say I appreciate your videos very dearly, it is one of the greatest sources of motivation for my journey in medical school! I am 1st year med student in Sweden, also of Korean origin ^^ Keep up with the awesome videos! Lots of love

[@joana9042]

i'm so happy to get a new video from you everyday!

[@nfina1186]

[@puneeth7778]

Thank you for your existence

[@desiree7123]

Your vlogs are always such great quality thank you for taking the time to do vlogmas!

[@albertgiang7084]

Nice start to the series! Your cat walking across the table while you were studying made me chuckle a little 😄 So here's a couple of questions: what motivates you to keep working out? Why do you have work on a weekend? Thanks, and keep up the great work!

[@krissy4265]

What a good cat.

[@kathleenjoycapulong8912]

Yay! Haven't even started the video but i'm already so stoked!

[@Booksurfs]

It's cool how you let your cat walk all over your textbook and work area. I freak out when my dog does that. I'm scared she'll step on my laptop, press a key, and delete everything hah

[@heatherd.2301]

Your videos make me really excited for medical school!

[@aleahappling7914]

Loved this and you!! You inspire me to work towards med school! Keep up the good work!

[@theejennyhuang]

I'm exactly the same with the music thing! I go on spotify and listen to all the study music they offer, and then I eventually add my favorites into a playlist.

[@SophieHaas1]

Loved this video! You're so inspiring. Also thanks for answering my question 💓☺️

[@nicolettehunte4400]

[@amandabekka6636]

[@anmolpatted]

Don't stress over it! We'll wait 😊 And I'm so glad I'll get to see you everyday 😊 Also, I was wondering when your third year finals will be..

Hey. How do you manage your time between social activities and studies? Hoping for a study room tour video! Love ya.

[@kevserr2395]

ugh love these types of videos!

[@kakakaylee5238]

Jamie, can you make a video on fitness tips? Also, Im new to the gym life, and I don't go as often because of my anxiety. I've been followed, and get stared at quite often so it's scary. Thanks in advanced! Also, download Duolingo! I'm currently using it to improve my Spanish.

[@flammo9]

Oh shit. Shoutout to Iyanu and Jenny le, love their content.

[@afghangirl7765]

When you say you're studying, what exactly are you studying? Could you explain more? Is it the exam you have after a rotation? How do you study for it? Thanks!

[@blushying]

I'm so excited for the upcoming vlogmas videos! Also, I have a question for you: what medical books do you recommend for a student who's interested in applying for medicine?

[@MissArBell]

It would be great if you could say the time when you are doing what!:D

[@saddxprincesa]

I love your handwriting so much

[@HANACANHASI]

So would you say that it is still possible to have a social life while in med school?

[@EnjoyAndLoveYourLife]

언니 너무 예쁘고 멋있고 사랑스러워요...🙆🏻💕💕💕

[@katrinajose71]

Hey, Jamie! I was wondering if you could tell me where you get your journals to write your study notes in? I've been meaning to find a non-spiral bound notebook that can be easily taken and studied from when I commute to campus. Although I am in graduate school pursuing a different field, I really enjoy watching your videos! You give me great motivation to continue on with my studies - thank you!

[@imenemille9317]

great work .... i would love to see moooore

[@sswasn6514]

great quality!!

[@elliechen14]

Hi Jamie!! I was super inspired by you after I saw a few of your videos!! Love your cat!! Just a quick question, do you use your cell phone to film all these videos? Maybe it's been answered already, can someone else help me here?

[@Amanda.Cooper]

Can you put time stamps on the videos? Just to get an idea of the time of day and how long each task takes!

[@clarizaborile4990]

I love your mug!!

[@ricebowlbaby]

Hi I love your vids, thanks for doing Vlogmas! Where did you get your phone case?

[@eyelovemom2471]

[@thenimetyou]

Hi Jamie! I was wondering what specific career job are you looking into?

[@medjourney8763]

I love your videos!!😍

[@moniquegriffin998]

do you get paid during your rotations, if not how do you have time for a job ?

[@zeeask536]

Love this!

[@donnajonas101]

You seem to have it all figured out and it makes me feel bad haha! I am a fifth year graduated UC Davis with a biology degree and I have no idea how I will get into med school. wahhhhh

[@chloenicole2710]

Yayyyy vlogmas

[@crazyluver21]

Hey Jamie! I was wondering, what do you do for work and how many hours do you usually work considering you are a 3rd year med student? Thank you!

[@lovelygenise8178]

[@DiLLZGFX]

Do you watch youtube videos ? If so when ?

[@Everrozz]

I know it may be to personal but I am very interested in going to Medical school in NY, could you tell us what school you attend? or maybe just let us know which ones have the best ratings? Thank you!

[@karentrejo7209]

What pens do you use for making notes??

[@edwardgonzales2731]

I am looking into getting a new camera and I was wondering what kind of camera do you use? Please and thank you! :-)

Hey Jamie where did you get ur to do list flip notebook 📓

[@anmolpatted]

Ameerah Hassan it's from her new Webstore! You can find the link in the description box :D

[@rahkel99]

Can you use notes on college exams?

[@garoofiya]

I have a question, in the US you need to get a bachelor's degree before applying to medical school right? So is that a 4 year bachelor's program followed by a 4 year medical program? 8 years total?

[@chibo73]

It's usually 4 years of undergrad + 4 years of med school + at least 3 years of residency.

[@garoofiya]

You get your MD before going through residency though, right? That's how it is where I am, and I know we can apply for residency programs in the states.

[@fetyly4763]

how old are you ?

[@jaybertain2426]

Could you do a had written notes video?

[@jaybertain2426]
