Thank you for all these information

[@SK-mr6ov]

awesome

[@christophermora4114]

Thank you so much. I'm an undergrad. at lake forest college and I have aspirations to be a neurosurgeon. What are some things that you would recommended for undergrad students to get their toes wet with neurosurgery? Is there a specific job or volunteering experience that will help me decided if this is the right thing for me? Once again, thank you.

You should focus all your energy on getting into a good med school.

[@justamarvelfan9447]

I have no idea why I'm here

[@Hitherehealth]

is it possible to complete PGY-1 and PGY-2 both along, because before starting medschool, many people has also done neuroscience and neurology diplomas, which is also a part of PGY-1 year, so, is it possible?

[@lostSempaiWissame]

Kinda ?

Sir I have heard that tumer can disappear in the absence of any treatment then at what point does tumer need to be surgically removed?

[@emmanuella2642]

normally you would only remove it if a benign tumor (not harmful) starts pushing onto other tissue and blood vessels and such and create problems or if the tumor was malignant but i’m not a doctor so this is my guess

Miss. Talkative took about 20-30minutes (estimation) of talk just for herself with no useful information. Plz consider next time:)

[@gadamhudayberdi229]

But, in the end this was the best talk on the topic, and thanx for that. Anyways, this is probably short, but could have been shorter. But was good.

[@user-mq5xg1rb6c]

that can be your opinion but please be respectful and empathetic with the way you give that message. she put in a lot of effort for this along with the rest of these wonderful people, and they all deserve our respect and courtesy :)

[@gadamhudayberdi229]

@@user-mq5xg1rb6c I don't think there is disrespect in my words which includes pure reality (it depends on your definition of respect though). So, plz don't expect from anyone else to be respectful, bcz that is imaginary and you may well not understand if the one is showing respect or disrespect within the limits of truth. Btw, what I told is much more efficient for listeners, so in fact you should support me. (Sorry for being ignorant though).
