The medical student in this radio documentary nearly flunked out of medical school. Instead of traditional studying/rereading he began quizzing himself after reading and started to earn As. There is an audio link below the photo.

Thank you so, so, so much man. This is interesting. Although I just skimmed through it briefly, I will read it fully after I get out of Biochem this evening. Thank you. Any more?

It's crazy how competitive med school is. I had friends in the STJ pharm program sweating bullets when they got an A-

That's all I have. I just happened to catch part of the interview when I woke up yesterday and I thought of this thread. If I find anything else I'll be sure to post it here.

ALright. Thank you. I got a chance to read it and its amazing the 180 the young man did in terms of studying and excelling in his class. Thanks for the article. I will incorporate the tips in the article in my own studying (Biochemistry this semester, etc) and will see.

Are you a pre-med or medical student?

No, I'm not interested in medicine. Education is a hobby of mine and I read and post about it a lot. I tend to focus on elementary and high school more since that is usually in the news.

Yeah medical school is extremely difficult to get into, especially if you want to go to a school with a good reputation. You might have to go to a school in another country if you're not an amazing student....and many doctors have gone that route.

Med School is difficult to get into? Keep a 3.3 and score at least a 25 on MCAT
Unless you're taking 18+ credit ours with OChem and Molecular Genetics w/labs, while working I don't see why that is so difficult to obtain?
If you vouldn't keep up in undergrad, then med school and residency were going to rip you apart. I know kids with perfect GPAs and 35s on the MCAT who have some difficulty in staying on top of all their classes.
As for the older woman who had a 3.98 and got like a 3 on the Verbal portion of the MCAT, did she study
