Don't be this med student

I see a lot of medical students making this mistake early on and this is something that I hope I can stress to you to change your whole trajectory. So I see a lot of people that are really digging into reading textbooks and they're going to get on their iPad and they're going to underline all their content that they're reviewing. It's going to bite you later. It's just I promise you you're going to feel like you studied too much. You're so psychologically bought into what you're doing, you're like, this is it. This is what's going to change the whole game for me. And you're going to do your first test and you're going to be like, what the heck happened? What you need to do instead of this for your next test, after hopefully you don't do too terribly, hopefully you survive it. But the next test, I want you to bounce back and start from very beginning. Get a planner, plan your entire week, your whole month, everything you need to go up to your next multiple tests. Today I'm going to do these 200 board questions on Anki. Today I'm going to do these 200 board questions. It's on this topic or whatever. Today I'm going to go through and do all the textbook quizzes that we have at the back of the book or whatever. Back of the chapter. Today I'm going to go through and do the canvas quiz that we have. And then I'm going to do it all again. I'm going to keep going through it until I have gotten bored with all of it. All the content that's going to be on the test. And then the last day before the test, review it one last time. And then somewhere in there, you can throw in some lectures, but you're not getting too bogged down. You're doing the wrong thing from the start. You need to do questions until you're bored. Then you can throw in the slow review or whatever. Once you have some time, just do one last review. Just don't be that student. It was me, it was so many other people. Still see it a lot. Just learn from me. Early on, just start with the questions. Just start with the questions.
