i'm a struggling 19 y/o (now) second-year medic who goes to a med school in london !! med is HARD and I am probably the world's biggest procrastinator - so I thought making one of these would keep me motivated. will be updating this frequently as a continuation of my (not so) daily 1st year blog last year! hope you enjoy x
I'll try to post my daily work schedule everyday (but knowing me, no promises here!)
Soooo, I'm only a week into 2nd year and I'm already slacking off - I've been very cheeky and I've been missing lectures the day after clubbing which is not very GMC-approved-professional of me. I really do not want a repeat of last year where everything piled up by exam season and I was a living MESS. so this week I will be focusing on getting into the momentum of studying whilst also enjoying myself by socialising and going to societies im also thinking of joining the gym this week which is funnnn (:
to do today - pharmacology ankis - vasopressin ankis
will be treating myself to a chill day today as lectures are full on tomorrow and im also too lazy aha

good luck! mine went okay but I was just so nervous - more than I had been before for some reason 😅 my previous ones had gone well so its probably me just being on 4 hours of sleep and being sleep-deprived. just be yourself and you'll be fine!! also youtube has mock osce videos which are SO helpful
haha depends on whether the actor makes it awkward
hiii okay so i woke up late because those waking-up-at-6am-for-daily-9ams really hit different and not in a good way. I'm going to spend today until around 6-7 studying then I will relaxxxx I need to buy new clothes for uni because I feel like I'm just recycling my outfits - staples I need in my wardrobe are : brown puffer, new shoes, wide legged jeans that don't drown me, more bodysuits

I had it yesterday and it went pretty well!! All my feedback was good The only thing to improve on was self belief. They said I seemed a little bit nervous (but it wasnt bc of the comms skills, i started my period and desperately needed to go to the toilet but we werent allowed to leave ) SO IM GLAD THATS DONE WITH

aw loads of people get really nervous. i was lowkey sh*tting it too but im good at hiding it when im nervous (smth about being forced to hide my emotions as a kid 💀) thank you sm we've had physical examinations since then (like osce prep?) and theyve gone pretty well. i forgot to check capillary refill time for the resp exam and the LIVER FLAP FOR GI but everything else was pretty decent. have yall done these yet? have u guys been having placements?
