Any fellow queerios slogging through medical school like me? (I’m in the middle of my 2nd year) if so message me!
-
I’m finishing up my first year of optometry school.
-
That’s cool; how many years do you have to go? Do you just do a lot of eye exams and neuro?
-
Three more after this year. We also do a ton of optics, a lot of neuro and ocular anatomy, and a little general anatomy. And then a lot of learning how to actually do an eye exam.
How about you? Med school going well? Any specialty picked out yet?
-
minimum of 5 years after this (oy). I LOVE NEURO TO THE MAX. by far my favorite subject. we don’t choose our specialties until after clinical rotations (1 year from now)…but leaning towards neuro, obygyn, or internal med.

Hey !
So, I’m an MD between residencies. First one was in Family Practice and the next one in 2013 will be Preventive Medicine. And because I’m a glutton for grad school punishment, it has an MPH embedded in it….*sigh*
Special shout out to all you med students and resident colleagues, PM and say hello!

hey :) i’m in med school–almost finished with my third year, thank GOD.
-
Cool! Where do you go to school? I can’t wait to be done with my second year and actually start clinicals. How’s it going so far?
-
I go to school on the east coast (PM me if you want more specifics. I’m happy to give them, just not on a public forum.) And so far, so good. The first two years are a pain, so once you’re finished with them (and Step 1), then you’re golden. Third year’s been really great, actually. It’s nice to actually see patients. Of course, I still have…[Read more]

congrats! -from a resident in the mid-south, trust me it’s all golden after third year.
-
thank you! i’m really excited for residency and i can’t even be deterred by the fact that i’ll need to get through my intern year first :D mind if i ask what field you chose? i’ve decided on pediatrics, myself.
-
Emergency Medicine.
You’ll get through intern year, just like you got through first year: one day at a time.

my qualifier exam is in a little less than two weeks. i know it’ll be fine. i just wish i could actually relax enough to sleep!
-
I’m sure you will do fine. I’m convinced being totally nervous/stressed out is a sign you realize you will never know enough and continue to prepare up to the last possible minute. The people I have seen who fail are the people who are over confident. I don’t know how your exam works, but before my oral defense I didn’t sleep, ate a cookie and…[Read more]
-
thanks :) i definitely agree with that saying “the more you learn the more you realize how little you know” – and that’s part of the reason i love science so much, it’s just a constant stream of learning things that have never been discovered before. it just freaks me out that i’m sleeping 3-4 hours a night now for the fifth day in a row and i…[Read more]

hey, good luck! i ate leftover thai food for breakfast before my exam, so do whatever makes you feel good before yours :)
-
thanks for the good luck wishes! my plan is to listen to music and just chill till it’s time. i dunno if i could handle eating beforehand, but definitely coffee!

made it! phew! :D

Baltimore / D.C. Autostraddlers! 11 years, 8 months agoHey! So according to the autostraddle survey thing, a lot of us live in DC and a lot of us are grad students. I’m a dc native, here for the semester to write my dissertation and am looking for working buddies or people who otherwise want someone to write with. Also, you know…friends are awesome too!
Anyone out there interested in a…[Read more]
-
I’m working on my dissertation proposal and a couple of grant proposals this semester, so I could definitely use some motivation!
-
Trying to differentiate between group postings, updates, public vs private messages…oh my! Anyhoo, thought it might be better to arrange the details here, in case anyone else is interested… Lovely!
Where are you located/where do you like to work? I’m staying near Friendship Heights, but am game to go anywhere metro accessible.
Yay for…[Read more]

Hiya, I live near UMD and usually work on campus, but I’ve also been to lots of libraries and cafes in DC (mostly on/near the green line, but there are some good ones in Adams Morgan and Dupont Circle too).
