How to Create a Study Plan for the Genetic Counseling Board Exam | Featuring Brianna Tucker, MS, CGC
We are joined by Brianna Tucker, MS, CGC, a genetic counselor who graduated from Stanford's Genetic Counseling program in 2023. Brianna discusses her approach for creating a successful 6-month study plan for the ABGC board exam, which she took in March 2024.
Brianna used multiple strategies including flashcards with spaced repetition, flowcharts, and even songs to help learn the material. Brianna created a study planner and progress tracker using Google sheets, which she walks us through in the second half of the video. Brianna also discusses some of the challenges she faced in creating a study plan and how she held herself accountable while studying.

These disorders arise from changes in the imprinted region 15q11.2-q13, also known as the Prader-Willi / Angelman critical region. We explore the genetic mechanisms behind these disorders, including microdeletions (most commonly), uniparental disomy (UPD), a...
Risk calculations involving consanguinity (for the ABGC exam)
Переглядів 1042 місяці тому
In today's video, we calculate the risk for a couple (who are 1st cousins) of having a child with Joubert syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder. This approach can be generally used for calculating the risk for recessive disorders in any pedigree where consanguinity is present. We also contrast this approach with the approach to risk calculations when there is no consanguinity present. The 2...

Very helpful! Thank you so much.
Thank you, Makenna! I am glad to hear that you found this video helpful!
Thank you so much for the video! I was just wondering if you could explain how the glutaryl coA forms gluatoconic acid and 3-OH-Glutaric acid?
Hi doctr i have 22 weeks pregnencyand my nuchal fold thickness is 6.6mm. Pls sugest me what i do.
I also have same problem I have 22 weeks 5days pregnancy my nuchal fold thickness is 7mm can u plz suggest me Doctor
@@urushanepali3975 am with for nipt test result .
Hi doctor my nuchal fold is 5mm 21 weeks and 5 days it is normal or problem
Thank you for this very informative video.
No problem. Thank you for watching!
Hi doctor I have 20w of pregnant, and my Nuchal fold thickness value is 5.6 does it normal? And doctor recommended to do Nipt test I’m waiting for the report.i’m in too tens...😢😢😢 plz doctor suggest me
Hello, yes, the criteria for nuchal fold thickness changes with gestational age. At 20 weeks, the nuchal fold thickness is usually less than 6 mm. I would recommend following up with your OBGYN with any additional questions related to your pregnancy. Wishing you all the best! www.cuh.nhs.uk/patient-information/increased-nuchal-fold-nf/
Pls reply me how ur baby.my baby nf is 6.6mm.
Awesome!
Thank you!
Excellent video! Keep up the strong work!
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Thank you
You're welcome. Thank you for watching!
Can you differentiate genetic vs Intoxication via metabolic labs alone or are genetic tests required to rule out intoxication
Thankyouuuu so much 😭🙌 you saved my life!
No problem, thank you for watching!
Great video, however the gene that causes IVA is called IVD, not IVA.
That is correct. Thank you for pointing this out.
5.1mm is it abnormal😢. Plz reply me (13 weeks,)
Would yo like share with me the bibliography o de source of the metabolic pathway of leucine
Nuchal translucency measures 4.76 mm; it appears thickened. Also suspicious small cystic areas are noted under the skin behind the neck. Findings are highly suspicious for? cystic hygroma.
@medMuse is there any problem with above results please respond on it thank you
Hello, I apologize for the delayed response. Cystic hygromas can sometimes happen on their own, though can also be associated with underlying genetic disorders like Down syndrome, Turner syndrome or Noonan syndrome. The findings of a cystic hygroma usually warrants closer follow-up by your local OBGYN.
12 week CRL 52.4 and NT 1.5 ,, is it normal ?
Thank you for this video. Your slide at 2-3 mins says Biotin (vitamin B2) as a cofactor of glutaryl CoA. Can you clarify? Is it both biotin + B2? Or is there a possible mistake of calling B2 as biotin, or riboflavin as B7?
Thank you for your comment. Yes, you are correct, this should read as "Riboflavin (vitamin B2)". Biotin is not a cofactor for glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase. The acyl-CoA dehydrogenases (including glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase) all use FAD (flavin adenine dinucleotide) as a cofactor. Ribo'flavin' is a precursor to FAD and is therefore a cofactor for this family of enzymes.
Is the NT value the lower the better? I am 13w and my Nt was 2.4mm, Crl 67mm. Is 2mm considered safer than 2.4mm? Or as long as Nt value is <95% it doesn’t matter? Thank you
Thank you for your question. In general, as long as NT value is <95%, then you are within the range of normal NT values in for 95% of healthy pregnancies. We would say that you are not at any increased risk for fetal anomalies with an NT below 95%. There is some variability in NT values within healthy pregnancies, and lower is not necessarily "better". As an example, your pregnancy would not be at an increased risk being at the 90th percentile compared with the 50th percentile, assuming no other anomalies were found.
@@studyrarewhere are you getting the percentiles from? I had my NT scan recently and it was 2.3mm with a CRL of 72.2mm. I found some calculators online and one of them said it was above 95th percentile while the others said it was around 80th. Which one is right? I’ve been worried sick.
Sister how is ur baby now ..me too have the same nt value
@@aarthikrishna3967 he is a healthy 3.5month old!
Hello Doctor, I’ve done an early ultrasound I’m 10+1 weeks and they found A 3,4mm Nt!! Don I have to be worried? Thanks
Hello Anna, thank you for your message. It is hard for me to say based on the NT value alone. If this was the only finding, then based on the chart in minute 3, the most likely outcome would still be a healthy pregnancy. Your OBGYN would be best equipped to answer this question and can combine the ultrasound fundings and any other studies to help put the NT value into context and discuss next steps.
Hello med use, My baby nuchal fold thickness 2.6 mm And my pregnancy is 21 weeks. Is it normal? And what should I do now? Plz suggest me
Hello Nasrin, thank you for your message. The nuchal fold thickness 2.6 mm at your gestational age would generally not qualify as thick. However, I unfortunately cannot give medical advice over the internet, this is something that can be best discussed with your local OBGYN.
Watch the video
hey @medMuse , very nice video. My wife is pregnant, we wen't for our dating echo last week at 11 weeks. The NT was 5.7mm. we were devastated. We went back at 12 weeks, the NT was 2.3mm. the doctor said she never saw that. We went from high risk to normal in one week. We also did the DNA blood work, all came back negative.
Hi Nicolas, thanks for your comment and for sharing your experience. So glad to hear that baby's NT is back to normal. Wishing you and your wife a healthy and safe pregnancy.
How is your baby
