You are the premed and medschool savior. Thanks for helping us every step of the way. YOU COVERED THE TOPIC I WANTED TO ASK YOU ABOUT IN THE VIDEO OMG. You are so thorough with your explanations and provide details from personal experience. I love that about you DocOssareh. I hope you know you will forever be one of the top 5 reasons I get in to Medical School (if that's the case)..
same, but once I accidentally got up for a class an hour earlier, because it started at 9 which I had forgotten. and then I had time for breakfast, could pay more attention and looked better. so it does make sense
Totally agree. Before attending university (I'm a late student...), I lived a pretty hectic life with fluctuant work schedual, worked evening, mornings, sometimes nights in the same week. It was hard to make a routine, to sleep and to eat, but for anything in general... and I had a lot of symptoms, like chronique fatigue, digestion problems, trouble concentrating, memory loss... it all went away when I was able to set up a routine, and I can be super efficient with my studies (studying to become a nutritionist).
lol my body is ready to sleep 8+ hrs every day man, its weird because when i was young i'd wake up the earliest without an alarm but as I've grown up its nearly impossible to wake up early even with an alarm.
I'm in medschool and I have no idea how to sleep 6 hours a night. Leave alone 7 hours. There just isn't time. I guess I'm horrible at managing my time. Sleep is a luxury in medschool.
hahahaha im in premed and i think im dying. My school is about 2 hours away from my house and my class starts at 7 am , so I leave by 5 am. Then it will end by 7pm, so i arrive at home by 9 pm. I dont know how to survive hahahah
Malaykogago had the same problem before. What i did was study after class in the library or a cafe nearby till 9pm then nap in the commute home. By 11pm you eat and prepare for sleep and wake up 4am , leave by 5 and again sleep/review during commute
Absolutely avoid scheduling early morning class. Take classes only in the morning and be done by mid day for 1 day or take classes after mid day... Never morning to evening. This will give you the opportunity to prepare for class.
I'm watching your channel since my first year of medical studies (now I'm on 3rd year). Your videos are very helpfull and you yourself are a great inspiration for me. Thank you very much! :)
I SLEEP 3 hours + 25 minutes in college bus (12minutes+13minutes) + 35 mins in different classes(5+6+10+5+8 may be).....total 4 hours..it's my daily routine except sunday
Getting used to less sleep is an advantage. Most doctors today are so unused to less sleep and free time that they're so easily fatigued. Although residents in the US don't really need that because their workweek is only 80 hours.
DocOssareh yeah I'm going to Kursk Medical school in Russia it will be of 6 years and then I'll go back to India and pass the medical council of India to practice in India if feel to practice in US what exam will I've to give?
Its crazy how organized your undergrad was. As a junior in college I straight up don't need to do any studying unless I have tests. I just gotta do my assignments and that's good enough. And the prehealth is pretty rigorous at my school. Also its crazy how little u slept. I NEEEEED 8 hours. Like in dental school I won't Be able to run on 6-7 hours a night
I love this. I am the type of person that needs 8-10 hours of sleep and society has put me in a place where if I sleep less, it would mean 'I was working hard.' So for two years I felt pressured to sleep for 4-5 hours like my peers and lo and behold I was diagnosed with depression. Depression was already in my family and I think sleep deprivation triggered it. Then got addicted to ambien because I was so use to the 5-6hours I didn't want to sleep and was unhappy everyday 365. So, sleep when you need it, and just kill the game when you are awake! Thanks doc
There’s always a choice I work two days a week, my husband doesn’t work and we have 5 kids. It’s about budgeting and discipline. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
@DocOssareh I just recently started watching your videos and they are of great help :) thankyou for taking your time out to do that. I was hoping if you could help me with this - I'm a med student from India. My college begins at 8am sharp and till 4pm in the evening. by the time I get back , I'm so exhausted that I just want to lie down but if I keep doing that , I get lagged behind with all my studies. And the other thing is I'm like super overweight which kind of makes me lazy so I took interest in gym but putting everything together , college - nap - gym - studying :( I can't seem wrap it in one in and continue :( I would very much appreciate if you could just tell me something that I could try to join all these in one without compromising my studies :)
Oops that's cool,I don't usually take a nap during launch,I take a nap at 5pm after all classes up to 10pm then I stay awake till 04 then I sleep up to 7am,cause my class start at 8am,,,guys how is it?your advise will be highly appreciated
+Rehan Khan I'm an apple fan since it's just easier for me to use and it has less problems. As you get more busy you wats things to just work and not slow you down.
Wow! Thanks a lot doc! I am an IMG preparing for my step 1.... my sleep cycle is whole lot of disturbed these days... thanks for the napping technique... I'm glad that I found this video 😀😀
Try going to bed earlier and waking up earlier. It sounds awful but it feels better after the 3rd consecutive day. You body wants to sleep this way and you get higher quality per hour
What exactly is pre med? What is the difference and what courses do you take? And how long m etc. If you could comparr the system to the swedish med school it would be the clearest if you know ') (to whomever reading this)
+Hoomes premed isn't a major. It really is just someone who plans on going to medical school. The requirements for admission into medical school are likely different in the US than outside. Premed in the US is usually 4 years of college and then applying to medical school.
DocOssareh What exactly do you study in premed? What courses? And how clinically ready are you after? I know so little about the us system. Thanks for replying btw!

"don't get up right before your class!" lol i get up at 7:40 for my 8 am class.
+Sarah Strehl lol. Get your sleep!
Sarah Strehl in which school are you studying and which classes are you taking ?
+Sarah Strehl hahaha....same here..LOL
sometimes i even woke up @8 :-D
I don't even get up for 8 am classes , that is too early for me .
same, but once I accidentally got up for a class an hour earlier, because it started at 9 which I had forgotten. and then I had time for breakfast, could pay more attention and looked better. so it does make sense
I like your educated answers.

i thought the same friend, but if you sleep more you learn faster and that's how you get time, by improving not economizing

why don't you just dorm there? That would be so much more efficient.
Malaykogago you are setting yourself up for failure, you need to be able to study, I would suggest living on campus or moving closer to campus.
Malaykogago had the same problem before. What i did was study after class in the library or a cafe nearby till 9pm then nap in the commute home. By 11pm you eat and prepare for sleep and wake up 4am , leave by 5 and again sleep/review during commute
Keep going !!!

Research has shown anything less than 7 hours over an extended period of time leads to sleep deprivation. You don't simply adjust to it.
I have been solving uworld for a month now , but I can't remember what I have studied a week ago . any advice on this
arjun , lol. me too
mind if I borrow the "spinning the wheel in the mud and not getting enough traction?"
that is cool to take a nap on the desk
thanks
My god I miss those pre-med days.

i want to ask you about the sources that i can read it in forensic
what about naps in the evening.?

What about polyphasic sleep?
Video suggestion: a day in the life of a neurology resident
+Mihker it's tough for me to blog in a hospital given patient privacy. But I'm trying to figure something out.
Nice video. Please try not to repeat the same thing several times.

Are you an Indian by any chance?
+Anam Chowdhury I'm Persian!
are u indian.??
+sruthi kandaswamy I'm Persian!
DocOssareh I didn't expect that, maybe the Indian medical student stereotype is why people will think you're from India
