Becoming a good doctor has nothing to do with grades. You can be a topper and the worst human and vice versa. Here are tips to be both a good doctor and get top grades. Google the topics mentioned.
1. a) Study. b) Sleep. c) Exercise. d) Eat healthy e) Have fun. f) Manage your time. e) Develop communication skills. Skip one item and your grades will fall or you won't be a good doctor. Study, but smartly. Find your style of studying. Some students are auditory, some visual, some like to touch and feel... Mix and match. Experiment what works for you. Each person is unique.
2. Focus on learning concepts, not rote learning. Focus on clinical applications in every topic. Build strong foundation in preclinical and esp. paraclinical subjects. Only then can skyscraper come up.
Make brief, illustrated mind map/spider diagram/pointwise notes of important topics throughout medical course. Will help in final revision and PG/USMLE exams. Students ignore this and start making notes only during PG preparation with online/offline coaching, which charge a lot. Writing notes throughout med school is a better technique. Scan regularly. Revise previous years' subjects too. Spend 80% of study on current year's subjects, 20% revising earlier years' material (do it in weekends). Don't wait till last year!
Reading books is passive (recognition). Instead, ask yourself questions, do exams, teach someone (active recall). In real life, you must extract stuff from your brain. Take notes of how profs do procedures and dissections. Make checklists. They save lives, time and money. Make checklists for everything, esp. procedures. Share with others (read Dr. Atul Gawande's "Checklist Manifesto").
3. The night before class, watch UA-cam videos on the subject, such as Dr Najeeb Lectures, Ninja Nerd, Medcram, Osmosis, Lecturio. In morning, review at 2x or 3x speed. Then scan textbook’s chapter heads, subheads and bold-type points, pictures, tables, captions, questions. Then attend lecture.
4. In class, don't take notes. Instead write in mind maps (Tony Buzan's videos and books).
5. Back in your room, don’t read. First, recall & write lecture points. Then, read book, asking why, what, how, etc. With another colour pen, write points you missed. Watch more UA-cam videos, such as Sam Webster, Pathoma, to reinforce ideas.
6. Make up questions. Think like an examiner. Load onto both ANKI and Excel/Google spreadsheet. Add photos, drawings, cartoons (Picmonic/Sketchy medical), vulgar mnemonics (Google), bizarre stories to remember them, songs, audio in the answer decks. Use mind maps, memory palaces, BMJ medical, Geeky Medics, Marrow, Prepladder.
Revise daily (Anki has edge here with spaced repetition as it automatically asks when retention curve dips, but disadvantage is you have to go through huge stacks of cards unlike the spreadsheet, where you can mark difficult ones in red and read only them. Best is to use both). Use Anki DAILY, even while walking to class or while waiting for professor or next patient. A minute here, a minute there add up.
7. Colour code syllabus in Google Spreadsheet or Excel. Focus on "must know". Mark each review (recalling, not reading books).
Mark date after each revision and difficulty in 3-5 colours (easy green, medium orange, hard red. Focus on red). Write in one column why you found it difficult or if just guess. Find solution to problem.
8. The more you draw, the more you will remember. Use colour.
9. Read standard books, such as Guyton, Big Robbins/Medium Robbins, and Gray's Anatomy for Students rather than exam-oriented point-wise guides. These may help you pass exams but will not build concepts. Most books, including Pathoma, are available free on Library Genesis; most videos on UA-cam or BitTorrent. Look around instead of investing money.
10. Focus on what professors teach. They have read the important books. Concentrate in class, don't let your mind wander. Never skip practicals and clinics.
11. Spend maximum time in practicals and clinics. Dissect as much as possible. Volunteer to do procedures. See how to use knowledge for practical problems. Eg: videos of "Athlean-X" and "Ask Dr Jo" or quick memorisation techniques of Dr.James Preddy. Make up questions needing info from many subjects. Most people have neck ache, backache, knee problems. Can you solve them with exercises and therapeutic yoga even as a student? Incorporate alternative medicine, plant-based whole foods. Learn tips from them. Don't automatically debunk them.
12. If you want to remember something really well, write down key points and read it 15 times immediately before going to bed and 15 times within first five minutes of waking up.
13. Google the topic “medical punch words”. Questions contain these words. Load in ANKI and revise daily.
14. Use Pomodoro technique to study. Buy a small alarm clock, not phone alarm. Study in 25-min blocks, then do anything else for five minutes. Do it again. After two hours, take a 30-min break. Reward yourself. Do NOT look at phone, saying "only one minute". In final year, delete social media.
Study with a friend (More than 4 people gets disruptive). In groups, tap on desk to start, tap again to indicate break, tap to resume. Study in library rather than in hostel to reduce distractions.
15. Teaching someone without using notes is the best form of recall. Else, lecture to empty bedroom.
16. Write very brief points, drawings on Post-It Notes above your desk for every topic (Anas Nuur Ali "how to memorize"). Scan 15 min daily. By the end of the year, you would have seen them hundreds of times. Unlike ANKI, it jumps at you if you stand there.
17. Don't study sequentially. Do topic 1&2, then test yourself by recalling topic 1. After studying topic 3, test on topic two. Do same with the rest. While studying several subjects, study a little here, a little there rather than sequentially.
18. Before sleeping, write out plan for tomorrow. Mentally review what did you studied today and what you want to do tomorrow. The brain will focus on these when sleeping. Sleep 7-9 hours daily. Sleep by 10 pm and wake up at 5. Immediately exercise vigorously. Then study. Most students stay awake all night, sleep for 4-5 hours, wake up 15 min before class and run there unbathed! Tests showed that they retained only 30% of what they had studied all night. Studying in the morning after a good sleep helps in better retention.
19. Studying daily for one hour over a week is better than studying the whole thing in seven hours in one day. Before exam, study and recall weak areas. Read red chapters.
The night before exams, sleep rather than study all night. If you study without sleeping, you will not remember what you studied. Else, sleep, wake up early and study.
During exams, every 30 minutes take three breaths of 4 sec inhalation, 7-sec hold and 8-sec exhalation. Sure, you could have answered a few questions in those 57 seconds but did you get them right? This boosts oxygen to tackle questions correctly.
20. Watch Marty Lobdell, Ali Abdaal, Kharma Medic, MDprospect, Dirty Medicine, Anuj Pachchel, Rachel Southard for tips.
21. Spend weekends, holidays and whenever possible helping people in cancer wards, old-age homes, schools for children with special needs, physically and mentally handicapped people. Be empathetic. Never be arrogant. Everyone is a teacher. Nurses have a lot of experience as they spend more time with patients unlike doctors. Be extra courteous to them. Involve them in treatment decisions. Get 2nd, 3rd,4th opinion from various doctors. (Read Dr Lisa Sanders "Diagnosis" about rare cases that doctors couldn't identify but solved by the public using common sense).
Ask seniors and professors for tips, their memorable experiences. Listen to patients without interrupting them or getting impatient. If you listen long enough, you will know the problem. Rely on brains, not costly diagnostic tests. Imagine you are in a forest or desert without them. What would you do? (Cuba does this because of sanctions, and now has some of the best health indices in the world.)
22. Don't focus on money in life. Don't be greedy and seek commissions or do unethical things even if others are doing it. Prescribe cheaper drugs. Read inspirational articles about doctors who went out of the way to serve people, often getting no money.
23. Improve your handwriting. Nearly all doctors have terrible handwriting! Many drugs have similar names with only one letter different.
24. Read fiction, humanities. Will widen your horizon. See esp. Michael Sandel's Harvard lectures on Justice--What is the right thing to do. Watch Yale prof Shelly Kagan's lectures on Death. You will encounter these situations in life.
25. Be punctual. It will help you in life. See how many minutes it takes to go from room to classroom desk. Learn self defense during college. Will make you fit and will make you safe in life.
Extra:
Study of 1,000 world leaders, CEOs found that they all sleep well, and wake up early, often at 4 a.m. They do not look at phone on waking up. Instead they immediately exercise vigorously, do pranayama, meditate and write a daily journal (mentioning three things they are grateful for that day and why). Only then they touch their phone. They all focus intensely on the job on hand. They work like crazy during the week and party like crazy in the weekend! They all have a hobby that they actively pursue. They network a lot. By helping people, they also get help eventually. They read a variety of books lifelong. Their aim: be happy, healthy and helpful to all.

Hello po ate i really like ur videos , sobrang nkakatulong po. tanong ko lang po gusto ko po kasi mag OB ano po magandang pre med don? salamat po ❤️
Hello! Your premed and future specialization don't have to be related! Go for something you're interested in 😌 Thanks for watching!
In particular po, were you a bright student during hs?
My grades were fairly high nung hs and college but it's so so different now HAHAHAHAH
So you were a bright student po pala. Shocks
Baka di ko kayanin med school hshshshs
Ate Shayne what's your pre med po? Salamat poo ❤
Hello! I took BS Pharmacy ☺️
Thank you po ☺❤
Your video is so enjoyable and inspiring to watch po!!
I'm planning to take BS Psych in UST or DLSU as my pre med po. Which is better po kaya? I wanna study at UST-FMS din po for my M.D.
Any advice po?
Hello! Thank you 🥺❤️ I wouldn't say "better" pero if you're really planning on taking up med in UST, then siguro better for you to take your undergrad in UST na din ☺️ But!!!! Go with the COURSE that you want over the school that you want. Enjoy it cause you'll do well that way! Good luck!!
Do they allow transferees po ba?
Are you asking about UST Med? Our faculty doesn't accept transferees from other medical schools ☹️
I have a question hehe para po ba sa matatalino yung med?
More on para sa matiyaga hehe. It's hard to survive med school with just "talino" ☺️
Guys! Pwede po patulong? Im stuck between uerm and st lukes. Saan ba tlga ang mas magandang school? Salamat po sa magrereply.
Sorry po if hindi related sa video ✌️
Hi! Try to search in Google regarding their passing rate sa board exam, makakatulong yon heheheh
Mac Agnus salamat po 🙂
Hi ate your vids inspired me alot!! ☺️ hoping to get more advices and tips hehe and i'm planning to be a general surgeon and i'm still undecided on what premed should i take, but I guess i'll take pharma po, pero any suggestion what premed mostly suit po, tbh po nalilito pa pp aq. thank u vvv much po❤️

Anyways, i love all ur vids po they're really helpful and inspiring po😘❤
Hi! Our sections are assigned alphabetically and in a section, there are 100+ students. ☺️ So no, you can't choose your block hehe. Thank you so much!! 🥰
pharmacy student ka diba ate?
Was!! Med students na kami now 💛
Lalaine Joy Lipetin Yayy! Thank you so much ❤️🤗
Shayne Uy Thank you for replying ate! Keep inspiring other people :) God Bless You Always 😊
What is samplex po?
Sample exams or the previous exams of the upperclassmen ☺️
Ate meron po bang website na pwede kang makakita ng samplex?
Noo hindi siya official na paper ☺️ Hinahand down lang siya ng higher batches if nabalik sakanila yung papers before
Thank you ate ❤️
Ikaw yung vlogger pero nakakadistract yung pagkain mo at biglang pagkulit mo sa katabi mo while ibang kasama mo na nagsasalita ng interesting matters na gusto namin pakinggan ng maayos pero nadidistract lang sa parang wala kang gana or dika talaga nakinig at all sa points na sinasabi ng kasama mo (redundant lol). Parang mas interested pa ako makinig sa mga kasama pag nagsasalita sila kasi may connection while ikaw is parang ewan haha sry to say dis ha.
No hate Ate ha im just observant lang kasi miski to little things napupuna ko kasi chismoso ako 😂.
Btw luv ur content Ate! Laban doktora! 💛
Magkano po tuition fee sa UST for med? may mga scholarship or anything para makabawas sa bayarin? heheheeh anyway, thank you po sa vids nyo po talagang nakakatulong para sa mga aspiring doctors out there!
Yess, USTMed offers scholarships! Tuition varies per sem but ~150-160k ☺️ Thank you also for watching!
@@shayneuy halaaaa ang mahaaaal hehe i am thinking pa man din na if ever i will enter med school, it'd be UST lol
Anyway, ateee, is there a required NMAT score before entering UST med school? esp when you're not from UST during your premed?
Hi! NMAT requirement is 85 for all applicants, then 25-30% are accepted from other schools ☺️
Ilang taon na po kayo nagaaral ng med???
Hi! I'm in 2nd year 😌
Anong course niyo po?
Nakoooo😂😂😂😂😩
I took up BS Pharmacy for undergrad. I'm now taking the Doctor of Medicine program 💛
😮
good luck po!!
hope to be like youuuu soon hehehe
