"Oh, when I was your age..."

Respectfully stfu. Bestie, you're barely 3 years older. The only thing that's getting you before me is earlier menopause and that's on that

Guys I realized you can’t compromise quality time on your core interests without compromising your own core self and fading away as a person . Did you know about this

what is an osce?

hii! OSCE stands for Objective Structured Clinical Examination. They’re practical exams that we have to sit in medical school. We’re given between 6 and 15 (usually but it can vary) stations, each with an unknown clinical scenario that you wouldn’t have seen before. this could be something like “a patient has presented to the GP with shortness of breath. Take a full history and find out what’s going on” or “you’re in the ED and called to review a patient with chest pain. Perform a relevant examination and begin management.” There might even be practical skills like taking blood, putting in an NG tube or carrying out basic life support (these are done on dummies though).

Each station has a simulated patient (usually just an actor) and an examiner and you’re given about 8-10 minutes to complete the task and answer any questions the examiner has for you. You get marked on how you perform, what you do, how you treat the patient, if they think your clinical knowledge is good etc. They’re basically a way of testing what you’ve learnt on placements and whether you can be a safe and competent doctor.

Sunny mornings 🌤️ vs rainy afternoons ☔️

Taking a break at my local cafe, we’re moving next week so I’m trying to psych myself up for a cross-country UHaul trip. Lots of little things to do and I’ve been feeling overwhelmed even though I have no more med school stuff to do until graduation day.

what classes are all of your characters?

and cyra is my favorite, i appreciate the mobility aid that she uses at times, but i was also wondering, is she a mortician? it wasn’t clear to me at all, sorry

P.S. keep the writing snippets coming!! you’re so good at that

dorian and koralina are both rangers, cyra is a rogue and ashe is a bard!

don’t worry about being confused about what cyra does akdhffhj it’s. always been very vague

before the nautiloid she had a very shady autopsy-adjacent job and afterwards she’s just a person who pokes around in dead bodies (maybe she’s publishing medical research, maybe it’s just for her). in modern AU stuff though i do write her as an actual mortician or a pathologist!

Worst thing about making tattoo artist characters is you have to make so many tattoos for them.

A compilation of vibes of this one particular surgery class:

One of our groupmate's birthday is today and we had a cake and shit, and my groupmates simultaneously decided to,,,, light the candles on the cake. RIGHT beside the emergency ambulance hospital morgue. Just in a parking lot with a bunch of people. How did they not kick us out? I don't know.

Disturbing the peace yelling "HAPPY BIRTHDAY WOOOOOOOO" next to the emergency ambulance hospital morgue

We have soft bandages as the topic today, so we just came in and started practicing on each other

Groupmate off a real heavy night shift sleeping on the chairs

Groupmate №2 scheduling a thing with helping someone cheat on a test for the middle of class, causing to him rn hiding in the bathroom dictating answers

Us simultaneously deciding to put ALL the bandages on one person. She's currently sitting looking like a mummy, waiting for the prof so we can show that we were doing stuff while he wasn't there

The professor is STILL not here. Class started 2 hours ago. Class lasts 2:25.

"Oh, when I was your age..."

You are a biological male.

Statistically speaking, you're already gonna live a shorter life than a woman.

See you at your funeral. FR SEE YOU AT YOUR FUNERAL YOU WON'T CATCH ME SLIPPING

Was studying at a cafe yesterday and this group of ladies who looked maybe in their late 20s came in and I could tell they were all in healthcare bc of their scrubs . And they all sat down and chatted and giggled for like two hours straight and it seemed so fun like they lit up the whole place tbh. I was like omg that’s my future bc med school girl group when
