Serious and fun, we deliver shows like this every week

How to Survive The First Semester of Med School (12/11/2025) - M1s Jonah Albrecht, Trever Maiers, Alex Johnson, and Chris Ceplecha review the M1 semester and how they survived it. You'll hear about what habits they had to drop, and which of their experiments in learning were a waste of time. Who did they lean on? What made it possible? What did they trip over, and how did right themselves? Their stories should give hope to future students that while medical school is tough in ways that are unpredictable, by working together--whether teaching each other, admitting when they needed help, and taking advantage of the resources available to them--it's not only possible, but "fun!"
