Four future doctors weigh in on evaluations, filler words, and a breakup over medical science.

M2s Akshaj Joshi, Anna Royer, Charis Edwards, and Cory Karasek talk about giving and receiving feedback, what it’s like reading a stack of evaluative comments about yourself, why “keep reading” is somehow a real evaluation, and whether attendings have started letting AI write their write-ups. Also, do quiet students get read more harshly than talkative ones, does anybody actually change their filler-word habit once someone points it out, and is your personality basically locked in since the day you were born (this one gets a full psychoanalysis of Joshi’s baby years). Also, we visit reddit to help people. For instance, an AITA dilemma asks whether refusing hospital visitors after birth makes you the asshole, whether it’s awful to end a ten-year relationship over a partner’s decision to go to naturopathic school, and somebody’s uncle wants a free diagnosis at the next family gathering, and gets read for it, ethically, legally, and personally.
