Anki Warriors, Ortho Bros, Last Minute Legends and More
Before she arrived at CCOM, M1 Moesha Chhatlani thought there’d only be one type of person going to med school. She’s since realized that was not true, so she surveyed her first-year classmates and sorted them into archetypes, and classmates Avery Hand, Megan Funk, Braedon Kirkpatrick, and Dave go through the results: who is the Anki warrior, who is the pop-up med student, who is the ortho bro, and why is the most common type the one who disappears for days and then walks away with an 87%? (No confidence intervals were harmed. It is not evidence based.)
What do M1s eat for lunch? Whatever the interest groups leave out, and Dave admits he hunts for it too. Also, what gets students dinged in Objective Structured Clinical Examination feedback, and why is the top answer saying “awesome” about a family history of diabetes?
Then the index cards come out and everyone has to argue an opinion they may not hold: more residency slots as the cure for physician burnout, whether residents should use artificial intelligence for charting, whether Step 1 should stay pass/fail, a longer gross anatomy course, stray cats, and Halloween on the last Saturday of October. Also, Dave is colorblind and has feelings about your charts.
