What is the ideal study schedule of a medical student?

How should my weekend and weekday study schedule look like?

Should I study for medical exams and boards the same way as lectures?

Co-Author Daniel Guzman, MD, and Editor John P. Sanchez, MD, MPH discuss the release of their new book Succeeding in Academic Medicine: A Roadmap for Diverse Medical Students and Residents. Dr. Guzman is an Internal Medicine Resident (PGYII) at the University of California, San Fransisco. This episode of the podcast feature's Dr. Guzman's book chapter: "Learn How To Transform Your Community Service Project into Scholarship"

Med students need to learn tons of skills to help them adapt quickly and thrive in medical school. It’s great if a pre-med has developed some of these skills early on, but I’ve seen med students from first to fourth year (and even up to residency) still needing to work on these areas.

In my years of experience as a resident doctor now, I learned that there are 5 indispensable skills medical students need for medical school. These skills will absolutely help you frame things and avoid getting overwhelmed in your never-ending medical education.

The MD journey may be long and unpredictable, but it’s never too late to sharpen up and learn essential skills that will better equip you for the path ahead.

Get to work and master these 5 skills for med school!

Wondering what the life of a Caribbean Medical student is like and how he avoids burnout?

In this episode of the TMJ show, we are joined by Dr. Tommy Martin, an internal medicine-pediatric medical resident (med-peds). We talk about how not studying for the MCAT turned out, being a Caribbean medical student in St. George’s, how much helping medical students means to him, how he avoids burnout, being a family man to his wife and newborn baby and more!

I had a lot of fun talking to Tommy and how he views his M.D. journey as just a part of his life (and life his whole life). We also got to many med school nuggets during our conversation that hopefully will help on your reflections and thoughts of being a med student and a future doctor.

Tune in and learn more about Dr. Tommy Martin in this new episode!

Some small things can really make a difference in med school.

If you are a med student or a pre-med, you are about to appreciate how impactful the little things can be in your journey to become a doctor.

But these small things are not just purely medical-related or just reading and memorizing textbooks 24/7. 

Sometimes, what can make the difference are the things you do outside of the student doctor life and may simply involve a reassessment of your mindset or of the company you keep.

Learn more about these med school tips and maximize their impact in this episode of the TMJ show!

I found many interesting med school-related questions online. So, I decided to play medical school consultant and go over some of them.

Med students do have a lot on their plate from dealing with finances, figuring out the best study methods, and working their hardest to not only meet but exceed the med school standards. 

I dealt with the same things so I know it can be tough and confusing. This is why I wanted to answer some of the more pressing questions and give my best take on how to deal with certain situations. 

Check this episode out to learn more med school study tips, how to support yourself financially, the importance of having research experience, (and yes!) how to deal with gunners in med school, and many more!

Some of the worst parts about being a doctor are not often the ones you think about while studying in medical school or even during your pre-med.

These days,  I’m a resident and I wish someone warned or at least talked to me while I was a med student about what I now consider as some of the things I really dislike about my job.

I don’t want you to be caught off caught guard so I made this new podcast!
