Wow this is so helpful! As a first year medical student, I'm definitely starting to see the importance of Mnemonics! Thanks for sharing this Zach! You're the best!
MNEMONICS WE LOVE TO SEE IT! I just want to add a few VERY IMPORTANT and useful ones: DRS ABCDE for any emergency assessment: Danger? Response? Shout for help. (Then what to focus on, in order of what will kill the patient) - Airway, Breathing, Circulation, Disability, Expose/everything else. SOCRATES for pain: Site, Onset, Character, Radiation, Associated symptoms, Timing, Exacerbating/relieving factors, Severity. (Alternative to OPQRST) For acute limb ischaemia, we normally have a sixth P: Perishingly cold! The fourth D of pellagra is: Death! (if untreated) GOLDMARK for causes of high anion gap metabolic acidosis (“modernized” version): Glycols (ethylene/propylene), Oxoproline (paracetamol metabolite), L-lactate, D-lactate, Methanol, Aspirin, Renal failure, Ketoacidosis. (Alternative to MUDPILES) DR C BRaVADO for interpreting cardiotocograms (Baby’s heart tracing): DR = Define Risk, C = Contractions, BRa = Baseline Rate, V = Variability, A = Accelerations, D = Decelerations, O = Overall impression For the wrist (carpal) bones - Some Lovers Try Positions That They Can't Handle = Scaphoid, Lunate, Triquetrum, Pisiform, Trapezium, Trapezoid, Capitate, Hamate. I hope these help!! :)
I've been surviving the whole year of my high school by creating mnemonics on my own! Pretty much easy to remember than to write it many times! #lifesaver XD! Thanks for the video Zach!❤️
For pain, we use the mnemonic SOCRATES S - Site O - Onset C - Character R - Radiation A - Associated Symptoms T - Type E- Exacerbating/Relieving factors S - Severity
Hi Zach, Zack here lol. I am wondering if you would recommend your flashcard/active recall method for reading as well? If so, how would you go about implementing this. I ask because if it’s the case that this method allows you to never watch a lecture more than once, can it do the same for reading? I am a first year law student here in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. The reading is intense. Kinanaskomitin (Thank you in Cree First Nations or Native American).
@@ZachHighley I for sure will, and I'd also like to thank you for motivating me outside of studies as well, I'll be turning 18 in the next couple of weeks and I've started working on making videos to capture my journey and share them as well!
Another cool mnemonic for the little hand bones "some lovers try positions that they can't handle" Scaphoid Lunate Triquetral Pisiform Trapezium Trapezoid Capitate Hamate
I came up with two of my own recently; to remember the phases of mitosis I say “Physiology Makes Anatomy True” for Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, & Telophase. To remember the 4 types of tissues in the body I say “My Nanny Can’t Eat” for Muscle, Nervous, Connective, and Epithelial.
Bro im using Anki and now getting very well adapted to it thanks for introducing it to me... literally its you who's gonna elevate my rank by at least a 1000 in my exam... current in grade 12 givin JEE(india)... And have a doubt...
Whenever I use da Pomodoro technique I feel like I have not achieved much so I skip the break and then get fatigued in between sessions and also get lost in daydreams, procrastination enters and the schedule Splits apart. Even with your studywithme vids I'm unable to be consistent with the Pomodoro Method.. please make a video on how actually Work intensely and with discipline with Pomodoro
I would recommend to change your category of thought and not think in terms of achieving much or not achieving. Consider time more like lines and boundaries, as a man cannot escape his shadow one shall not escape the silhouette of set boundaries. It is a matter of discipline, as a shaky hand has difficulty coloring shapes and often draws outside the line, so a shaky mind often moves beyond set boundaries. Perhaps meditation would be the most useful advice. Seek to train your mind to think on one thing and one thing only, not to move to the left or to the right, but to follow one line of thought like a pen tracing a figure. This is a matter of habit, one cannot press a button and instantly become consistent. Often our ambitions are not beyond our capacity but beyond our discipline. It is learning to do what we hate or what we are inclined to avoid and letting the flame of our goals set our imaginations on fire which will act as the fuel to persevere.
@@ronaldjohnson_ita Your choice of words is amazing... I do meditation for 15 mins daily...It has been a month and I dont get perfectly thoughtless everytime, there are bad days and good days but I never expect an outcome or a perfect session while I start the meditation. I accept and observe whatever comes on.... You mentioned thinking thinking about time as something I cannot stretch. So, basically You told me not to expect any outcome to meet at the end of the pomodoro and take a break from study as a part of discipline... well! that's a great tip to follow... thanks! btw did I get you right?
@@harshjoshi014 Hello, I think you summarized it well. Consider that when we listen to music we do not say, “I wish I paid more attention to the drums.” When we watch a beautiful sunset we don’t say, “I wish I blinked less and viewed the sky more closely.” Or when we when eat we don’t say, “The quality of my chewing wasn’t so good today”. Rather we simply listen, we simply watch, we simply eat. In the same manner, we must cultivate this spirit of simplicity in our studies. We simply study, the song ends, the sun sets and the plate becomes empty, so our study sessions come to a close. Then we rise to do it again. If we incessantly thought about our chewing we would never enjoy food, if we thought about the blinking of our lashes we would never enjoy seeing. Sometimes hyper introspection and the constant attention to how we study itself becomes a distraction, and thus hindering us to truly study.
It's sooooooo funny for someone who says he didn't need to "take notes in medical school" to not remember duo-jeju-ileum and needed a mnemonic for that. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
The essential amino acids mnemonic is great however it confuses each amino acid with its proper one letter code. For example the letter P is actually for Proline, where the letter F is for Phenylalanine. A better mnemonic that I learned is HIV M(I)LK WTF? Arginine can be argued to be either an essential or nonessential amino acid. Keep doing what you do Zach!

You provide so much value for med school students it's crazy
Thanks, the internet (CZcams) has helped me soooo much, only decent of me to try and help back!
The improvement tips we all need.
Thank you for this Zach!
Stay Safe as always! ❤️
Hope they help!
OMG!! This is my favorite Channel, thank you Zach, so much

Always wanted a video like - Zach is a pioneer at this point
Zach Highley, you're the best! Keep up the good work! Thank you so much for inspiring tons of people : )
Thanks for the nice words
@@ZachHighley Yeah man you're worth it : )
These are so great!! Thanks for putting them all together
Glad they helped!
Thank You so much Sir... It really helped 🙏
We use some of these working in the lab! Pretty cool to see the overlap between healthcare professions
Need more of this
That interesting information Zach
Hello congrats on your step 1 success and sharing study techniques. Would you be able to be post a video on your step 1 plan and strategy?
Thanks for posting 😇😇
Was waiting for your video 😊
Thanks for watching!
Zach, can you please make a video for boards preparation? Your videos are so helpful and I have watched most of them!
I've been surviving the whole year of my high school by creating mnemonics on my own!
Pretty much easy to remember than to write it many times! #lifesaver XD! Thanks for the video Zach!❤️
As an anatomist, I've used the external carotid mnemonic, but "freaking out" instead of the expletive so that its kosher for powerpoint slides haha
Awesome I love this ❤️❤️❤️
I love your videos 💜
Really Good Mnemonic To Remember... ❤
Also, one of my favs is “All Physicians Take Money” to help keep track of valves during auscultation.
很喜欢博主你的学习视频～
For pain, we use the mnemonic SOCRATES
S - Site
O - Onset
C - Character
R - Radiation
A - Associated Symptoms
T - Type
E- Exacerbating/Relieving factors
S - Severity
uwu another tips from Dr. Highley!! I am also excited for the trip vlog soon 😭🌻🌻 Have a great day! 🌱
It's cominggggg
I am also a medical student
And I find your videos really helpful and interesting
Thank you dr. Zach
6:50 you can add another P (Perishing cold). But it is not very reliable since the ischemic extremity takes the room temperature.

Thanks so much, Zach! I have finals for my first block in about two weeks. Do you have a vid on how to prep for finals?
Id definitely check out my video on how I prepare for exams: czcams.com/video/2oXhLCAWgkI/video.html
@@ZachHighley Sweet, thanks man.
@@ZachHighley just an update for you- passed all my exams with flying colors last week by using this exact method
I just had my interview the other day. Hope it'll goes well 🤞🏻
Could you please do a video on how to efficiently study or get the most out of medical textbooks or any textbooks in general? >
Thanks for sharing this video🌹
You are awesome!
Hope it helps!
@@ZachHighley Yup,always
I have a hematology exam on Tuesday so this was much needed
God bless you, sweet angel.
Currently in high school but will save this video for later, thanks man!
Good luck! Let me know if it helps when you are in medical school
@@ZachHighley I for sure will, and I'd also like to thank you for motivating me outside of studies as well, I'll be turning 18 in the next couple of weeks and I've started working on making videos to capture my journey and share them as well!

Scaphoid
Lunate
Triquetral
Pisiform
Trapezium
Trapezoid
Capitate
Hamate
you could keep the "5 F's" and add Fibrates as the fifth F since an adverse effect of Fibrates is gallstones!
Loved It keep going love from India🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

Love all your vedios ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
thanks for watching!
A radiologist taught me too look at chest xrays= a-airway, b-boarder, c-cardiac, d-density (bone) and e- everything else.
THIS IS GREAT
thank youuuuu
Honestly, I get the feeling from this video that Zac was trying SOOO hard to not use ones that'll get him demonetised
There were definitely a few...
Bro im using Anki and now getting very well adapted to it thanks for introducing it to me... literally its you who's gonna elevate my rank by at least a 1000 in my exam... current in grade 12 givin JEE(india)... And have a doubt...
Hey Zach, how did you answer, why do you want to study medicine?

I have a question
Should i read books first or should i first
watch the video lecture of the particular
topic? i am in 1st prof.
:333 love it!!! ^3^
Wow u should sale laminated index cards! Amazing 👏
Haha not a bad idea
As a final year med student I’m impressed I knew most of them maybe all this studying is starting to pay off 🥴
Another trick- for fat soluble vitamins, you can think "Fat KADE"
❤️
Hi zack 🤗

@@ZachHighley sorry Sir
LOVE UR CONTENT BROTHER.BUT I'M STILL STUDYING FOR AL'S 😎 HOPE TO BE A DOCTOR.
I’m studying for a Nurse Practitioner degree and this is so helpful! Thank you!
Good luck
Zach I know you don't swear on your channel but between internet friends, I think we both know that's not the neumonic we're using for cranial nerves
We use the "not so female friendly version" here. Hi from Amsterdam!
Hlo zach
Love from India 🇮🇳 ❤
Thanks for watching!
It's sooooooo funny for someone who says he didn't need to "take notes in medical school" to not remember duo-jeju-ileum and needed a mnemonic for that. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Instead of LMNOP you can think 'POLMN' !
I am from india
6 minutes early huh
I study medicine in Spanish 🥲
Some Lovers Try Positions, That They Cannot Handle :)
Definitely a good one
