Who is studying how to study rather than actually studying
During my m1 year, we were asked a question to pick out a blood vessel that we should palpate to feel out a pulse for a reason I do not recall. We were given a few different choices. I saw one artery and 4 different vessels. I reasoned that the artery must be given priority if our goal is to attempt to feel a pulse. I got it right. 4 of my groupmates did not. They asked me how I got the answer correct and when I explained my reasoning, they wrote it off. One girl then said loudly, “he doesn’t want to share where he got his answer.” Coming from a math and finance background, that’s when I learned that some people in medicine are great at memorizing but are mediocre (at best) at reasoning.
Lactic acidosis is caused because it leads to anaerobic resporation since metformin blocks gluconeogenesis in the liver.
100% agreed
I experienced the opposite. Im in pre med, everyone hated subjects that are pure memorization such as bacteriology and histopath (the stains😭). We live off connecting dots and everything must have a rationale for us to memorize quickly.
Bruhhh GNGS😅
The real problem related to the first technique is adjustment of learning deepness i mean if you wonder every mechanisms which is behind every single fact you will spend your time
Yeah that’s true
Absolutely true
It won't be effective and efficient
We do not have always time
exactly. I can't figure out how to manage it.
I'm so used to any video about studying to just be about how we should use Anki and spaced repetition. It's refreshing to see a video with different techniques that I almost never hear about.
I've used obsidian note-taking before, so now I want to learn how to use it better in my last semester of undergrad before medical school starts so I can get a head start in note-organization!
I feel like in order to get the big picture with less time, you could also just find a tutor that you can bug with lots of questions or annoy the professors
Santiago, thank you for creating this extremely unique and value adding video. You are clearly highly intelligent and creative both. Most videos don't go beyond the vomitted ActiveRecall and Spaced Repetition. Thank you brother you've given me ideas and confirmed some I already had.
Very very helpful, I will definitely implement these practices in my studies.
Intelligence and quick acquiring knowledge are the true blessing not ever one can understand everything.person who lost it,searching for this type of videos like restless soul.
1/ Study with "why", actively answer the question
2/ Remember and understand the general,topic instead going to detail
3/ Learn outside the box, connect the knowledge in a different field,subject
Maybe you know that they speak French, German and (pseudo)Dutch (Flamish) in Belgium. So without ever having seen it on a map, you could deduce that it's probably located between those three countries. I totally agree with you that meta-knowledge is often way more important than the specific fact. There is only so much you can learn and by learning generally applicable principles, you are able to "know" so much more than if you only learned the specific
Very useful you just maked my life easier!
I wonder, could you explain how you can use these methods to review concepts in a systematic manner? For boards review for example? Do you just read the notes from start to finish or is there a specific method you use for spaced repetition?
I need another like button. The methods you mentioned is what creates scientists, not mere medical students. Thank you!
Your videos are amazing. They would be better if you had the sponsored part have its own section.
1st technique But the textbooks are already very detailed if I go into more details that will be too much I think
Hola Santiago! Qué porciento de preguntas correctas crees sea un buen average en UWorld en modo tutor?
Thank you
Hello Santiago! Could you please make a video on how you think AI will impact the medical field and if medicine is at risk of being automated? I would love to see your polished opinion on this topic.Kepp up the good work.
Risk of being automated? Risk?? Its like saying the risk of ultrasound will abolish the use of clinical examination
@@ebuhkary well, diagnostic images have significantly reduced the depth of the typical physical exam. Decades ago cardiologists spent years training their ears to differentiate between a high pitch holosystolic crescendo murmur and a mesosystolic low pitch murmur. Now they just need to detect the murmur and get an echo. Nowadays almost no one spends the 10 minutes it used to take to auscultate a patient, and even if they did they would still rely more on the results of the echo. Same thing with surgeons and CT scans. Abolish is not the right word, but new tech does make q bunch of practices “obsolete”
Red socks of destiny? i'm curious
hello Sntiago i would like to ask you about cloze deletion type flashcards which serves one peice of info at a time , do u think its better than the Q and A style which serves a bigger pic of info in the same flash card
i say this to people all the time and no one believes me or takes it seriously. understanding > memorizing. you'll always remember what you understand over what you memorized.
Hola Santiago ! Podrías por favor hacer un vídeo de como aprendiste inglés o que herramientas o cursos realizaste para mejorarlo? Muchas gracias 😄
The first principle is how I made a connection between type 1 diabetes and the Bubonic Plague
In the first technique you want us to know cause of the cause
Advantages
More comprehension
More memorization
Disadvantages
It will take time
Question how to know how deep I should go?
Of course everything good takes time.
I wonder how to know how deep to go, as well.
Another thing is, many things in medicine are not explained so you literally don't know why.. That's what I dont like and have a harder time to recall
I wish these videos would be without a sales pitch. Becomes less trustworthy with the salesman aspect
This is exactly what i did in med school and i always thought i am doing it wrong
This techniques can be useful, but I have a problem with the first.
The problem is this: question only the "why" of the thing don't permite to evaluate the true of that thing. Is how say I will study why Moon afect to the Cancers without question if the astrology is correct, or why the marxism is correct without question if the colectivism is correct or incorrect.
Maybe, question first "this is true or false?" or something how that, and after the "why", could be better, incluse if only with the "why" the student can improve his memory.
Good "luck" to everyone that search to improve the study capacities.
Once i loosed logic to reason, i once failed a question of what is the distance of tge meckels diverticulum from the ileocecal valve, i wrote 2inches instead of 2 feets and unfortunately, the two options were at my mind but my logic defined feets being a huge distance😢😢😢, then opted fir 2 inches
Well, I usually do reasoning, but in fact, I usually I forget the reasoning I made 😅. I have no clue on how to solve this situation
I don’t get it why can some people Jsut read it and know everything on the page. Or some people used to be able to do that and then can’t anymore after ptsd etc etc ????
I don't have a laptop I just have a tab how do I use scrintal
So for the first teqnique, what if i don't get the answer from the "why" question. Like i just spend my whole time for one question. I always get stuck. Can you give me some advice?
What he meant was probably if you can't "memorise 100 words description" try to find how the thing functions, so your brains will know how it works and you'll write the description yourself by knowing how the thing functions.
Example could be a recipe. Lets say you are a beginner cook, Instead of memorising X amount of words you know that you gotta season ur food and cook it on a pan, your brains fill the rest.
funny that i knew you’d talk about ww2 when you mentioned belgium and realized that’s how i remember which ones belgium and which ones the netherlands
Some interesting concepts, but it’s basically an ad for Scrintal
Absolutely agree with you I was always the guy who has good memory in certain things but bad at studies and ever since I got in Physiotherapy school (we have medical subjects and go to medical college in India) I realised that I never had a study problem I had an interest problem I didn't hate chemistry, I hated equations because i didn't understand them, I didn't hate Physics, I hated derivations. I loved Biology because I understood it. The reason didn't understand those things was because I didn't think I needed them so the lack of motivation was because there was a lack of need to achieve a task in my head. When I entered PT (I didn't take med-school because I wanted the easier path) I realised that med school subjects are not like mugging up 200 Physics derivations or Organic and Inorganic chemistry, It made sense to learn that information and I did it with ease. People were surprised why I didn't take medicine and I asked myself the same thing but here I am now and I have chosen a path and I tend to stay on it.
Ain't nobody got time for that
So boring....they are all selling something....
Yea
wow this is how my mind works...i thought i was just procrastinating getting sidetracked lol...i would down myself bc of this
Why are there so many learning youtubers that all did medical school? Are medical students such a good target group for learning courses?
This is confusing. Can you simplify more?
Is he the one in crush course?
Many things are unuseful. That s true
this video will help no one in med school
its too unrealistic
I have bad memories and can't cram so use elons learning techniques from childhood
Do you have links for your keyboard and monitor?
what is your natural IQ?
Hola!!! Porfavor me podrias quitar de esta duda? Como aplicas tus metodos con un idioma??? 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hello sir
I have a question about uworld
Do i need to do random vs un random mood or subject specific random or whole qbank in random mood
Elon 2:26
Thank you Dr Ofenmu for the time you took to make the best herbal medication and also give me the best treatment ever , you are a lifesaver , I'm happy I came across your channel
I did not like it all of them are related to sponsors and applications .
logseq does the same thing as scrintal and has better integration with other resources like anki
Thanks
yes ,but logseq didn't sponsor Santiago
Obsidian canvas too
This technique never works for me, and i am the negative comment you were looking for..
Lost me at 2:40. I don’t think anyone should take advice from Elon Musk. I definitely won’t.
can someone summarise this video?
Yeah, put it on 1.5x speed and watch. Your welcome
Ok so if you're going to do a promotional video just use the appropriate title. The fact that you took time from people's day to display app features instead proven memory methods is why i would never ever download this app.
useless information and emotionless presenter only based on advertisement. haha whole video makes no sense
