G3 MSTP Student Ready to Help!

[Thoroughbred_Med]

As the title suggests, I am ready to answer any questions you may have regarding what it is like in an MSTP program! I know I had a lot going through the application cycle and even before.

Experiments are closing up as my thesis work comes to a close and I have a bit of free time.

Shoot away!

What did you do if anything during your grad school years to keep your clinical skills and knowledge up to par?

To be honest, you don't really have any clinical skills at that point. And your clinical knowledge is also very limited. Towards the end of your PhD, when you're about to re-enter the clinical world, you might consider using something like OnlineMedEd and/or UWorld to help warm yourself up. That's what I did. But during PhD years, just focus on the PhD. That's my advice.

was your program a 2-3-2 or the 3-3-1 type?

2-3-2...but a 3-year PhD isn't common, we call it 2-4-2.

Did the op really start a thread offering to answer questions and never came back? LOL.

Where are the moderators these days I swear... (Oh yeah, that's me, closing).
