Study Skills Class Debrief Part 3

Study Skills Class Debrief Part 1

Release Date: 06/17/2022

Description: The struggle is real. Not for all med students (or vet, Pharm D, or PA students). But for the students we work with, medical school can be tough — sometimes it's even the first time a student has struggled academically. In our newest podcast miniseries, recent STATMed Study Skills Class alumni share the events that led them to take the Class and how it transformed their approach to studying.  In this episode, Ryan sits down with six recent STATMed Study Skills Class students from different schools, different regions and at different points in their careers who all had one thing in common: they were struggling in med school, PA school, or on the boards. In part one, we meet each of the students who share their reason for taking the STATMed Study Skills Class.  “I was on the brink of failure. I sat through two meetings on my performance and issues within the classroom. The first was patently unhelpful. On the second, I took command and decided to discuss a leave of absence instead of going through the specificity of that course. I found STATMed after doing a thorough search of what’s available within the marketplace. ...I had emailed a couple of them for information and got back quotes that were absolutely outrageous on the hourly fees. And I thought well, I don’t really want to spend $5,000 on a contract for tutoring when I know that I don’t need to be taught what’s going on in the classroom, I need to be helped with what’s not sticking for me. …I typed portions of vignettes of my story directly into Google and found a testimonial of one of your former students that was my story on the page. I thought okay, I could have written this story, so this is the place I need to start.”  -Elise, a first-year medical student

I Failed My Board Exam - What now?

Release Date: 02/04/2022

Description: We can help you figure out what’s next after a failed board exam  “Help! I failed my board exam… can you help me?”  We hear this - or a version of this - statement nearly every day. So, if you’ve failed a board exam, you’re absolutely not alone. And, you’re not necessarily looking at the end of your medical career. At STATMed Learning, we work closely with students who have failed the COMLEX, NAVLE, USMLE, or other medical boards exams.  In this episode of the STATMed Podcast, Ryan Orwig and David LaSalle dig into how STATMed Learning can help students who have failed their medical boards. They break down what students can expect from the STATMed Boards Test-Taking  Workshop and the Boards Study Skills Course. “Just to be clear, I think sometimes it’s easy to think that what we’re talking about is that we’re going to teach you some “hacks” to get past the test-taker, to read the mind of what they’re doing, to “beat the test”. That’s not what we’re talking about. These tests are not something where we can institute two hacks, and all of a sudden our scores are improving. This is really about learning about who you are as a test-taker, historically. We have identified about 15 individual bad habits that people implement while taking tests and working on a test. Most people aren’t doing 15 things wrong, most people are doing maybe four or five things wrong, and of those, they’re doing two or three things wrong all the time, and that’s what is costing them the majority of their questions. So that’s what the Boards Workshop is about; [discovering] the two or three things you’re doing wrong, how to spot them and what to put in place of that behavior. It’s in-depth, it’s intense, and it’s super effective.” - David LeSalle

In Their Words: Former Students Share How STATMed Changed Their Entire Approach to Med School

Release Date: 12/04/2020

Description: Med school is astronomically hard. Students are responsible for an overwhelming amount of information at a whirlwind pace. And, chances are, for some, the study skills that got you through your undergrad aren’t taking you as far as they used to. The STATMed Learning Program was created to share skills and strategies to help in med school. But don’t just take our word for it.  In this podcast, we hear from several alumni from the STATMed Study Skills Class who share their thoughts after taking this 10-day program the summer after their first year of med school.  They dive into how the skills and strategies they learned transformed how they approached med school. From frameworking and retrieval practice to implementing memory palaces, they dig into the approaches that help turn their med school experience around.

Study Skills Class Debrief Part 3

Release Date: 07/01/2022

Description: STATMed Alumni Share the Worst Advice They Received As Struggling Med Students  Not all advice is created equally. And bad advice can come from good intentions, as many of our former students can attest. In part three of this miniseries, Ryan is back with six recent STATMed Study Skills Class alumni. In this episode, they share the worst advice they received about how to study and succeed in med school. "That goes back to the bad piece of advice I'd alluded to was to memorize everything. And this was said to me by the same individual who told me that my previous medical experience doesn't matter, so I didn't necessarily trust the advice, but this goes back to this idea that it's possible to somehow work in a fifth or a sixth pass. And really, all that's doing, and we talked about this in this podcast before, but all it's doing is giving you this idea, this allure, this facade of familiarity. It's not actually giving you that experience, that touchpoint with the material."
