How do you know if you are TOO nervous for an exam? Do you actually have anxiety disorder or are you in the realm of normal, but not sure what to do about it?

Bara Sapir from www.TestPrepNY.com explains how she went from teaching at Princeton Review to  coaching students through test anxiety using a myriad of techniques, including neurolinguistic programming, meditation, biofeedback, and hypnosis.

We already plan for more interviews with Test Prep New York, especially about the field of Neurolinguistic Programming and what it can do for medical students. However, our next episode will be the second interview in a three-part series with Dr. Brett Ferdinand of MCAT (http://www.mcat-prep.com/?a=dmw0619) Gold Standard as we discuss the proper mindset and how to use practice tests to assess your study techniques (as opposed to predicting your performance).

You know you want to know your MCAT or USMLE score in advance! We all want to grade our practice tests to relieve our anxiety, but are we really doing ourselves a favor?

Doctors Brett Ferdinand and Daniel Williams explain that the proper mindset for approaching standardized tests is to constantly assess different learning techniques - as opposed to trying to predict how well you&#039;ll do on the real exam.

To learn more about Dr. Ferdinand&#039;s Gold Standard MCAT practice tests, click here: MCAT.



That is, just like the physician orders tests on a patient ONLY if it serves some useful purpose - only take practice tests to determine if you need to change your study techniques. Dr. Dan has an entire Speed Reading for Medical School course, where he explains all of the different types of techniques in detail, but this podcast focuses on exactly where to get full-length practice MCAT&#039;s and explanations - even for the incorrect answers!

Enjoy...

		<itunes:summary>Episode 52: In this episode, Doctor Dan interviews Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum, a physician who got Chronic Fatigue Syndrome as a result of a viral infection while in medical school.


Chronic Fatigue Syndrome:
CFS can  result from a variety of causes and is most commonly idiopathic.
The condition can be devastating, as Dr. Teitelbaum describes in this interview how he went from Medical Student to homeless on a park bench, where he truly learned about Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
How to diagnose chronic fatigue syndrome:

	* Truly listen to your patient
	*  Document insomnia despite extreme fatigue
	* More than 3 months in duration
	* Severe, disabling fatigue

How to treat chronic fatigue syndrome:
Use the SHINE protocol, shown to provide relief for 91% of patients:
S - Sleep 7-8 hours per night using medication toward the goal of restorative sleep.
H - Hormonal support
I - Infections: diagnose and treat underlying or secondary infections during this immune-suppressed period
N - Nutritional support
E - Exercise as able.

		<itunes:summary>Episode 1: MCAT Prep like you&#039;ve never heard before. Dr. Ferdinand and Dr. Dan discuss the MCAT from a physician&#039;s point of view. With both doctors actively coaching premedical students, their synergy on this subject is nothing short of a Mastermind!





Dr. Ferdinand’s tells us about his not-so-secret performance on the MCAT (http://http://www.mcat-prep.com/?a=dmw0619) and about his fatal error during planning his MCAT (http://http://www.mcat-prep.com/?a=dmw0619) that caused him to not be able to even take the exam!



The Association of American Medical Colleges administers the MCAT, accredits allopathic medical schools in the U.S., and manages the medical school application service.

The trend over the past 2 decades has been to emphasize thinking, organizing information, and problem solving rather than rote memorization.

In this episode, we two physicians discuss exactly why that is, what you can do to prepare, and ultimately whom you can trust when it comes to such an important exam – yourself!

Future episodes will cover

	* Dr. Ferdinand’s 6 Steps to MCAT Preparation, which is remarkably similar to my 5-Step study method.
	* Dr. Ferdinant’s interview with the &quot;Father of MCAT Books&quot; (Dr. Flowers)
	* How a mastermind community can help premeds AND medical students

Dr. Ferdinand Interview #1

		<itunes:summary>Episode 8: Are you a stressed out resident? What about a medical student or Pre-Med that wants a leg up on what your about to get in to? Well, Dr. Dan discusses the first peer-reviewed article on medial education: Sources of Stress for Residents and Recommendations for Programs to Assist Them.





Let&#039;s face it, if becoming a doctor was easy, more people would want to do it. It can be said that the long premedical journey is a game of attrition, but that the real tests don&#039;t come until later.

Of course, when your a Pre-Med student you don&#039;t want to hear that... In fact, when we went to Welcome Weekend at my medical school in 2003, they gave us T-shirts that said lke &quot;And you thought the hardest part of medical school was getting in...&quot;.Ha!

No doubt about it, this life is tough.

Most medical blogs and interviews end there, unfortunately, and don&#039;t go into detail about exactly what is so hard about medical education.

Well, that&#039;s exactly what this audio podcast is about!

Dr. Dan reviews the article on Sources of Stress of Residents, the first of his educational series.

As a preview, there are three main categories of stress in medical education: situational, personal and professional.
Situational stress in medical residency:

	* inordinate hours
	* sleep deprivation
	* excessive work load
	* overbearing clerical and administrative duties
	* inadequate support from allied health professionals
	* too many difficult patients
	* conditions for learning that are less than optimal

Personal stress as a medical resident:

	* family - good or bad
	* financial issues
	* limited free time to relax or develop new support systems
	* psychosocial concerns
	* inadequate social skills

Professional stress as a resident and medical student:

	* responsibility for patient care
	* supervision of more junior residents and students
	* difficult patients and problems
	* information overload
	* career planning in an tumultous reform environment

What stresses you that is not on this list? Answer in the comment field below...</itunes:summary>

		<itunes:summary>Episode 9: Learn the factors that reduce stress in clinical rotations. Taken from Dr. Haglund&#039;s paper from 2009, Dr. Dan discusses the implications of their findings in an effort to better prepare medical students for the challenges that lie ahead.





Are you surprised to learn that 80% of medical students experienced personal mistreatment, discrimination and verbal abuse during the 3rd year of medical school? If so, you probably haven&#039;t gone through it yet.

This extensive medical student resilience study (http://journals.lww.com/academicmedicine/Abstract/2009/02000/Resilience_in_the_Third_Year_of_Medical_School__A.38.aspx) published in February 2009 utilized more than 10 scientifically validated surveys, administering to the third year class at Mount Sinai Medical School in New York. The studies looked at everything from anxiety, depression, personal growth during the third year to students&#039; own history of abuse and post traumatic stress symptoms all triggered by experiences in the third year of medical school in 2006-2007.

It is the largest study of it&#039;s kind in terms of scope and many take home points can be learned from this paper.

	* 80% of medical students experienced some form of belittlement or abuse from attendings and residents while in the third year of medical school
	* Trauma didn&#039;t have an overall impact on psychological well-being, however their baseline for &quot;well-being&quot; was the end of the second year of medical school, right around the time of the USMLE Step 1 Exam - ha!
	* The more trauma experienced, the more personal growth occurred
	* Medical students witnessed an average of 2 traumatic events during the third year, which is the lifetime average of the general population in the United States
	* Medical students felt less supported by peers and supervisors as the year progressed, though the rate of traumas didn&#039;t change

What type of stressful or traumatic experiences have you had? Please share them in the comments section below and learn more about stress management community groups.</itunes:summary>

		<itunes:summary>Episode 10: Dr. Dan interviews the Chief Operating Officer of a renowned U.S. Medical Licensing Exam prep company and delves into why professional prep courses have become important in the last 5-10 years. What will your USMLE Step 1 score be?





The United States Medical Licensing Exam is equivocal to a final exam for all of medical school. There are 4 of them total: Step 1, Step 2 Clinical Knowledge, Step 2 Clinical Skills, and Step 3. I have taken and passed all four of them.

As the demand for physicians increase and imbalances between residency slots and medical school graduates fluctuates, professional USMLE Prep review courses have become common place for more and more students. Very soon these will be required practically and hopefully financial aid should be made available.

Until then...

You may qualify for grant funding to pay for USMLE Prep or MCAT Prep in a program to be launched in 2010.

		<itunes:summary>Episode 14: Are you a perpetual people pleaser? Did it start as a Pre-Med? Dr. Dan reviews a recent article published by The New Physician in which the reasons for premed student unhappiness are exposed. &quot;Basically, you just need to do what makes you happy - and stop worrying about what some admissions committee is going to think years from now.&quot;

Listen to this 10 minute podcast to get the rest of the story...



Physicians are altruistic, but can we go too far? Daniel Erhman from the University of Michigan Medical School thinks so - and I agree with him.

In the most recent edition of The New Physician, Daniel does a great job of articulating how trying to please a premed adviser can lead to unhappiness. Believe it or not, there are tons of choices for volunteer and research opportunities. If you have a tough time choosing, you may want to reconsider how sure you are that you want to be a physician in the first place.

I mean, if you&#039;re so sure you want to be a doctor but haven&#039;t a clue what interests you, then how can you claim to know what you&#039;re talking about? More importantly, be honest with yourself about your reasons for wanting to become a physician. If you don&#039;t really want to write the truth on your application because of how it might be perceived, then you aren&#039;t creative enough to put a positive spin on who you are and what makes you tick.

Dr. Dan can help.

Leave your comments below and let me know your questions about how to best explain your motivations for choosing the volunteer and research opportunities that you did.

Best,

Dr. Dan</itunes:summary>

		<itunes:summary>Episode 15: Drinking water from a fire hydrant? Learn what the scientific literature says about the medical school experience. Everyone gets overwhelmed, but what separates those that are successful from those who fail?

Listen to this 37 minute podcast as Dr. Dan outlines this important phase in the development of the future physician.





The first semester of medical school is, no doubt, the most academically challenging experience of a physician&#039;s career. The skills developed early on transcend what can be taught in a traditional classroom, as only recent graduates can recall the specifics of what is faced there.

Our literature shows us several categories of stressors that all conspire to make the academic workload challenging, besides the sheer volume of information: financial, personal, ethical, and academic performance.

I takes each of these categories and teaches what the literature has to say about these topics in detail. This 37 minute podcast is a sample of the full Wellness Program that utilizes my Mastermind Conferences (a part of my high-end coaching program).

&quot;Currently, I take 15 students per year through the course and cater our Mastermind Teleconferences to fit everyone&#039;s schedule as much as possible.&quot;

Listen in to the unique teaching style and content that this group enjoys and consider joining yourself!</itunes:summary>

Listen to the 17 minute podcast here...





No amount of preparation is going to make you feel good when you are post-call. Sorry...

But did you know there are a lot of things you can do to maintain psychological and (some semblance of) physical well-being during medical school?

In this podcast, I explore my thorough literature search around what characterizes the types of stressors that we successful medical students get used to. Notice I said there will be stress and we will get used to it!

Not all stress is bad. In fact, there is such thing as a &quot;sweet spot&quot; in the Anxiety-Achievement Curve. Included in the Medical School Mindmap is the specific journal article that discusses the phenomenon of how stress helps performance - up to a point. Then, as stress continues to increase (in the first weeks of medical school, for example), performance can suffer. I&#039;ll help you understand how to use stress to your advantage in my Medical Mastermind Platinum Group.

Until then, hang in there and post your comments below to seek help with stress in medical school!

Merry Christmas,

		<itunes:summary>Episode 17: Discover the best-kept secrets of Interview Day. Here Dr. Dan explains what things to keep in mind when choosing a medical school and residency - by learning what the scientific literature says our challenges are.

Listen to the 48 minute podcast here...





From disappointment with yourself, peers and program directors to the U.S. health care system et. al. we&#039;ll take a broad look at these daunting topics so you&#039;ll be better prepared for your career.

After a thorough literature search of over 200 peer-reviewed articles, I organized them into 5 Phases In The Evolution Of A Physician In Training.

This topic of &quot;The Let-Down&quot; represents Phase 4 from these five developmental stages.

Essentially, disappointment comes from failure to meet an expectation. In this audio MP3 podcast, I explain what common, realistic expectations are when it comes to the altruistic premedical student discovering what realities are in today&#039;s health care machine.

While this topic covers painful experiences of medical school and residency, there is hope! Phase 5 is called Reemerging Priorities, as we get back to our fundamental values that drove us into medicine in the first place.

If I can help guide you along this path, join the Medical Mastermind Community today!

God bless,

Listen to the 33 minute podcast here...



This podcast is all about Reemerging Priorities, which is Phase 5 Evolution for the Physician In Training.

We all have &quot;ah ha&quot; moments and even feel relaxed and appreciated occasionally along the medical school education pipeline. Well, Phase 5 is the culmination of everything you&#039;ve worked for for the last 10 years or so.

And what a relief...

No longer do you have to study exactly what someone else tells you to, at least not traditionally. You can learn Evidence-Based Medicine or any other favorite topic at your own pace now.

It&#039;s in Phase 5 that you can become an independent lifelong learner and be proactive about the educational and research directions that you choose.

My, how liberating!

If you&#039;ve made it that far, please let us know how it feels! We&#039;d love to hear from practicing physicians to tell us that this long path is worth it in the end!

Cheers,
Dr. Dan</itunes:summary>

		<itunes:summary>Episode 19: Ever wish you had the T.A. in your pocket? Well, now you can. In this interview with Liam Martin, we discuss a revolutionary new tutoring program for Pre-Med prerequisites that is completely over the internet and telephone. Now you can have a grad student coaching you on study techniques, high yield facts, and efficiency.

Listen to this 33 minute podcast here...





In this episode, I interview Liam Martin a Pre-Med tutor who has gone pro.

If you are a medical student already, then you probably don’t want to listen to this episode. However, listen long enough to understand how this remote tutoring works and let me know if you would use remote tutoring for medical school.

Liam has put together a national network of graduate students that are each obtaining their Master’s or Ph.D.’s in the various premed prerequisites. He’s used his experience tutoring and studying successful students to devise specific programs for each course you need to take as a premed (biology, chemistry, etc.)

They build your confidence, motivate and hold you accountable to your study plan so that you can really achieve your goals.

Don’t make the mistake of taking premedical prerequisites early on in college and make B’s and C’s, not to mention worse grades or incompletes.

We all know that getting an A&#039;s on prerequisite subjects are practically essential to get into medical school. A list of A&#039;s on your college transcript can easily catch the attention of admissions staff when you apply to Med Schools. The prerequisites include Biology, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics, English, and often Calculus. Always check with the medical schools you’re applying to and verify their admissions requirements.

Getting A’s initially in college seems hit and miss for many students. I get a lot of emails from people after they’ve damaged their science GPA.

I recommend starting off with their tutoring service for your prerequisite courses from the beginning to learn the study techniques and work ethic that they will instill. Then, you can decide if you can ace your courses on your own from that point onward.

These tutorials represent a robust way to prepare for tests in undergrad and especially when you&#039;re about to take the MCAT.

If you sign up for tutorials, you will be expected to attend and participate. They allow you to have mini lectures, but mostly the time will be spent discussing the content to ensure that you leave the session with a thorough grasp of the material being covered.

The purpose of tutorials is that first it can promote clearer and deeper understanding through dialogues. This allows students to actively raise questions and draw on the knowledge or experience of the grad student.

This style of learning really caters to kinesthetic, audio and video learners as well as students who learn through discussion. An added benefit is building confidence to discuss advanced scientific topics in a public forum, which can help in medical school.

To get the most out of your tutoring sessions, here are some preparation steps that

1. Review the relevant lecture

2. Read or work on the set problems given.

3. Prepare questions on topics you don&#039;t understand

What’s the catch?

Their Pre-Med Tutoring program is only available for a limited time. So, sign up now: Pre-Med Tutors DISCOUNT (http://premedtutors.com/premedbonus1)

		<itunes:summary>Episode 21: What USMLE book should you buy? How about all of them! In this interview with Kiran Bellubbi, I unveil a new collaboration project for the USMLE and COMLEX. You can now get online access to multiple publishers&#039; titles for less than the cost of one book!!

Listen to this 30 minute podcast here...



The United States Medical Licensing Examination, or the USMLE for short, is a four-part licensing examination series that is required in order to receive a state license to practice medicine in the United States. Allopathic (M.D.) students take the USMLE, while Osteopathic (D.O.) students take the Comprehensive Osteopathic Medical Licensing Examination (COMLEX).

These exams play a crucial role in the student’s advancement through the different stages of medical education. Ideally, these tests ensure that the would-be physicians demonstrate that they understand and can apply the knowledge necessary to practice medicine safely and intelligently.

However, we all know that standardized exams have some inherent weaknesses and each question is practically required legally to give you some telltale sign indicating the correct answer. It’s up to you to know what that is!

So, every year medical students from around the country buy books and online question banks and plow through a grueling and tiring mountain of content to ensure that they get the residency they want and ultimately their medical license.

But what if you could get access to 20 books’ content online – all in one place? And for less than the price of one book?

Well, you’d be crazy not to listen to this podcast…

In this podcast, I interview the co-founder of a revolutionary web site that hosts multiple USMLE/COMLEX publishers’ content – offering 20+ books in one place. Check it out here at www.Medi-Tribe.com (http://www.medi-tribe.com/).

Kiran Bellubbi and I discuss how supplementing your test preparation harnessing the power of social media can really propel you to the next standard deviation on your exam.

They have years of experience in the United Kingdom and have recently obtained permission from U.S. publishers, such as Lippincott, Williams, and Wilkins. All you have to do is an Amazon search for the USMLE/COMLEX books they publish and compare that to online access at a fraction of the cost.

That’s right, you get all their best books for one low price. These guys definitely meet our standard for interviews here by doing new and different strategies that can help medical and premedical students.

What’s more, thousands of community votes have purified their collection of nearly 3,000 questions with full explanations for all answer choices. What’s left are only the highest yield, best explained, and relevant questions that you will need to succeed on the COMLEX or USMLE.

Kiran is one of the founders of www.MediTribe.com (http://www.meditribe.com/), a unique website that has a content on USMLE/COMLEX prep and says that they have about 2800 questions available for users the answer and to interact with. 1,400 are free!

In addition, they offer index card-style case reviews with identical content in books plus many that are exclusively released by the publishers for the internet. Combine that quality with the opinions from the community and you have a unique product that rivals USMLE World and Kaplan.

This kind of subscribing is available of a discounted price of $35 a month plus other forms of discounts are available. With this kind of payment, no wonder this website is helpful – it’s a cheap yet effective way to meet your goals on the USMLE or COMLEX.

What can a Couple of dollars can hurt much if we pass? Not much except our pocket book. All of these book titles are priced at less than the cost of one book. They’re also coming out with a 3-month discount option.

So, before you buy your next USMLE or COMLEX book, check out the 1,400 free questions at www.meditribe.com (http://www.meditribe.com/).</itunes:summary>

		<itunes:summary>Episode 23: Doctor Dan gives away secrets about his preparation for medical school, integration of speed reading techniques, and his major tenant of goal setting for EACH reading session. These show notes also reveal key insights into discovering your own, innate learning style.

Listen to this 33 minute podcast here...




Where did you get your tricks, Doctor Dan?
How does a guy go from dropping out of high school and not getting into medical school to creating the most robust, customized study course for medical student on the planet?

As Malcom Gladwell would say in his book Outliers, opportunity, 10,000 hours of practice, and cultural legacy.

We all know that medical school is not easy. Clearly a certain, minimum of intellegence is required to be a competent physician. By merely reading a lot of books,  some medical students appear from the outside to have mastered the study skills necessary to beat the numbers game.
But, is that enough for you?
Here are a couple of free resources I&#039;ve put together to sample the How To Study Medicine Course:
MEDICAL SPEED READING 101
&amp;
INNATE LEARNING STYLES 201
Read along in the 201 Innate Learning Styles 201 lecture using these handout notes:
HOW TO STUDY MEDICINE - STEP 1:
Learning style theory will help you make a beginning to studying your own best methods for retention.
Students have different ways to take in and process information. It can be through audio, visual, reading, analyzing, and interacting. First and foremost you have to indentify first what kind of learner you are.

 

 

 
Different learning styles:

	* Reading

-        This is required, obviously. I don&#039;t teach short cuts or gimicks that would mislead you into thinking you don&#039;t have to ready your medical school syllabus 2-3 times and the text books. Just do it.

Instead, the lecture on Study Techniques teaches 14 categories of different techniques to finally let you get the most out of reading, including interactive processes to keep you engaged in what you are reading.

	* Listening

-         Increasingly, our society is getting away from reading and moving towards audio/visual learning. It&#039;s a lazy man&#039;s way, at least it used to be. Reading is still a powerful skill and can help you stand out among your competition, particularly in undergrad, but if you have the opportunity to access recordings or make your own this can help tremendously.

I put together a specific slide show presentation on Using MP3 Files To Study In Medical School that you will greatly benefit from.

	* Watching

-                   This type of learners prefers pictures and images. Video is increasingly popular too and many medical schools post their lectures online. I know mine did and I used them instead of live lectures every chance I could.

On disk #1 of the CD of the Month Club, I discuss how you can speed up boring professors and shave hours off your lecture time every week.

	* Kinesthetic (&quot;Doing&quot;)

-                  There are dozens of ways to interact with the material you&#039;re studying, but I&#039;ve condensed them into 14 Categories Of Study Techniques. Few people use this learning style primarily, but if you never tested yourself to see if you were among this 15%, you&#039;d be missing out on a huge opportunity to make learning more exciting and enjoy tons more free time.

	* Discussing

-                   Study groups can help, but make sure you&#039;re not surrounding yourself with anyone that stresses you out. Stress minimizes long-term memory during studying, however research shows that stress after a study session can be beneficial. So go for a run after a study group, then be relaxed and centered again for the exam itself!

	* Teaching

-                   I encourage you, if you have the time, to type up your own chapter summaries and share them with your friends. If you&#039;re competitive, you can do this with people in other classes.</itunes:summary>

Listen to this 19 minute podcast here...



Thank you for your participation in the surveys that I email out through the Medical School Newsletter. Your comments are very much appreciated.

I use your comments to direct the show&#039;s content, so you DO have a voice!

There are several themes that I see emerging after nearly two years of podcasting, conducting Mastermind Teleconferences, and getting AMSA&#039;s Mastermind Program off the ground:

	* Medical students are excited to find hope through Mastermind Support Groups.
	* Making money in medical school is of huge interest (stay tuned for a future Medical School Podcast on the subject).
	* How To Study Medicine and manage all of your responsibilities in medical school is universal.

If you have a question you&#039;d like covered in a Mastermind Group Teleconference, here&#039;s a new web page that is designed for just that: Ask Doctor Dan.

Let me know how I can help you,

It&#039;s hard to believe that I&#039;ll soon be reaching the 2-year mark in podcasting, beginning with the Pre-Med Podcast.

Thank you for all your support! The CD of the Month Club student body and listner emails have kept me going. I couldn&#039;t have done it without you.

I did start out by surveying the listeners to guide podcast topics, but have now found a much better way to deliver exactly what you want - no matter who you are.

Groups of medical and premedical students from all over the world are meeting at regular intervals to get their questions answered from journal articles, air their grievances, and find mutual support from classmates, doctors and student doctors.

The Mastermind Group Schedule changes frequently, but the Meeting Format remains the same. We use teleconferencing software to meet in a virtual classroom on the internet, where you can view the Power Point presentations on my office computer.

Students participate in the discussion as experts in their own right, drawing from their own life experiences. You can even choose all the topics! I only ask that you submit Mastermind Group topics at least 1 week in advance to give time for adequate preparation.

I hope to talk to you in our next meeting!

God bless,
