I’m currently a third year in medical school and my boyfriend and I have been together for a little over a year and a half now. We met during the summer after first year, and it’s funny because I was pretty keen on not starting a relationship back then. My focus was on school and doing well in my second year. Long story short, it obviously all worked out :)
Read MoreMany of us use the beginning of a New Year to set goals and resolutions to become a better version of ourselves in the new year.

Read MoreWhen I was studying for my Step 1 back in May 2016, I quickly realized how valuable driving/commuting time can be if used properly. Under the pressure of the strict Step 1 study schedule, audio lecture was one of the ways I utilized what used to feel like wasted time in the car/train. I used Dr. Goljan's Pathology lectures*. I loaded it onto my iPod and set it to play automatically whenever I turned on the car. Thanks to Dr. Goljan's colorful personality and lecture style, I almost always continued to listen through my entire trip no matter how short or far the distance. I'm pretty sure I was able to repeat some of his jokes word for word at some point.
