There were 11 things that I actually used on a regular basis in my first year of medical school that I would say are essential. I always have every one of these items in my backpack at all times.

I think my favorite thing about your videos is your sense of humor, and you're not afraid to laugh and poke fun at yourself.

This is going to be my first comment ever on KZfaq and it's going to be on this video. Great content and I'm glad I stumbled on your channel by accident when searching up how to use Anki (I had Anki for a while but only used it inconsistently because it seems to be inconvenient for me at first). Your passion for Anki is incredible so I am going to give it another try by actually diving deeper into its features. What has inspired you to start a KZfaq channel on top of all your work?

I like my MDF stethoscope because it's got the diaphragm on one side and the bell on the other so you don't have to worry about how hard to press. Also being a heart and vascular nurse for two years I've only used the bell to listen for bruits

I had to get notes for Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, Patho, Microbio, Pharma, Medicine, Surgery, OBG, Paedia, Ortho, Neuro, psychiatry and Radiology.
