Wow u covered alot in a short time. This would be good to save for those who know there taking the test soon as they can keep repeating the video. When I was a Nurse the genetic specialists fascinated me. Like Holly smokes there brains are packed full of things u never hear of. My question is. When u studied Marfan did u also study Beals syndrome. My grandson was born in 2000 with Beals. All 10 of his specialists knew he had some kind of syndrome but had no clue as to what. They had to wait a yr for appt with genetic doc. While waiting he had a GTUBE, TRACH. It was the NORD institute who actually suspected BEALS . The genetic appt was 5 hrs. She had all the tests done prior. Now they suspect alot of marfan babies actually are misdiagnosed and actually have BEALS syndrome instead which in 2000 the genetic specialist prodected would happen. 🤔 of course I'm not a med student but once you've been in the medical field u just crave learning. I thank u.
Thanks for sharing that Sherry :) Quite honestly, I've only come across BEALS in passive reading - never had a dedicated lecture on it or seen a case while in the hospital - plenty of instruction on Marfan syndrome though. I'm sure that with your personal experience as well as your nursing career you definitely know a lot more about that syndrome than most medical students - with maybe the exception of those with a particular interest in genetic syndromes? The Step 1 and USMLE exams in general (as well as the Canadian exams) are done before we become staff physicians. I would suspect that many conditions (including BEALS) are reviewed with us in more depth during residency :) Keep on learning 💪😎
yooo this is really good .. ive finished these topics and yaaa bro i feel like i can do the exam and pass easy .. gl dr..still ive a lot of amboss q to finish tho :)
Great to hear it Ali 😎💪 Keep the confidence strong and finish as much of the Q bank as you possibly can! All the best and feel free to let me know how it went for you afterwards :D
Glad it helped Karim :) I'm a week out from my Canadian boards and a month out from the Step 2. If there's an interest in more high yield videos, the I can definitely make more. Best of luck with your exam!
@@nxtgenmd I watch this video almost every morning to wake up and hammer it in. Wish you the best of luck on your exams my friend. You deserve all the best.
It's a beast of an exam, but break it down into chunks :) Pace yourself and focus on practice questions and high yield review. Best of luck with everything!
