Thanks for all the support guys! I have posted my First Day Of Medical School vlog! :D Make sure to check it out!: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DrxpDCuOa6I.html
My internal medicine rotation was in a town that had a medical school.. we saw a couple students coming in for anxiety. As well as one PA student. I’m in PA school so I was completely understanding what she was going through.
Med school is inherently stressful. It has to be, unless you want it to be 10 years long. But Shaun is rocking it these days, and as someone a few years ahead of him, it is all worth it in the end.
Can’t wait to see your journey! I follow a couple of med students on RU-vid who share they start to finish journey, and it is SO SWEET to see the beginning and then see you “grow and mature” into the profession! Good luck!
Ok but I hope my school does this for me and gets me a welcome package. This video made me so excited for like 18 days from now when i start!!! But then the end when you showed your schedule scared me a bit 😂😭
I was definitely so stoked when I saw my School was giving us these. My school really has done a great job with student involvement and making us feel welcome! Congrats on starting medical school soon!! :) you gotta let me know how it goes!
Shaun Andersen, ADMITTED Medical Student! Shaun Andersen, ADMITTED Medical Student! Definitely will! I really like your videos! Your moving videos made me realize how real this is getting for myself 😬 Congrats to you as well! Class of 2024 here we come 😎
Notability and Good notes on iPad Pro is clutch for med school or college in general. This sounds like a top tier med school I’m impressed by the gifts
Oh man 🥺 it seems like a lot of people are saying their schools aren’t prepping stuff like this. Maybe since my school is newer they are prioritizing values like this.
I think you will find that the med schools that offer all this pay for it via increased tuition fees. None of it is free, you are paying for it, just not right now.
15?! You’re so young! That is great that you are already so future oriented! Make sure to work hard but also have a ton of fun during these next few years. You will become anything you want to be- just make sure to enjoy every part of the journey! 😁
I just applied to medical school and this brought such a smile to my face. I hope to be this excited and to be in your position next year!!! New sub fo sho
I have been going back and forth between Nursing and a doctor but recently I’ve been watching so many doctor videos and ugh I think it’s coming back to me and I think I want to be a doctor 🥺.
Thats crazy that they give all that stuff that is exciting. Good luck on your journey man. Im gonna be starting Nurse practitioner school soon and starting youtube channel
Heeeeey good luck on your NP journey!! 😁 I have worked with tons of Nurse Practioners! It is an awesome profession! Good luck with your journey!! :) I’ll definitely keep updated on your progress!
Starting M1 orientation on 7/27! Watching your videos has made it all really sink in! We’re doing small groups for orientation as well and no guests at White Coat Ceremony 🥺 School has yet to officially say if we’re gonna do things in person/online yet. Good luck!!
Aaaahhhh just 2 weeks after I start! I hope you guys get good news about how they will handle orientation /: what is your class size? And our white coat ceremony is also going to be modified :(
Shaun Andersen, ADMITTED Medical Student! It’s not a huge class size but we’re in a state with pretty strict rules so who knows. The college said in person earlier this summer, but then the June-July spike happened 🤷🏼♀️ I guess we’ll just have to see!
That short coat looks sick 🤙 Jealous that your school is a mix of online and in-person; my first week starts Aug 10 and we’ll be entirely online until January 🤷🏽♂️. Looking forward to seeing how your first week goes!
Thanks a ton! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 sorry to hear it will all be online until January /: it’s definitely a bummer considering how hard you worked to attend medical school. This whole situation truly has diluted some of our most meaningful experiences. But, we will get through this, you will become a doctor, and I’m sure you’ll get an awesome experience overall! 🙌🏻
I confess to watching this video entirely too much! If i need motivation or just something relaxing and I don’t know what to watch - i put it on. There’s something about your joy and excitement about your upcoming med school journey that is contagious and inspires me to keep going towards my second bachelors degree. Love it!
Your enthusiasm and excitement for starting Med School makes me so nostalgic for my first year of med school! Also, tres jealous of your gifts! We got some pamphlets, maybe a pen and highlighter, maybe a re-usable waterbottle... and debt!!
Thank you so much! & Congrats to you on finishing medical school! :) I hear a lot of schools do not give their students much in terms of a welcome package :(
That's really cool about the first exam being a "trial run" so to speak. I think most schools should apply that for first year students -- at least allow us to have a shot at figuring out what works and what doesnt lol
That is really what I have loved about my school so far. I haven’t even started and they are already showing so much love and compassion for us students. They are reassuring us and making us feel confident about starting school! I do agree more schools should do this!
Not skipping ads because this people are so humble I cannot. Your girlfriend is so amazing as well! So supportive! She is amazing! Love this vlogs, give me the feels when I was in first year. 👍
Oh my goodness thank you 🙌 ads support starving medical students 😂 just kidding but seriously thank you so much. Your kind words mean so much to me! What year are you in now?
Dang they hooked you guys up with the IPads! You’re gonna find that those are CLUTCH! Goodluck with you first year of Medical School bro! You’re gonna crush it! Just subbed!
Yooo they really did! I didn't really consider getting one before but I am so happy I have it! I use it all the time! & Thanks a ton man :) Means a lot to me! Good luck with PA school!
So I've actually been trying to get into medical school for the longest while and I've faced soo many set backs ( as everyone I guess ) but recently covid has paused all my applications / scholarship plans because of borders being closed etc and some of the schools even sent out rejection letters which I think is unfair because were in a pandemic and they said they'd work with the applicants to get through it as best as they could so I'm bummed that I'm being judged on an incomplete application. I also had to leave my old school which had a combined pre med'/ med program because of some internal administrative issues within the school. Anyway I said all of that to say I have felt really burnt out with all the blocks and decided to take a step back from the " fight " and even medical school related videos. However this showed up in my recommendations and I'm so happy it did . You have such a joy, enthusiasm and optimism about you that's really inspiring. You kind of remind me of me ( you know when I'm not burnt out and my mental health isn't compete crap haha). I always end my application essays with " I bring to you my optimism that's been tested and tried but continues to pervade " and you've helped to reminde of that optism.Dudee you don't know how much you've inspired me . Keep it up bro ! I subbed , turned on post motivations, followed on IG and the whole deal. Sorry if this is so long hahaha. Keep inspiring bro ! ❤
Yoooo this comment left me absolutely speechless (textless?)! I am so sorry for all the set backs. I know these times are tough and everything right now is so uncertain. After everything you went through, I can totally understand how you were burnt out. I am glad you had time to relax a bit and reflect. I am so glad you are feeling more rejuvenated now and are inspired to keep on pushing. Seriously, that means so much to me. You can do this. It is tough, but your work ethic and perseverance is what is going to get you through it and make you an awesome physician some day. You got this. I am rooting for you and cannot wait to see you get into Medical School!
OMG...The ASMR scenes had me rolling. When the GF whispered "Hello guys welcome to my ASMR" as he is unwrapping his Apple pencil I just about lost it. And then Shaun unwrapping the way he did on purpose, 🤣😂🤣 That made my day!!!! I have subscribed and turned on notifications for this channel. I like how real this is. Other channels feels so staged and inauthentic. Keep up the great work and congratulations on your entrance into Medical School. You two make such a cute couple. The GF is very funny too.
I have no idea why we were having so much fun with the ASMR scenes 😂 unboxing everything was just so much fun! We honestly both just love making anything and everything as fun as possible! It's probably why we cant take ourselves very seriously some times 😂 but seriously thank you so much for all the kind words. I appreciate it so much and your support means so much to both of us. PS: you're totally right, Abby is hilarious! 😂 she says the funniest things!
congratulations!!! I was happy watching you open everything up for medical school. I goal is to also go to medical school so watching this just makes me want to get there so much faster. A huge good luck.
Just completed my undergraduate program in med school last year. I miss those days when you could do blunders, create a ruckus and still escape. I remember getting nothing from our college while joining but on the other hand, we used to pay USD 14.41 annually for our college fees. But I find being an intern is the best time in your med life( which I can't enjoy much due to the ongoing pandemic 😅)
HI! I'm a new viewer. I'll witness your journey through med school in the 4 years. I just wanted to say that I really enjoy your personality and that I enjoy your videos. I'm a dental student studying in Egypt and if I'm the one viewer from Africa then I'd feel honored lol
@@ShaunAndersen Thanks. Btw if you don't mind me asking what specs are you rocking on your PC and what games do you play? I noticed you were a gamer so my curiosity peaked xD
Finally! UNLV med school is my top choice for medical school (especially since it’s close to me!). So happy to finally get an “inside” look😭 thank you!
Awesome!! I know I have barely started school here but I already feel so fortunate to have been accepted to this school! Seriously! Good luck to you! :D
Is it what they give in all American med school? LOL I studied in med school in Europe quite a while back, all we got was a pen..... And it doesn't work as well btw
I study in Europe and they did give us macbook during registration...and some of my friends received ipad from their unis...I guess it depends on your uni then
Non-medical students in the comments: Wow, that's awesome! Medical students in the comments: My medical school gave me DEPRESSION I will have to add my name to this list as well haha, now I'm a 4th year and I've become way more cynical about life since I entered medical school. One tip, don't let other ppl get you down because ppl will try their damn hardest to make you miserable like they are, because it gets ROUGH. Ppl will be so stressed that they may let out their frustrations on you -- don't let em!! Find ways to mentally take care of yourself, because once you let that time go to squeeze in some more study time, it'll make you more anxious in the future. Good luck with starting your medical school journey!
Thank you so much for that. You are right. I know this stigma amoungst Medical Students. I think the self-awareness is an important first step. I am going to study my butt off but I am going to also make sure I am happy doing it. Because otherwise, what's the point? So taking care of yourself is very important. Thank you for that advice. I will definitely take it to heard and live by it! Congrats on making it to your 4th year by the way! :)
So excited to follow your journey! By the time you finish med school I’ll be just starting !! Class of 2024 woohoo❤️ never give up your too close. God bless youuuu !!
I just wanted to thank you so much for this video I really enjoyed it and have since tried to find other vids like it turns out there arent any others!!! your excitement shines through we can tell just how excited you are for this new chapter of your life I really enjoy your content Thank You so much for the insight. You got this!
Wait is the ipad yours to keep or will you have to return it at the end of med school? This whole welcome packet is INSANE even if it was just a littman and no ipad id be so impressed but the ipad with accessories really blows my mind! Congratulations on starting med school!!!
My understand is it is ours at least for the duration of medical school but I don’t know if they are to be returned after 😅 I think we keep them though since there would be no value in them after 4 years. Thanks a ton!!
I'm about to enter my senior year as a Kin student in Canada. Just starting to apply to Physio schools as well. Excited to see a fellow Kin-Kid pursuing medicine! Hope you succeed in all your endeavours! :)
Congrats dude once again, all the iPad gear is absolutely insane! I’ve heard paperlike is a good screen protector for writing on if you dont have one yet. Also, good to see you’ve been playing some ow hahaha, hopefully you will have time during school as well to play
I will look up Paperlike! :o & yeah I have been playing OW a ton! I am going to try to at least play a couple times a week but we will see how that goes xD
Medical school is a rollercoaster ride. Amazing some times, absolutely terrible at others. Just keep pushing through the hard times. There’s a light at the end of the tunnel... I think 🤣 I’m halfway there lol.
Thanks for the words of encouragement 😁 I am going to push through the best that I can! Congrats on making it halfway through!! :) You're almost done!!
OK, I'm back again. This video had me laughing so hard. When both go "OOOOOOOOHHHH" when they paired the pencil LOL LMAO!!!!! And that doodle on the screen, "Now I'm able to do this" LOL I can't, this is too funny.
I know you’re about to start your second year soon but coming back to see this video just always makes me so happy because watching you get to this point has been amazing. Like you so deserve it and I’m happy for you
Me in the first day medschool : excited and full of hopes, me weeks before midterm exam : 🤯😨 me after passed final semester exam : 😨😰 me after 3 years : 😭🥺😨😰😱😫🥱🥱
i'm going into undergrad at asu this year, but i've lived in vegas my whole life and was considering just going to unlv for med school! i'm excited to see your journey going through med school and i'm excited to see they gave you so much gear to prep!
Shaun Andersen, MS1 noted! thank you so much! if you don't mind me asking, what was your gpa like in undergrad and what was your mcat score? i kind of what to see what sort of goals i should try to strive for :)
@@ShaunAndersen good to know! I shared with my mom, too, since she works from home (before Covid, too) and we're both always looking for a good chair. 😊
Congrats! Huge accomplishment. I actually watched your “how i wish i studied for the MCAT” video & found it really helpful. Thanks & best wishes on your endeavors :)
I got an iPad for nursing school! It’s super helpful to download PowerPoints and write directly on them! I have the app ‘GoodNotes’! Also if you are writing a research paper you can download all of the scholarly journals into goodnotes and highlight/annotate without printing out 20+ pages!
Man I don’t wanna sound greedy or anything, bro I can barely pay for the food on my table, I’m in undergrad right now but I pray I can be blessed with an admission to a medical school, as well as a laptop or iPad of some kind. No way I can afford all of that without a horrible amount of debt
New subscriber and future neurosurgeon but yk still in highschool but I can’t wait for ur journey to start Ik I’m gonna be here virtual to see it on RU-vid
Dude what’s your class size? Cause UNLV swagged y’all’s class UP. I just bought an iPad Pro and if our school gives us one as a gift, I’ll be pretty sad 😭
