Starting medical school can feel like drinking from a firehose—one day, you’re diving into biochemistry, anatomy, and physiology, and the next, you’re untangling the brachial plexus and cardiac output. It’s an overwhelming amount of detail, and many students struggle to keep up.
Here’s the key: While mastering the details is important, never lose sight of the big picture!
🔹 Don’t just memorise lists and facts.
🔹 Always ask HOW and WHY
HOW do these concepts connect?
WHY are they important in clinical practice?
Understanding the bigger picture will help you integrate knowledge, think critically, and ultimately become a better doctor. Stay curious and stay ahead! 🚀
