needed time to study each word, memorizing is not enough. Memorizing a word signals the brain that the word has been seen, but it does not identify the word with the meaning. 2) What resources can you utilize to learn medical terminology, as well as anatomy/physiology? There are many resources that you can pull from and use to learn medical terminology, here are two that I think would be helpful. From experience I think flash cards are…

In a recent interview, an interviewer seemed very doubtful in my abilities to do well in medical school because I took my MCAT three times. This has been on my mind a lot and made me wonder if the admissions committee here had the same notion. I would like to spend time to clarify and hopefully eliminate any doubts the committee may have in my ability to do well in medical school and also be a great clinician. Some may view the fact that I took the MCAT three times as it took me three tries to…

The pressure of finding who you are or what you want to become in the future can be quite challenging. There are a list of things that I can do in life. It also take time to find who you are. It may take time for others, but once you find something that you will love to do. The best thing to do is to work for it and if it is not what you plan it would be. Well, there will be another journey that you will go through and that just makes you grow as a person. My love for math and science all…

1. Do you wish to include any comments (in addition to those already provided in your AMCAS application) to the Admissions Committee at Tufts University School of Medicine? Through my unconventional path to this point, I have encountered a number unique and broad experiences. Not all of these experiences have been becoming. Nonetheless, I have taken great strides to learn from these experiences and use them to make me into a better person. I also believe these experiences will shape me into a…

Every year thousands of prospective medical students spend hundreds of thousands of dollars paying for tuition, only to find out that a medical profession does not suit them. Many people aspire to become doctors, whether it be to help others or for the high salary. Yet, they often do not know the difficulties faced by doctors as they study in college, become admitted to medical school, complete their residency, and find the work setting that best suits them. The purpose of this research project…

Thank you for everything you have done for me throughout my high school career. I feel fortunate to have had you for both biology and anatomy. I remember our 4th quarter project freshman and junior year. In biology, I had to research a career that interested me and present it to the class. During this project, I discovered I was interested in becoming a nurse anesthetist. Junior year we had to do a similar project, but take it one step farther and shadow a person in our chosen field. At this…

I’ve always been interested in the medical field. When I was born I was in complete heart block. I had to be transferred to another hospital so they could put in a Medtronic Pacemaker. From a very young age, I was always interested in my pacemaker and how it works. Some days I would spend a lot of my time just thinking about my pacemaker and other surgeries that go on, on a day to day basis. I’ve have been told the common information about why I needed it but I always wanted to know more…

known for many different styles of art. The Ars Anatomica collection is prints that Leo did of the human anatomy. They are usually presented in the form of a book, but in the Leepa museum they are all hung together so you can see them as a collection. Baskin uses dark lines to shade and depict the human anatomy. In the two works that I am using, the prints show the images of the human anatomy in an honest form. The first print…

Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology Anatomy means the structure of the human body. Ana (making) Tomy (cutting.) Physiology means the study of normal human body’s functions. Physio (physical) Logy (study.) There are two different types of anatomy, which are Gross Anatomy and Microscopic Anatomic. Gross Anatomy refers to the structures that can be seen with the eyes. For example: the heart, the liver, and the kidneys. There are several subdivisions of Gross Anatomy such as; surface anatomy,…

angles can be used to elongate or foreshorten parts of the anatomy that are the necessary focus of a radiographic study. Some examples include the tangential calcaneus and axial cranium projections. These directional changes of the tube can be very beneficial when trying to diagnose certain fractures, blastomas, and other assorted pathologies that would have been difficult to see on a radiograph with standard perpendicular CR…
