Cả năm làm việc vất vả, cuối năm là dịp để ngồi lại suy nghĩ về gia đình, về bạn bè, và chọn cho họ những món quà thật ý nghĩa.

USMLE STEP 1 – RESOURCES THAT CANNOT BE IGNORED

Ho Tro 16/11/2023 No Comments

USMLE STEP 1 – RESOURCES THAT CANNOT BE IGNORED I remember when I first started preparing for the USMLE Step 1 exam, even though I graduated from university and attended formal medical school in the US, I felt like I was lost in a maze. Countless materials from many sources: books, video lectures, test sets, courses, apps… If you don’t research carefully, it will be easy to fall into discursive learning, not hitting the target and therefore the effectiveness will also decrease significantly. That’s why, today I will share with you as a pioneer, a guide to help you avoid making that mistake, thereby getting Step 1 as soon as possible. To find effective exam preparation materials, first we need to know: 1. WHAT IS USMLE STEP 1? Step 1 is the first part of USMLE. This is an 8-hour computer-based test, divided into 7 blocks.

THE REASON YOU LISTEN IN ENGLISH BUT DON’T UNDERSTAND

Ho Tro 21/05/2023 No Comments

REASON YOU LISTEN ENGLISH BUT DON’T UNDERSTAND When I was a child in Vietnam, studying English, my biggest fear was listening practice. I still remember every time she played the English tape for the whole class to listen to and answer questions, I felt very nervous. Later, when I went to America to talk directly with native speakers in English, even though the direct sound was clearer, I still felt like I was listening to the whispering wind because I couldn’t figure out what the other party was saying. When I had just heard the first 1 or 2 words, the other person had already said something else. So I always feel very stressed, and my mind feels very tired because it feels like I’m in a race and can’t keep up. I also feel like I’m lost in a world where I don’t know what’s going

2 DIRECTIONS TO APPLY TO AMERICAN MEDICAL REsidency

Ho Tro 13/05/2023 No Comments

2 DIRECTIONS TO APPLY TO AMERICAN MEDICAL RESIDENCY I – DIRECTION 1 Self-study for the USMLE step 1 and step 2 CK exams while studying or working in Vietnam, and register for the Steps exam in Thailand. The biggest benefit of this direction is that you can save costs, because you can live and work in Vietnam. However, the biggest obstacle to this direction is that it is difficult to gain clinical experience in the US. Clinical experience in the US is an extremely important factor for residency programs to decide whether to accept you or not. I remember during a conversation with the director of the medical residency program at my school, I asked her that when she evaluates the applications of doctors who did not graduate in the US, what do she usually look for? She answered that she wanted to make sure that the

3 THINGS DOCTORS NEED TO KNOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN MEDICAL PROFESSION

Ho Tro 13/05/2023 No Comments

THINGS DOCTORS NEED TO KNOW TO SUCCEED IN MEDICAL PROFESSION 1. THE 80/20 RULE There is a rule that I always use in my visits with patients: the 80/20 rule – 80% LISTENINGand 20% SPEAKING. Depending on the reason the patient comes in that day, this ratio may change (70-30 or 60-40), but the main thing is LISTEN MORE THAN SPEAKING. In all patient surveys in the US, the reason why many patients love their doctor is “The doctor listens” and the reason why many patients dislike a certain doctor the most is “The doctor does not listen.” Therefore, to gain the trust and love of patients, the most important skill to practice is ACTIVE LISTENING – ACTIVE LISTENING. In addition, when listening, we also understand the patient’s real problems and wishes more quickly, and from there get accurate and appropriate diagnosis and treatment. 2. MANAGING PERSONAL EMOTION As doctors,
