For those doing this kind of work, what rates are you charging? I recently increased my rates to 400/800/1000 per hour for chart review / deposition / trial and had an attorney accept without question. I am wondering what the maximum they will accept is based on your experience.

How do you improve in CARS? What are some regular things to do for regular practice? What helped you improve the most?

Hi everyone, I need some advice. I started studying for the MCAT a few weeks ago. I started with the Kaplan books but realized they were taking too long. I moved onto Professor Eman but I still get tripped up on the little things or things I don't remember. By the time I clear up the information I don't 100% grasp, I add so much time. I am someone who likes to learn things extremely in detail so I am struggling taking less than a few hours. I also am doing Anki each day but if I do happen... Read more

Thought I would start this new thread for WAMC even though still early for upcoming match cycle. I am an AMG in between MS3 and MS4, on research year. I had originally wanted to do derm, but after this year of research, decided that I am more interested in internal medicine. I would like to match into a top 30 residency (according to doximity rankings, whatever that means, but you have to have some ranking system right?). WAMC? Here are my stats: Med school rank: top 25 school USMLE Step... Read more

Hey everyone, Doing my externships lately has been a huge eye-opener. I've noticed a pretty big gap between how certain OMFS programs are viewed online versus how attendings and residents talk about them behind closed doors. I've heard casual comments writing off some traditionally "top-tier" or very competitive programs for having malignant cultures or major training gaps. It kind of shocked me. Even while externing, you realize you're still an outsider and a lot of the real day-to-day... Read more

Hi All, I am an oncology attending primarily seeing lung, head and neck, and GI cases. Is there a place on StudentDoc to discuss clinical cases with other oncology attendings? I am wondering, for metastatic colon cancer cases, do many omit the 5FU bolus? I have seen some colleagues do this and am curious about the evidence. Many thanks for any suggestions.
