PLM-CM second year-third year

This is a relatively short blog because there's not much in second and third year. This will contain the general experience in both years not on individual subjects and expectations. If you are already in PLM and needs advice on second and third year subjects, feel free to ask and I'll see if I could help.

Second year.

Your life in second year will be study, exam, sleep cycle.
Almost everyday you'll have examinations and just like in first year, you'll feel like you don't have time anymore especially that you have saturday class. BUT IN REALITY, you still have lots of time. Trust me. You have lots. You'll realize in third year eventually if you still don't feel like it.

So, the secret in second year is studying wisely. Listen to lectures so studying would be like a recap of your lecture. Focus on the lecture because that is what is important but still read and study your book. I know there are transes but reading the book is a huge difference. To those who lost scholarship in first year, fret not! It's easy to be reinstated in second year.

Second year guide:
* Study wisely
* Ace the exams
* Enjoy your life

Third year.

Surgical Pathology will consume your time.
There will be lots of reporting and group works so cooperation and time management are the keys. Also, be an efficient member. Do not be a burden to your groupmates. If you're having difficulty, tell your groupmates, ask for help. If there are problems, address them as early as possible to avoid worse conflicts. Study as much as you can during this year because you won't have time to study during clerkship.

*Cooperation and time management are the keys
* study as much as you can
