Welcome to Orientation Week as a third-year medical student 🤍
In this chatty vlog, I’m sharing what orientation really looks like at the start of M3 — from learning how to place IVs and adjusting to clinical expectations, to navigating life after the hospital day ends.
This week is less about perfection and more about transition: finding my rhythm, staying organized, and balancing school, research, and real life once the white coat comes off. If you’re curious about the start of clinical years, or what a realistic med student day looks like beyond lectures, this one’s for you.
