Good. About time we stop fear mongering. Might cut down on unnecessary skin checks too and decrease wait times. @AdeAdamson@AADmember#skincancer

@olsonplanner The common addage WAS, you need 2 months for step 1, 2 weeks for step 2, and 2 pencils for step 3. People use to study hard for step 1 because the score mattered on what specialty you went into. Now, the score has changed to pass/fail making it less discerning, unless you fail.
@olsonplanner Most US MD programs can pass Step 1 w/ min external prep. Like most high achieving ppl, you're going to get external sources to ENSURE you can pass step 1. When I took it and got real grades, the pass rate was quite high, 95%
Now the pass rate is 90%.

Focus will be on excellence in clinical care, clinical trials integration, interdisciplinary cross training, specialty clinic focused (patch testing, melanoma, derm-rheum, laser). No mandatory call or weekends.
No bias here, but Eczema Expo is hands down the best conference every year for patients and caregivers. Packed with the latest in eczema and eczema therapies, it’s a can’t miss event. Meet old friends, make new friends! See you in Denver!

@olsonplanner If you're savvy and do some consulting/speaking/patent/start a product line on the side, that number will balloon. That's more money to invest and grow.
@olsonplanner Is med school expensive? Yes. But it's an investment in your future.
If you graduate medical school at 30 (usu younger), finish res at 35, and work for 30 years @ 250,000/year, your lifetime earning is $7.5 million. Risk of losing a job is low. Value to society is high.
We are looking for a social media content creator to help with our professional clinical trials unit social media account. I'd like to know if anyone has recommendations for folks they've worked with before.
