Dont Go Breaking My Heart Cardiology on the MCAT

Don't Go Breaking My Heart Cardiology on the MCAT MCAT Medical School Admissions Cardiology is typically a favorite topic for most students. The heart is one of the most revered organs and the majority of students are taught baseline information about the heart during their primary school education. The American Association of Medical Colleges (AAMC) also loves the cardiovascular system and often tests students’ knowledge of it in the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT). Additionally, this cardio knowledge will serve you well as a future medical student since cardiology tends to be one of the most difficult courses. This article will discuss the cardiology content on the MCAT, interdisciplinary connections for this content, as well as some tricks and tips on how to maximize cardiology questions in the Biological and Biochemical Foundations of Living Systems section on the MCAT. Tackle Basic Cardiac Anatomy First and foremost, a knowledge and understanding of basic cardiac anatomyis essential to doing well on these questions. While primary school may have taught you the four chambers of the heart, it is essential that you understand the flow of blood through the heart, systemic circulation, and the pulmonary circulation. Knowing where blood is oxygenated and deoxygenated and how it flows will serve you well in getting at least one cardiovascular question correct. It is also important to understand where valves are located, the fundamental differences between arteries and veins, and the layers found in the blood vessels. Additionally, understanding which sets of valves are associated with different heart sounds is a great way to build a foundation of your understanding for medical school.Khan Academyhas great introductory videos on the circulatory system. Integrate the Endocrine System The cardiovascular system ties very well into the endocrine system; the link between these systems is often tested on the MCAT and is vital to your foundation of knowledge in medical school. Atrial Natriuretic peptide is often examined since it has a direct link to heart activity, however the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAS) from your nephrology knowledge is also fair game since the renal system and cardiovascular system directly and indirectly impact each other. The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems and their hormones such as epinephrine, norepinephrine, and acetylcholine are high yield concepts to study and understand thoroughly. Erythropoietin, while classified under nephrology information is also an important hormone to understand since it directly impacts the number of red blood cells in the cardiovascular system and manifests itself in pathologies such as polycythemia vera and anemia. Hormones are often presented as retrieval questions or very simply tes ted since most students have limited exposure to endocrinology prior to medical school. Because of this, these are concepts that can prove to impact your MCAT score significantly. Check out MD Herofor a basic review of the endocrine hormones tested on the MCAT. Know Your Physics Another way the MCAT will examine your cardiovascular knowledge is throughlinking it to physics concepts. The cardiovascular system physiology has a strong basis in fluid mechanics and electrical circuits. This enables the AAMC to test these concepts in a way that is integrative, similar to how you will learn during your medical education. An understanding of Bernoulli’s equation and how it would apply to the arteries and veins as they change pressures and velocities throughout the body is remarkably helpful in retaining physics concepts and understanding why the circulatory system form and function change. For example, flow (Q) is equal to area (A) times velocity (v) is another commonly utilized equation when discussing cardiac physiology. This means that because the capillaries have the largest overall area in the body, they have a slower velocity allowing them to promote gas exchange in the lungs and the tissues. Whereas the larger arteries have a smaller area compared to the ca pillaries, so their velocity would be greater. Additionally, the MCAT often tests on the electrical physiology of the cardiovascular system and how it links to circuits, which will be covered in my next blog post. Grappling with these cardiology concepts early on in your medical education will serve you well as they are some of the most integrative and difficult concepts you will encounter during medical school. Spending the time to learn them now will serve to improve your MCAT score and give you a strong foundation of knowledge for your future patients. One of our professors always gently reminds us that no matter what your patient’s problem is, their cardiac health is almost always a consideration or factor in their care. Keep this in mind as motivation during your difficult days of studying; before you know it you’ll be in medical school studying these concepts at length and seeing patients with these conditions in real life.

English Word Stress and Pronunciation - Video

English Word Stress and Pronunciation - Video Ive been working with one of my students on pronunciation and I realize how difficult it can be in English. Firstly, English isnt phonetic which makes it difficult to learn from reading. You could have a really high reading level and a low speaking level. Secondly, English has different syllable stress pattern so, you could have two words: PREsent-noun (gift) or preSENT-verb (to give information to an audience).Ive been working with one of my students on pronunciation and I realize how difficult it can be in English.

The Pros and Cons of Using LinkedIn

The Pros and Cons of Using LinkedIn via Pixabay The Pros of LinkedIn Easy Networking Before LinkedIn, you would have to go to a networking event and make conversation with strangers in the hopes that you can possibly help one another one day. It would take out hours of your day getting to and enjoying the event. It also limited you to networking only with people who decided to show up and happened to live or work in the area. With LinkedIn, you can network with people from all over the world with just a click of a button. Browse through hundreds of profiles and send a quick message to make a connection that can possibly help you later down the line. Publish Your Own Content When you publish content online, it puts you ahead of any other candidate for a job you’re applying to. It helps you to create your personal brand and show potential employers that you specialize in a certain field and want to help others learn about it. LinkedIn allows you to publish articles and content that can be read by thousands of people. Who knows, maybe your next employer will come across your article and love it so much that they search for you and invite you to apply for an open position? Find Your Next Opportunity One of the services that LinkedIn provides both businesses and employees is a job search tool. Businesses can post open positions and LinkedIn will match users to jobs that they may be a good fit for. This takes time out of searching for jobs that you may qualify for and allows you to do some research about the company and employees through their profiles. It’s always a good idea to send the recruiter or hiring manager a quick message on LinkedIn letting them know that you applied to the position too. Enhance and Gain New Skills With the LinkedIn Premium account, you’ll get access to LinkedIn Learning, which consists of thousands of videos to help you learn new skills and build on the ones you already have. For example, if you want to learn everything there is to know about Microsoft Excel, there is a video course for you to take and then add that skill to your resume. This is a great way to build up your resume, especially if you feel under-qualified for the job you want. Cons of LinkedIn Spam Messages When it comes to connecting with people on LinkedIn, you may find that you get a lot of random connect requests of people you’ve never heard of or know. While it isn’t unheard of to connect with strangers, it can get annoying at times. You can also expect to get some spam messages about applying to a job or meeting with financial advisors to get them to manage your investment portfolios. Just make sure to weed through potential spam messages from the authentic ones that can actually help you out professionally. Not Everyone Sees What You Post When we post something to social media, we expect that everyone will see it pop up on their timeline in a chronological fashion. Unfortunately, with LinkedIn that is not the case. LinkedIn uses an algorithm that chooses who sees your posts and who doesn’t. This can be discouraging for those users who do like to publish content to their profile. Complicated Set-Up Every time you create a new profile on a social media platform, the set up can take a little while. You have to find a profile picture and add some basic information about yourself. However, with LinkedIn’s setup, it’s a little more complicated because you basically have to rewrite your resume into LinkedIn’s format. This can be tedious and take a little while. It will definitely be worth it in the end, though. Using LinkedIn There will always be pros and cons to a service. When it comes to LinkedIn, it will definitely help you connect with people in your industry and narrow down job listings for you. It gives you the opportunity to build a personal brand and a platform for yourself to show to potential employers. You will have to take some time to set up your profile and weed through spam messages, but the overall benefits of LinkedIn have helped so many people.

The Teach Abroad Experience Kazakhstan

The Teach Abroad Experience Kazakhstan Canadian teachers, David and Zora, began their Teach Away placement with Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools in Kazakhstan in January 2015. We caught up with them to learn how they're enjoying her teaching abroad experience in Pavlodar so far.What initially interested you in teaching abroad?My wife and I are both long-time teachers, and we both love adventure. We have taught in the UAE twice, in several parts of Canada, and now in Kazakhstan. Teaching abroad was a natural choice for us.Why did you decide on Kazakhstan and the NIS program?The NIS program came to our attention through my contact with Teach Away on another possibility. We leapt at the chance and don’t regret it!Describe the school that you teach at.The school is great, and the kids are amazing! I have taught in many different environments, and I have never met a group of students who are ALL so eager, friendly, welcoming and extremely nice. It is a genuine pleasure being in a classroom with these kids!What does the typica l workday look like?We (the international teachers) teach 18 40-minute periods in a five-day week, Monday to Friday. We also have to make up a number of hours of ‘extra-curricular’ activities. These may include English lessons with our co-teachers, tutorial sessions, clubs, or other activities. This year, my classroom time consisted of three Grade 8 classes with a Russian-speaking co-teacher, and one Grade 9 class with a Kazakh co-teacher. Class time was roughly split between us, usually in our relative languages. My co-teaching experience has been wonderful this year … classes were a real combined effort, both in planning and delivery. Between classes was time for lesson prep, personal responsibilities such as banking, medical appointments, etc. and collaboration. We are required to be in school from 8am to 5pm, with one hour for lunch between 12 and 2. There are also some required cultural events to attend on the weekends, but these are usually great fun. There are also Kaza kh and Russian language lessons once a week.What's the cost of living like in Kazakhstan?We are living in Pavlodar, and the cost of living is pretty low. We understand that it is more expensive in big cities like Astana or Almaty. Also, we have been told that the salaries are higher outside of the big cities. It doesn’t really matter to us, because we don’t like city living and LOVE Pavlodar! We have been to more cultural experiences in four months than in four years teaching in Northern Alberta. The kinds of events we’ve been to include some excellent Russian dance troupes (look up Todes), a jazz evening, concerts, the ballet, and more!Do you have any tips for teachers who are looking to apply to teach abroad or for the NIS program in particular?It is a wonderful experience! Kazakhs are a lovely, warm and welcoming people. NIS seems to be a super place to work. I highly recommend working abroad, in general, and working for NIS in particular. However, to anyone who is used to a set plan/schedule and is ‘rigid’ by nature - you really must be totally flexible, and ‘go with the flow’ to survive. Any final pieces of advice or suggestions?Yes! Where do I start… 1) You are paid essentially for an 11-month year. Paid leave days are accrued and can be applied either to Christmas or summer vacation. Remember the rest of your leave is unpaid. 2) In terms of medical and dental care, you are covered for most things if you go to an approved clinic. You will have to locate one yourself and take a translator. It has often been easier to just find a good one close by and pay ourselves as health costs are quite low compared to home. 3) You MUST keep original receipts (preferably credit card statements) and original boarding passes in order to be compensated for travel to Kazakhstan and for vacations. I had a huge problem because I paid cash, and had only my boarding passes and e-tickets, which was not considered enough evidence.Long and short, we love it here, both working and living, and although there are little idiosyncrasies to overcome, we recommend it very highly!Inspired by David and Zora's experience? Take a look at our current teaching positions with NIS.

Engaging and encouraging reluctant ESL students

Engaging and encouraging reluctant ESL students Shyness, anxiety, or a lack of self-confidence are common barriers in the classroom. No matter what age you are, speaking in front a room full of your peers can be a frightening task. Now imagine dealing with public speaking induced anxiety in a second language. Scary stuff. Students face this type of intimidation in international ESL classrooms every day. The result is reluctant students who might seem like they aren’t keen to learn. As the instructor, it’s your job to curb anxiety and shyness, and to boost confidence among your students. I’ve compiled and expanded on some effective methods that teachers can use to engage reluctant ESL students. Choose topics your students find interesting Choosing the right topics might be the most effective way to encourage participation in your classroom. A reluctant student is far more likely to engage in a lesson that aligns with his or her interests than one that is boring and unrelatable. Giving students opportunities to read, write, and speak on topics they like helps them to find the motivation they need to tackle a new language. Depending on where in the world you are teaching, types of interesting topics at your disposal will vary, but some to try might be sports, music, or even a friendly PC versus Mac conversation. Casual is key Keep your lessons casual and light. Instead of having your students read aloud to their peers, use exercises that rely on chatty, natural conversation as a tool to reduce anxiety. If students don’t feel pressured to perform, they are more likely to relax and engage. An easy way to keep things casual in your classroom is to use word-based learning games (I mentioned these in my Brilliant back-to-school ideas for your overseas classroom post as well - have a look for an example and more elaboration on word-based games in the classroom). Switch up group sizes and composition regularly Changing up the number of students and members of groups on a regular basis is an effective avenue to provide different types of learners equal opportunities to find their comfort zones. Some students may find comfort in small groups, some may react well to a specific partner, and others may decide to engage when the whole class is participating together. Some reluctant ESL students are more inclined to fuel conversation when paired with another shy student - this situation means that one needs to be the instigator. Others may find inspiration whenpaired with an extroverted, confident partner. Find prompts from beyond the textbook Remember those outdated textbooks you used in high-school French class? They were important tools to learn the rules of the language, but they weren’t always the best conversation prompts. In addition to textbooks, teachers can use material such as cue cards, role play cards and items, pictures, mixed media, or objects students bring from home. The goal here is to create more personal, relatable conversation. If it feels less like by-the-book school and more like personal communication, reluctant students are more likely to get involved. Remember as well that these don’t necessarily need to be spoken communication prompts, but may also serve as motivation for writing and reading material. Do you have any tips or tricks that help make your classroom a more comfortable environment for reluctant ESL students? Let me know in the comments below!

An Honors Chemistry Tutor Can Help You Pass The Final Test

An Honors Chemistry Tutor Can Help You Pass The Final TestIf you have high honors chemistry test scores, but find it a struggle to understand the material on your own, and don't feel ready to take a final test, an honors tutor is the answer. If you don't know much about this topic, or if you aren't confident that you can pass the test without any help, then you should think about hiring an honors tutor in the East Bay area. There are many advantages to hiring someone who specializes in this area.Bernie Sanders, one of the most successful politicians in US history, has a master's degree in chemistry. In fact, he is so knowledgeable about this subject that he could come up with ideas on his own that would have been a challenge for other people. This shows just how important these individuals are to society. To understand how you can succeed in your studies, it's very important to work with a tutor. You don't want to waste valuable time on topics that are too advanced for you.You will n eed to pay attention to every detail of your test. It's very easy to forget things because you aren't studying, so taking tests as many times as possible will ensure that you remember them all. If you don't want to fail the test, your best bet is to get help from an honors tutor in the East Bay area. They are professional enough to not only help you with the test, but to help you with the entire process, from writing the test to making sure that you get through it completely.Honors tutors are extremely qualified to help you pass your test. They may even be able to help you improve the score even more, but usually they won't. That's because they know that it's the student's responsibility to understand the material. If they don't, they will lose confidence in themselves and that will affect their performance.Now that you've found the right guidance for your test, you will need to stick with it. Whether you think you're struggling or if you just know that you're going to be taking it, you need to put aside your doubts and worry about what you really need to do. Many times, our habits of action will hold us back. They will also keep us from achieving our goal.It's not unusual for students to study for the test for several months before they actually take it. Many of them will give up on the idea of taking the test before it is due. This isn't something that you want to do. Your counselor will be able to guide you towards taking your test when you're ready, and will help you develop a plan that is going to help you succeed.This is why it's crucial that you study for the reading section of the test. The reason that a perfect score on the reading section means more than a perfect score on the other sections is because the reading section tests the knowledge of the student's comprehension of the material.

The Role of Gas Laws in Our Society

The Role of Gas Laws in Our SocietyOne of the aspects that fascinates me about the American Tradition is the idea that Gas Laws exist as a way of ensuring public safety. There are, however, two types of gas laws, namely LABELS or REGULATIONS. One of the reason's for putting regulations in place is to ensure the security of the population. The other reason is that most people who own and operate cars, trucks, buses, trains, etc. have vested interests in maintaining such laws in place.Even with these scientific and technological advancements, the most significant safety problem has been ignored. This is the question of: Is the general public being adequately protected from the risks that are associated with the accidental leakage of harmful gasses? In other words, there has been no attempt to determine whether the laws are effective. It is the job of the regulatory authorities to conduct a scientific and factual study on the system, its cost effectiveness, effectiveness and the possibl e risks that may arise from its implementation. The investigations on this question have not been conducted.What happens in the absence of gas laws is that the actual effectiveness of the gas alarm system is not tested. Rather, the state must operate it in order to prove to the community that it is a good idea. After all, this system has to pass all the scientific and technological tests conducted before deployment.If there are proper checks and balances in place, then there would be less risk of any form of leakage or rupture being the cause of a fatal accident. Again, the very purpose of the gas laws is to put safeguards in place that keep the general public safe. There is a growing feeling that the real purpose of the law is to make people comfortable with the government and their leaders and even to encourage them to behave themselves.If someone is discovered to be working near the vents, then this person should be given a reasonable period of time to evacuate the area. This wil l deter other persons who may think they can take pleasure in playing a game of hide and seek with the unfortunate victim. The fact that there are now laws is a commendable and reassuring development, but, without proper testing, we are losing our moral bearings, our intellectual development and probably our soul.A little over a year ago, I wrote an article which indicated how we had changed the definition of decency and morality in society, with the government inspectors as the judges of what was decent and what was not. Now, I fear that we have stopped caring about what the American public thinks and we have adopted a bureaucratic mindset where the Government inspectors decide what is just, moral and sensible. This will eventually create a serious degradation of the integrity of the people, not only in our government but in the entire nation.Our gas laws are not serving our society and our nation as they should. The only way that we can restore the reputation of our society and ou r nation is by bringing to bear, scientific and technological expertise in making sure that the legislation is fully implemented and that it has the intended effect. Without such expert advice, the protection of public health is threatened and therefore, we are on a course to failing at the role of a good citizen, instead of a good citizen.
