UMAT Section 2 Prep Discussion (No Prep Courses!)

okay this is probably more of a girl-type of book, but any book by jodi picoult is AWESOME. theyre all about understanding two sides of a case, the people's emotions behind it, etc.
REALLY good books. and unfortuantely really long reserve lists.

Unfortunately you cannot improve your ability to 'understand people' overnight by reading a book or watching a movie
It would be nice though

yea, but reading enough of them over time gets you used to doing that kind of thing... hopefully.

I think just doing the questions and looking where u go wrong is enough...

Heres a tip when there is an option saying discuss some bs with the patient its usually right lol thats what im finding

i was talking to a UWS med student and they said that reading autobios helps. i started reading never day die.... good book

I think that only works if u continually question what the author is thinking :S. And how will you know if what you are thinking is right or wrong :S. But i think that reading lots to increase ur speed and concentration is good...

watch some korean drama. every ep is like 50 mins of ppl talking about their feelings
