@petermcginnes: I'm looking for ways to trick my brain into thinking it's interested in this stuff. I was able to convince myself to be interested in cell bio but that feels a lot more relevant than this stuff 😭 #premed #physics #chemistry #biology #prerequisites
read how MRIs operate. It might change your opinion of physics!

Go to office hours, figure out what’s gonna be on the test. Get to know the teacher, they’ll bump your grade if they know you and you’re on the fence.

I was a chemistry major and had to take 1 year of physics and 1 year of calculus. I HATED IT! You just have to suffer through it.

You can withdraw if it hasn't been to much time. Won't affect your grades or shouldn't. 👍

you could look into applications of biomedical engineering such as medical devices etc

what about if you increase whit silver the conductivity of the brain perhaps you could increase IQ or treat traumas making it more flexible or what about an accident where you can use weigth or gravity to connect neurons, perhaps shape and amount shape the way we thinl

Love it, Peter! 😁 Yeah, like you did before, positive reframing, young man! I always told my son to find something interesting in what he was learning, even when he was taking classes for which he had very little interest. Find some piece of relevance in it to your life or to the things/subjects that you are interested in. Try to make it fun! 🤜🤛

Pretend you have to explain it to a 10 year old. That exercise will make it easier and have motivate some creativity in you 👑

I had a class that was super boring (cultural anthropology, at Yale, in 1990) but I couldn’t get out of it. My strategy was to pretend it was just Boredom Training. The goal of passing the class was to prove to myself that if necessary I could withstand any amount of boredom 🤣

My recommendation is to connect the class to the MCAT. Try taking MCAT practice questions on the subject you’re are studying.

You could look into how EM is used in medicine, personally I think it’s important to so many disciplines in medicine

from a neuroscience perspective, E&M is very important for computational neuro. the ion channels and their gates along with ion flow are purely math and physics when modeled

Hahaha, I said the same thing about trig in high school. The best part I have not needed it in the last 50 years, so I guess I was right!😂

Maybe like creating some fun quizlets OR creating some sort of playlist with motivating music? I usually love making quizlets for hard classes that I do not enjoy and then utilizing their study resources while listening to some fun music. This could be a start?

Do you have any tips for Calc 1 and Bio: Basic Life mechanisms, I only took precalc in HS and the imposter syndrome couldn’t feel more heavy 😓
