Happy Sunday friends! 🌷
If you've noticed a lot more activity from Med School Moose recently, there's a reason for that 📈.
As April wraps up and I complete my quarterly review 🔍, two of my 2026 goals were top of mind: hitting 20,000 YouTube subscribers and getting more comfortable talking directly to the camera 📸. Neither has been easy, but both have been worth it ✅.
That subscriber milestone I set for myself is an ambitious one. After all, topics like USMLE prep and interesting ECGs are very niche, and as of right now it looks like I'm behind schedule on my goal 😕. As uncomfortable as that is, working towards that number pushed me to create new content that I'm really proud of 💚.
With that in mind, this month I wanted to highlight some of my latest videos and content, kind of like a quarterly recap 😄! If you have a suggestion for content you want to see in the newsletter or on the YouTube channel, feel free to reach out at medschoolmoose@gmail.com 📨.
Videos 🎥
- USMLE Step 3 High Yield Facts has been my big focus, and I'm happy to say this series contains 8 videos now 8️⃣. More videos are on the way, but hopefully this gives those studying a solid set of videos for some rapid review 🧠.
- Since one of the big goals is to make more front-facing content, I recently posted videos talking about why I chose emergency medicine and why I did a medical education fellowship 🏥. I'm still getting used to being in front of the camera, so be patient as I work to improve things! 😅
- I'm currently working on a new USMLE Step 1 video series that I'll be releasing in the coming weeks 👀. Be sure you're subscribed on YouTube and have notifications turned on, but I'll also be sure to post a quick blurb about it in the news & updates section on my website when it drops 🗞️.
Resources & Articles 📄
- A quick reminder to check out my resources page for helpful documents and templates! My Video Checklist and USMLE Power Page are some of the latest 💪, but you can find the classics like my Pre-Residency Checklist there as well ✔️.
- Did you know that I have a whole section dedicated to book notes? Check out notes from some of my most recent reads, including Feel Good Productivity by Ali Abdaal and Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman 📚.
That's all for now! As always thanks for being a part of the Med School Moose community, and I hope to have more amazing content to share with you next month 🫎.
