I don’t think I’m going to make it

I’m a few months into PA school and honestly I just don’t feel smart enough to be here. I look around at my classmates and it feels like everyone else understands things faster, retains information better, and just naturally “gets it.” Meanwhile I constantly feel behind and overwhelmed.

My grades are always in the lowest quartile. My faculty is concerned, I am concerned. Motivation isn’t an issue, so is it possible that my intelligence level is simply not high enough?

I’ve been that way all throughout my life when it comes to school. Middle school up until now, I have never been the smart person in the class. I have always been notably less intelligent than my peers.

What’s really getting to me is that I want to be the person who walks into an exam knowing they’re probably going to pass. Right now every exam feels like survival mode. I can study for hours and still feel like I know nothing compared to everyone else.

It’s hard not to wonder if some people are just naturally smarter and better built for this. I want to become someone who feels competent and confident academically, but right now I honestly have no idea how to get there. Is it even possible?

I know every program an attrition rate, but I’m still so scared of failing out. At what point will the fear of filling out go away? I’ve been in the program for 5 months and I’m barely hanging on.

Sorry for this word vomit rant. I’m just stuck

Cat allergies?

Hi everyone. I just got a one year-old Maine coon. Everything has been great but for the last few days I noticed that he’s been licking more and more every day and he seems to be itchy. I was wondering if cats get seasonal allergies even though he’s an indoor cat? I have a vet appointment coming up to address this issue but was wondering if anybody had any input as to what may be causing this? I’m a little concerned.

Feed suggestions Maine coon

Hello. I just adopted a one year-old Maine coon. He is currently around 12 1/2 pounds. The old owner told me she would allow him to graze if purina complete essentials kitten.

I’m not sure how much she would allow him to Grace. How many cups a day? She also did not feed him any wet food, and I want to incorporate this into his diet. So how much is it recommended I feed him of wet and dry food using the Purina?

And I plan on switching him to the complete essentials adult here shortly. How much is recommended to feed him then?

How to make Anki work for me

I’m in PA school and every single person I’ve spoken to in PA school or med school has told me Anki is a saving grace. For whatever reason it doesn’t stick for me. I’ll go through a deck and it sticks with me then, but the next day i just can’t recall anything I learned.

It’s almost like I memorize what the card looks like and I’m able to answer it then, but I can’t recall what I’ve learned when I’m trying to apply it to practice questions.

Does this mean Anki just isn’t for me? Or is there something that I can modify about this to help me benefit from it?

Voice memo said kept hours later

I sent a voice memo to a friend. They opened it earlier this morning so it disappeared from the thread and now later this evening it says kept? This doesn’t make sense
