Welcome to StudySavyMD: Your Go-To Hub for Medical Student Success
Being a medical student is no easy task. Between juggling coursework, clinical placements, and a semblance of a personal life, it often feels like there aren’t enough hours in the day. I get it - I’m living it too. That’s why I created StudySavyMD, a space dedicated to empowering healthcare students like you to stay organised, motivated, and in control of your studies.
Through this blog, I’ll share actionable tips, tools, and inspiration I collected throughout my med school life to help you manage your academic journey with confidence. Whether you’re here for study advice, digital planning tips, or a dose of motivation, you’re in the right place.
The Story Behind StudySavyMD
My name is Tabea, and I’m a current MBBS student at Barts and The London. I’ve faced the overwhelming demands of medical school, which cannot be compared to that of my previous degree in research. During my first years, I struggled to balance everything - lectures, revision, ward rounds, and personal responsibilities. I realised that to truly thrive, I needed a better way to organise my time and tasks.
Through trial and error, I found that strategic planning and the right tools made all the difference. Having gone through hardships during my first year made studying and dealing with the overwhelming workload even harder and upon talking to my peers who seemed to struggle with the same issues, I realised that we are all in the same boat. I wanted to share what I’d learned with others, creating resources specifically tailored to the unique needs of healthcare students. And so, StudySavyMD was born - a supportive platform where organisation meets empowerment.
