Social Media For Medical Professionals (And Medical Practices)

Posted on June 29, 2024July 23, 2024

Social media for medical professionals and practices is a great boon. In many countries, including India, doctors cannot advertise themselves freely. Even if the law should allow it, people would frown on the practice.

But the social media channels are fertile ground for healthcare providers to build their brands and practices through indirect means.

As a medical consultant, you can enhance your thought leadership through your opinion, build your reach through the quality of content you put out, and interact with other specialists in whose company you can shine.

There are many benefits for the medical fraternity in using social media. But there are some areas to be extremely careful about, too.

This article hopes to keep you, the healthcare practitioner, aware of the best ways to use social media to great advantage. All areas of your career should win – your medical practice, your professional brand, your patients, and your industry as a whole.

Social channels are great to work with in situations like these below:

Gaining more citizen engagement and participation in health concerns

Doctors, individually and as a group, can use social media to raise public awareness about health and fitness in general – or about certain diseases in particular. They can answer common FAQs from patients and educate people by sharing valuable content.

Monitoring specific healthcare or cause campaigns at certain peak periods

There are times of the year when hospitals may lead disease-specific or cause-specific campaigns, and a lot of public health monitoring on that topic needs to take place. Social media can help combat misinformation and encourage people’s participation. In cases when campaigns are about a medical crisis (like the recent COVID-19 pandemic), they can help in crisis communication.

Professional networking is among the significant benefits of social media

There is so much evolution in medical technology that doctors can often best keep pace by engaging with other doctors. Social media can cut short professional upskilling time. There could also be times when compliances may change, or special research recruitment drives may be needed when the use of social media can be indispensable.

Patient care is the most obvious and best use of social media

Here, it is not about individual patients and their health issues but about collective education on the support, facilities, education, and public health programs that patients as groups can avail of.

The ideas that work best are listed here …

Set some clear goals for your social media usage as a health professional

Are you planning to use social media to increase awareness of your brand and your expertise? Are you hoping to convey your ideas to others in your industry so that you can all effectively lobby for a worthwhile cause? Are you interested in networking across medical specialisations with experts in diverse fields to enlarge your knowledge base? If you know your goals, you can use social media to gain traction on those targets.

Use the most professional online tone of voice and aim to be authentic

The medical profession thrives on public trust. The authenticity of your tone of voice is at the base of such public confidence in you. Know your audience. Take time to listen to their communities on social media. Have a clear message and deliver it with authority. Cover both the pros and cons of any topic. Be unbiased, factual, honest, and sincere.

Limit your own screen time if you’re a very busy doctor and your family needs you

Nothing can be worse for families of medicare consultants if they have to put up with their irregular working hours and also their social media preoccupations. You are a doctor, and you should be the one to tell other people when enough screen time is enough.

These are some of the big pitfalls to steer clear of …

Don’t offer medical advice to anybody online, not even a standard prescription

As a trained doctor, you have already been taught never to provide any casual medical remedies without looking into the details of any case. It’s the same rule that applies to conversations on social media. If someone asks, “Can we take two paracetamol tablets when a migraine starts?” your answer should be: “Please consult your doctor.”

Be careful when posting about patients – maintain doctor-patient confidentiality

Don’t ever be tempted to allude to a case study if it involves an actual case you have been involved with. It’s far easier to lose trust online than build trust. In extreme cases, doctors have even lost their licenses to practice after getting careless with their social postings. So, be very careful.

Avoid conflicts of interest with products or brands that may later say you endorsed them

Never take the names of any brands or products in your social posts or interactions. You never know when a product may misuse your small mistake of mentioning a brand in passing as a medical endorsement in the public domain. For example, don’t say: “I got on my XYZ Treadmill this morning, and guess what …” Next thing you know, people will believe you are pushing that brand.

Sermo

This site is amongst the most popular for healthcare providers online. Its focus is to connect verified and credentialed physicians from around 150 countries worldwide. It even has a “virtual doctors lounge” that is very popular.

Doximity

This site targets U.S. based physicians in all specialty areas, with over 70% of all U.S. doctors signed up for membership. But its blog is sought after by other doctors from across the world who want to know the latest from the U.S.

Figure1

This resource allows healthcare providers from all over the world to share anonymous images of an ailment, such as x-rays, and compare them to other similar images available on the site. This really helps doctors in remote locations who may be treating patients with rare disorders for which they have no historical data to fall back on. This explains the site’s immense popularity.

Curofy

This is a healthcare news and updates app. It also allows access to journals, case studies, medical guidelines, and video interviews with eminent physicians. There is even a separate sub-section called Curofy MCQ for medical students.

Docplexus

This is the largest network of healthcare professionals in India, with 2.5 lakh members. It enables peer-to-peer discussions, has an informative blog, and sends regular press releases to healthcare professionals.

PlexusMD

This is a free app providing access to medical news and career opportunities. It collates news, information, and announcements from 500+ renowned medical sources like Medscape, WebMD, Harvard Medical School, etc.

DailyRounds

This app is a social networking site, a medical journal keeper, and a drugs and case database, all rolled into one. It offers substantial coverage of international and national medical events.

DocTutorials is present on several social channels, helping students absorb their curricula in a more engaged and interactive way. It also uses social media to keep students, alumni, and the larger medical community at pace with the latest in medical science.

Students respond to their Live sessions, participate in quizzes, interact with IBQs and MCQs, and view faculty lectures and topical discussions on YouTube. These DocTutorials social handles are really worth a visit:

In summary …

There are no two opinions about it. If used with care and professional ethics, social media can be a very useful communication tool for medical professionals and practices.

To medical students, especially, social media sites and apps can be great places to get immersed in the culture of top-notch medical traditions. If you’re a medical student, leverage social media – and get inspired to reach for those higher degrees of success.

Medical Teaching Methods Get A Boost Via DocTutorials App V 2.023

Posted on June 13, 2024July 23, 2024

Medical college entrance exams are tough. Students get anxious even thinking about attempting them. They have to not only pass these stiff entrance exams but do so with flying colours. Those high scores and ranks are what can get them into the colleges of their choice to study the subjects they want to.

That is why students often feel the need to enroll with top-grade coaching institutes that prepare them with a solid foundation in medicine. The goal of these coaching institutes is to help students sail through these medical entrance tests with very high grades.

With the growth of coaching institutes, teaching methods for medical students have also undergone a sea change. Several new strategies, techniques, and processes are now used to make pre-college medical education more well-rounded for students.

DocTutorials (one of India’s premier medical entrance coaching institutes) has developed a 360-degree approach, using some of the latest medical education methods, to train its students for tough medical entrance exams (like NEET PG, NEET SS, FMGE, INICET, and INISS).

Let’s see what the best medical education programmes could ideally contain and what DocTutorials includes in its curricula.

At the macro level, medical teaching has become more varied in focus

Traditionally, medical education was taught using an approach that first exposed students to theoretical learning. Students listened to lectures by instructors or did lab-based practice – but it was all essentially a one-way approach from teacher to student.

This was usually followed by placing students in clinical practices (as interns) to give them a hands-on feel of actual patients with real problems to get a more balanced understanding.

According to Ausoma.org, we have several other refinements to teaching approaches today. They aim to teach students some mental and behavioural skills beyond just pure medical knowledge. Let’s review some that are generally in use and other additions that are specific to DocTutorials.

4 Medical Teaching Evolutions Shaping Medical Education at Large

1. Problem-based instruction

In problem-based teaching, the instructor usually gives students a medical problem to mull over before live classes occur. Students are encouraged to apply autonomous thinking around the complexities of the problem and see if they can find solutions either from what they already know or through independent research. Groups of students may also be encouraged to collaborate to come up with solutions before the teaching class.

Problem-focused instruction allows students to get interested in the topic sufficiently so they can get the most out of the following teaching and lectures. In this method, students are guided to develop their interpersonal skills as well as problem-solving skills.

2. Case-based instruction

In case-based teaching, the faculty may give students a specific case of some complexity, where there could be many ways to treat the patient. Students must learn how to analyse the variables and prioritise their solutions. This method aims to get students to appreciate that there could be more than one solution that works every time.

With any solution, a doctor has to consider the various advantages and tradeoffs to make an optimal choice. This teaching method helps grasp a case entirely but ultimately make a difficult choice – or a series of choices – when there are no single clear answers.

3. Inquiry-based instruction

In inquiry-based instruction, students can use their mental resources to raise the correct queries when faced with a medical situation. They have to acquire the ability to use the knowledge they have gained to know what investigation a medical scenario may require for them to be able to diagnose correctly.

The inquiry-based instruction approach develops student’s proficiency in knowing what investigative routes are available and what data they can glean from them to improve their interpretative skills. This teaching method also calls for students to stay apace with scientific or medical innovations so that their exploration options will be more comprehensive. (Yale School of Medicine has an exclusively dedicated Investigative Program PhD course – that’s how important the subject has become.)

4. Evidence-based instruction

Evidence-based instruction is one of the new approaches in medical education, where students are urged to read a lot of reputed medical journals and expert-reviewed literature (like The Lancet) – and be aware of precedents in medical practices, experiments, and cases handled successfully worldwide.

When students combine what they are taught as the foundation of medicine with what they read as evidence from across the world that supports or discards existing theories, they are on a journey of continuous learning. Tomorrow’s doctors need to cultivate this habit of constant self-enhancement because medicine is an ever-evolving and incrementing field.

9 medical teaching methodologies shaping medical education at DocTutorials

1. Multi-discipline-based instruction

DocTutorials has developed its core curricula via a Multi-Disciplinary Approach (MDA) to train its students. The idea DocTutorials believes in is this: education for medicine should have diverse components to it for a comprehensive subject understanding.

DocTutorial’s new upgraded coaching app, Version 2.023, is geared towards enhancing student’s information absorption and memorising capabilities, making them ready for the Year 2023. This V 2.023 app has enriched, immersive, and multi-disciplinary content to make it both educative and experiential.

2. Intra-faculty-discussions-based instruction

Doc Tutorials has an interesting teaching format called Integrated MCQ Discussion Videos (IMDVs). The new app features up to 70+ such IMDVs. Students can watch debates between renowned faculty members, who discuss vital topics (including New Pattern MCQs) threadbare and explore all the nuances. These IMDVs can be enlightening for students.

3. System-based instruction

One of DocTutorial’s best teaching methods is via System Based Integrated Test Series (SBITs). Students are taught to appreciate that the human body has various systems that operate in tandem, and every system needs to be mastered in depth. This method of instruction offers both a granular and a holistic grasp for students.

4. Animated-video-based instruction

DocTutorials has a collection of Video Lectures with hours of content covering a full range of 19 subjects. Advanced 2D/3D animations in these technologically superior videos offer students an experiential feel of critical topics. Students get to see how theoretical knowledge manifests as practical reality.

5. Live-teaching-based instruction

Live Sessions at DocTutorials help transfer valuable knowledge from instructors to students. These live classes are great opportunities for students to clear their doubts and queries and learn how to prepare for the Quick Revision Programmes (QRPs).

6. Test-series-based instruction

Frequent and intensive testing is one of DocTutorial’s tenets of teaching. The Test Series at DocTutorials generally includes a packed calendar of subject tests, revision tests, grand tests, and elite tests. Tests have two advantages for students. One, they help students assess their subject thoroughness regularly. Two, they get rid of any exam-related tensions among students.

7. Question-format-based instruction

The new QBank 2nd Edition from DocTutorials is a vast library – an invaluable resource – of past question papers and New Pattern additions. In its freshly reconfigured edition, it has Image Based Questions (IBQs) and 17000+ Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs).

8. Frequent-rehearsal-based instruction

Rehearsals are an intrinsic part of the syllabus planning at DocTutorials and help with meticulous preparation. Rigorous and regular Test & Discussion (T&D) sessions are held to sharpen student’s focus and skills constantly. Faculty members expose students to potential exam questions (supported by images and videos).

9. Self-assessment-based instruction

The Leaderboard at DocTutorials is a ranking table that shows students the ongoing and up-to-date results of quizzes and tests they have participated in. In this way, they can know how ready they are in their exam preparation and which areas of study they need to fortify.

In summary

DocTutorial’s coaching app V 2.023 for NEET PG students encapsulates some of the most potent medical teaching methods. Aspirants are encouraged to download, sign up, and subscribe to the app to take full advantage of its cutting-edge medical education methods. The future is already here.

NEET PG Preparation – 5 Best Tips To Achieve Your Dream

NEET PG Preparation is not a cakewalk and it requires dedication, strategy, and effective study techniques. Here are 5 top tips to help you prepare effectively for the NEET PG exam.

Realistic Study Schedule

A study schedule with proper time management is crucial for NEET PG preparation. You should allocate your time for each subject and adhere to a well-planned study schedule. Prioritize the topics based on their weightage in the exam.

Don’t forget to take regular breaks as it can help you maintain focus. Incorporate revision sessions into your study schedule. Revision sessions can help you recall all the important topics easily.

It is important to form a strong foundation for your core clinical skills. For this, we would suggest finishing all pre- and para-clinical subjects first and then moving to study for major clinical subjects followed by the minor ones. This chronology will instill confidence in you and ensure that you are ready for all types of scenarios.

Choose the Right Study Materials and Resources

Make sure your study materials and resources cover the entire NEET PG syllabus.

In today’s digital world, multiple online resources are available for NEET PG preparation. So, take the leverage of NEET PG online coaching platforms like DocTutorials and master your exams.

Enhance your NEET PG preparation by referring to standard medical textbooks, online lectures, recorded and live video sessions, question banks, and study guides from trusted and reliable sources. Make concise notes while studying for easy revision.

Practice NEET PG Previous Year Question Papers [PYQ]

One of the integral parts of NEET PG preparation is practicing the previous year’s question papers. By doing so, it can help you familiarize yourself with the NEET PG exam pattern, type of questions, and time constraints. Also, you can gauge your exam readiness, identify your weak areas, and strategize your approach for the actual NEET PG exam.

Analyzing the question and understanding the concepts behind each question can enhance your problem-solving skills and improve your overall NEET PG preparation.

Focus on Conceptual Clarity

One of the abilities that the NEET PG exam can assess is your ability to apply theoretical knowledge to clinical scenarios. For the same, you should focus on developing a strong conceptual understanding of key topics.

It is very essential for you to grasp fundamental concepts thoroughly and understand their practical implications. Having clear conceptual clarity can enhance your critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and clinical decision-making skills, which are essential for success in the NEET PG exam and beyond.

Revision and Regular Self-Assessment

During the exam, you should be able to remember the topics and information that you prepared. So, retaining information is very crucial. To memorize key concepts and facts, you should incorporate a regular revision session in your study schedule.

With regular self-assessment tests like grand tests, elite tests, and quizzes, you can assess your progress and gauge your preparation level. Grand tests can help you to embrace the real-time exam atmosphere and boost your confidence.

Preparing for the NEET PG exam requires a focused mind. So, remember to stay focused and maintain a positive attitude. Take care of your physical and mental well-being throughout your NEET PG preparation.

Coaching In Medical Education Enhanced By DocTutorial’s App V 2.023

Posted on June 12, 2024July 23, 2024

Students who enroll with medical entrance exam coaching centers often evaluate their choice of institutes based on two factors. They look into the coaching institute’s curriculum and past success. Equally, they look at their own goals and expectations. Students expect that the role of any coaching institute is to help them get top ranks and scores to get the medical seats of choice at top colleges.

In all this evaluation, many students need to see if the medical education coaching methods of the institutes they choose will suit them. Various centers adopt differing training patterns to give their audiences a clear advantage.

DocTutorials (one of India’s premier online medical entrance exam coaching institutes) prepares its students for tough exams like the NEET PG, NEET SS, FMGE, INICET, and INISS. The faculty members at DocTutorials are top-notch – but not just because they are great doctors and teachers. They are great at teaching students to become confident and continuous learners, even after passing their degrees and becoming full-fledged doctors.

Let’s review how the best coaching in medical education can help students – and then look at DocTutorial’s programs that foster the right coaching approach to help students immensely.

What coaching can do for a student – an example we can all understand

According to a medical paper titled “A definition for coaching in medical education” by Jeffrey Landreville et al, in the National Library of Medicine, the example of Roger Federer, the tennis ace, is quoted as very close to what medical coaching must aspire to do for every student.

“As the number 1 ranked tennis player for a record 310 weeks, Roger Federer represents one of the most successful professional athletes of our time. While he undoubtedly possesses a remarkable amount of self-motivation, dedication, and athleticism, there is another factor to consider: he has a coach. In fact, he has a team of coaches who work on every aspect of his game with a common goal of performance enhancement. In a recent tribute to his coaches on social media, Federer wrote: ‘Could never have been the oldest #1 without my team. Thank you to everyone who has helped me along the way.'”

The first tenet of coaching, as DocTutorials also sees it, is that students face such a fiercely competitive environment that they need coaching to raise them to succeed beyond being good to being great.

The optimal mix between coaching, advising, and mentoring – and how it can make a difference

According to the book “Coaching in Medical Education”, authored by Maya M. Hammoud et al, part of the American Medical Association’s MedEd Innovation Series, when medical students are asked what they value most about their faculty, three types of answers usually emanate.

One, they seem to appreciate the quality of teaching that the faculty imparts on pure medical knowledge. They need to feel their teachers and instructors are very qualified people, worthy of industry respect, who know their subjects inside out.

Two, students seem to appreciate it a lot when their teachers also play the role of advisers. When advisers are assigned to aspirants, they first get an experience in the learner’s area of need – and then provide customized oversight, advice, answers, and guidance to the student, according to the need.

Three, students like looking up to their faculty members as mentors and role models who have achieved advanced academic renown and experience. Yet, students also like to feel comfortable (and not over-awed) in a two-way dialogue with their mentors. Being able to share joys and challenges with mentors, and getting encouragement from them, makes students feel empowered.

At DocTutorials, the faculty teams embody the best of teaching, advising, and mentoring.

4 benefits that any medical coaching must have – that you get at DocTutorials

According to John A Spencer in the paper titled “Learner centred approaches in medical education”, published in the British Medical Journal, any medical coaching must have four clear goals that are all student-centric. DocTutorials, too, follows this principle.

Coaching must provide students with a space for progressive improvement in academic, personal, and professional performance.
Coaching must ensure student well-being, including mental clarity and balance, emotional confidence, psychological resilience, and physical adaptability.
Coaching must ensure that teacher guidance is as essential as autonomous learning. Both systems of coaching must be concurrent and synergistic.
Coaching must encourage students to establish continuous reflection, goal-setting, and lifelong learning habits. More than any other profession, the medical field requires people to be eternal students with a high degree of passion for serving society and saving precious lives in the best and most up-to-date ways possible.

Upgradation via the new DocTutorial’s coaching app V 2.023 – for the year 2023

DocTutorials has always believed in a Multi-Disciplinary Approach (MDA) to training its students. This approach envisages a well-rounded coverage of all medical knowledge (taught via diverse formats of learning like text, lectures, videos, quizzes, tests and discussions). The approach also focuses on learning practices that modern-day doctors need.

DocTutorial’s new upgraded coaching app, Version 2.023, is further geared toward increasing information absorption and memorising capabilities. This V 2.023 app has a lot of enriched, immersive, and experiential content.

The many coaching methods used by DocTutorial’s experts and the curriculum include these:

Faculty-experience benefits of the curriculum and app

1. Integrated MCQ Discussion Videos (IMDVs) – learning from insightful debates

In these IMDVs, students can watch deliberations between faculty members who discuss vital topics (including New Pattern MCQs). These IMDVs can enlighten students on topic nuances they may otherwise miss.

2. Video Lectures – gaining from rich expertise

There are hours of video content covering a full range of 19 subjects. These include 2D/3D animations to enhance experiential understanding. They also help retain in memory all that is taught.

3. Live Sessions – getting first-hand knowledge

Live classes are great opportunities for students to interact closely with faculty members to clear their doubts and queries. They can also take guidance on preparations for the Quick Revision Programmes (QRPs).

4. System Based Integrated Test Series (SBITs) – acquiring a deeper understanding

Students are taught about the human body via its various systems. This enables students to grasp the importance of each system – and further, granular learning facilitates greater comprehension.

5. Test & Discussion (T&D) sessions – leveraging immense experience

These are held to sharpen student’s grasping skills. Faculty members expose students to potential exam questions (supported by images and videos).

Autonomous learning benefits of the curriculum and app

1. Test Series – practicing constantly, preparing diligently

There is a packed calendar of subject, revision, grand, and elite tests. Doing tests with regular frequency helps both in memorising topics and losing any fear of exams.

2. QBank 2nd Edition – asking more, absorbing more

The QBank 2nd Edition aggregates past question papers and New Pattern additions. It has Image Based Questions (IBQs) and 17000+ Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs).

3. Leaderboard – raising the bar, boosting the effort

This serves as an up-to-date ranking table showing students their scores across quizzes and tests. Students can assess their performance against peers and know the areas of study on which they need to focus more.

In summary

DocTutorial’s coaching app V 2.023 for NEET PG students has all the tools and techniques for coaching in medical education that students can leverage. Just download, sign up, and subscribe to the app to get a firm foundation and expert guidance for success. The future is already here.

Learning Strategies For Medical Students – Enhanced By DocTutorials App V 2.023

Posted on June 12, 2024July 23, 2024

One of the most challenging aspects of being a medical student is having to deal with a tremendous amount of study material to remember, theoretically and practically. The syllabus of any medical exam is vast, and medical science is proliferating too. Keeping everything learnt in memory feels next to impossible.

Even so, we get well-educated doctors, year after year, totally competent in all they have studied. How do they retain all the knowledge they have acquired? How do they recall everything they need to know when diagnosing a patient for an illness? How do they have space in their minds for more information about new medical inventions and discoveries?

It all comes down to having some specific learning methods for medical study. Psychologists have done quite a bit of research on practices that students in the medical field can use to absorb information better.

Some medical curricula, like those taught by DocTutorials (one of Indias premier online medical entrance exam coaching institutes), are cleverly structured to guide students in distinctly productive ways.

Let’s examine first what psychologists say about knowledge acquisition approaches for students of medical courses – and then examine the curricula at DocTutorials to see how well it is planned.

3 problems medical learners face when mastering large amounts of information

According to Rishi Desai and Shiv Gaglani, in their paper “How To Study In Medical School”, published by MSD Manual, they say, “The volume of information that you need to take in and memorise in medical school is much greater than in college. Some students compare the flow of information coming at them to drinking out of a fire hose.”

They refer to the three biggest hurdles students face in medical courses and suggest how to overcome these:

Rapid forgetting is the first hurdle. The volume of what medical qualification aspirants must know is enormous. It’s easy for students minds to forget as a self-preservation response. The best strategies to combat this are spaced repetition (re-studying material repeatedly at regular periodic intervals) and interleaved practice (testing on memorised materials in a mixed-up fashion).

Passive studying is the second hurdle. It’s what tired minds do when they must imbibe something new or extra to what they have already gleaned. Students may be tempted to read from their textbooks without engaging the mind to absorb the material. By far, testing frequently is believed to be the best way to shake students minds out of disengagement.

Reversion to past behaviours is the third hurdle. It occurs when students in medical disciplines use the same information retention techniques that helped them in earlier education. Psychologists believe there has to be a new mindset born in those studying for medical degrees. If they sense the importance of their future professions as socially-valuable doctors, it will trigger their motivation to assimilate information beyond ordinary levels.

5 simple memory-building techniques medical students will find invaluable

In an article by Windsor.edu titled “5 Science-Backed Learning Strategies for Medical Students”, they have tips for improving study schedules and patterns.

1. Splitting study material into manageable chunks or lots

Students may vary in how much they can absorb in a given study session. So, when breaking up large amounts of study material into smaller manageable chunks, they have to see their individual memory thresholds. This type of study is the opposite of large volumes of overnight cramming before tests.

2. Taking adequate breaks between any two study sessions

Breaks refresh minds – and if two different study sessions on two different subjects are scheduled, breaks will help ease minds out of the first subject and slide into the next one. Staying active during breaks – like taking walks, stretching muscles or doing other chores – can refresh minds faster.

3. Increasing blood to the brain via safe aerobic workouts

Aerobic exercises can have both long- and short-term effects on mind-building ability. They can improve cognition and memory by boosting blood flow to the brain. With their brains getting a good supply of oxygen and vital nutrients, students can energize their sympathetic nervous systems, which are responsible for increased memory.

4. Learning to overcome the Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve

The Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve is a well-known memory model in psychology. Its premise is that information will slip out of memory over time – unless action is taken to keep it there. Researchers say humans will forget approximately 50% of any new information within one hour. So, revising lectures daily is not just a nice thing to do; it’s imperative.

5. Studying before night sleep works wonders for memory

It’s age-old wisdom that the last thoughts gathered before a night’s sleep get deeply embedded into the brain. Scientific research now validates this ancient idea. Also, the quality of sleep at night can help in the process. Deep undisturbed sleep can enhance memory even better.

The upgraded DocTutorials coaching app Version 2.023 enhances ease of study

Following the best practices in medical teaching, DocTutorials has developed its Multi-Disciplinary Approach (MDA) to train its students for tough medical entrance exams like NEET PG, NEET SS, FMGE, INICET and INISS.

The principle that DocTutorials adopts is that education for medical proficiency should be structured for ease of memorising and retention and should have diverse components to it for a 360-degree subject understanding.

With this dictum underlying its coaching methods, DocTutorials new upgraded coaching app Version 2.023 is geared towards enhancing students information absorption capabilities, making them ready for Year 2023.

This new app is replete with enriched, immersive content structured in a user-friendly, experience-centric menu:

Video Lectures – with hours of content on the full range of 19 subjects: Enhanced with technologically-superior 2D/3D animations, these videos encourage experiential comprehension of critical topics. They bring theoretical knowledge into the realm of practical reality.
70+ Integrated MCQ Discussion Videos (IMDVs) – featuring expert faculty: These IMDVs can be enlightening for students as they help solve New Pattern MCQs. By watching debates between renowned faculty members, they can get a grip on complex topics with varied nuances.
Several tests per subject – in a refreshed Test Series: The Test Series includes a steady schedule of subject tests, revision tests, grand tests and elite tests. These help students assess their subject grasp regularly and replace any exam anxiety with bolstered confidence.
Over 17000+ well-chosen questions – in QBank 2nd Edition: DocTutorials is a storehouse of past question papers and New Pattern additions as well. It has Image Based Questions (IBQs) and 17000+ Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs).
System Based Integrated Test Series (SBITs) – for in-depth learning: These tests aim to teach students about the human body through its various systems that operate in sync. This method of instruction leads to more a granular understanding.
Rigorous Test & Discussion (T&D) sessions – to sharpen focus and skills: These regular tests and discussions with faculty expose students to potential exam questions (supported by images and videos). Such sessions help with assiduous preparation.
Interactive Live Sessions – to leverage a wealth of knowledge: These are invaluable opportunities for students to interact with faculty members, clear doubts and queries, go over past exam questions and learn how to prepare for the Quick Revision Programmes (QRPs).
Leaderboard tests – for a competitive edge and a reality check: The Leaderboard is a ranking table that shows up-to-date results of quizzes and tests so that students can know how they are faring vis-a-vis their peers – and what areas of study they need to strengthen.

Those downloading, signing up and subscribing to the new DocTutorials coaching app V 2.023 for NEET PG students will be able to lift their medical learning strategies to the next level. The future is already here.
