Zac Schoene, Financial Advisor
Part II of the two-part series will focus on the various types of retirement accounts and financial accounts and their purposes and cash flow. Cash flow? You are familiar with the terms income statement and balance sheet – but that is just for your business, right? Not true – Zac will show you why you need to keep a personal income statement and balance sheet and how it will help you achieve your financial goals.
The YPN’s Guide to DOing Med School Podcast
Listen to the first episode of the brand new Young Physicians Network podcast, The YPN’s Guide to DOing Med School, hosted by Hannah Newland, OMS IV and Caleb Liles, OMS III. They discuss study strategies, useful websites/apps, and their experiences adjusting to the pace of medical school. MAOPS is particularly proud to be sharing Student Doctor Newland’s story, as we believe it will help a lot of first years who might be struggling right now or soon after their first exam.
Episode 2 is hosted by Tam Nguyen, OMS-II and includes an interview with Dr. Jared Nichols as well as Student Doctor Ambrose, OMS-II. This episode covers mentorship – where to find a mentor, what to ask, the benefits of this type of support, and what it might look like throughout your career. It’s a realistic and honest discussion about something a lot of students struggle to develop.
