Rules

Keep Content Relevant: Content should be related to medical careers in Canada or for Canadian students. This can also include going out of the country for medical school, as long as it is still about Canadian students.
No advertising/self-promotion: There is a lot of spam in this area, so please avoid sharing links to blogs, YouTube channels, consulting websites, businesses, etc. If you made something or if you know of a free product you believe would really help pre-med students, you can go ahead and post. When unsure, feel free to DM a moderator by clicking the username below.
No AMA-style posts without approval: This is mainly for prior verification. While this doesn’t happen often, we want to ensure advice is from reputable sources.
No research/surveys
