I need some input! I have an upcoming consultation or rather 'surgical evaluation' for VFS (voice feminization surgery) through the public healthcare system and I'm wondering what the best way to go about it would be.

Since it's an evalutation I'd be inclined to falsely make my voice sound worse/more masculine on purpose since my voice seems to pass in day-to-day life, and I'm not sure if my voice passing is a contraindication for surgery. Like in that case would the surgeon determine the risks of surgery to outweigh the outcome🤔

I'll definitely try to leverage being a med student as that usually makes doctors more talkative/friendly😅, but all in all I'm not even sure how much the surgeon decides since I did get a referral for the surgery (which I wasn't even counting on in the first place). So I'm overall in doubt about how to go about the evaluation😵‍💫

But yaa any input is appreciated😊

How much harder would you say dating is after college? I'm hoping to move abroad after college, so dating doesn't seem so feasible right now😅

As Thallo mentioned networking is such an important thing to do. I've gotten many opportunities by just showing up to random events and talking to people and showing interest.

Also finding out which study methods work for you helps a whole lot. Flashcards work great for my degree and for me personally, so I focus my time on doing flashcards instead of reading and taking notes. If you have a busy schedule it also helps to plan out when you do what and put it in a calendar so you can keep on top of everything.
