    Study Buddy of the Week #PetsThatMedStudy

    Each week we feature a pet who studies alongside their human! It's no secret that having your pet around reduces anxiety and brings you a sense of calm. Just having your pet (or pets) there with you during a study session makes you feel like you're not in it alone! Plus, having your pet around during a study session can remind you to take frequent breaks. Go for a walk, or get them a treat.

    Pets bring joy to study sessions. That's why we wanted to feature all the awesome pets out there helping their humans get ready for exams. Have a special study buddy you think needs to be the study buddy of the week? Direct message us your picture or tag us and tell us something about them! 

    Check back here each week or follow us at @medstudystrong to see the study buddy of the week.
