If you have no idea what this is please go view this page first. This is week four of our prep course! If you never got “the rules” read them under the heading “So how do I use this?“
Welcome to week four of our journey through intern preparation. Week One had a good dose of OB and Peds, Week Two had a focus on communication and both inpatient/outpatient medicine, Week Three was a bit of derm and psychiatry. And this week… we couldn’t focus on a single theme (hello, we’re generalists) so you get a little bit of everything.
