  16. Special Strategies(it really doesn’t matter!) However, if you want……… • Don’t schedule ‘hard’ rotations back to back (eg. surgery, internal medicine, OB) • Don’t schedule things you think you are interested in first or last

  17. Why do Neuroscience Clerkship in Year 3 instead of Year 4? • If you think you might be interested in neurology or neurosurgery as a career choice • If you want elective time to try out other specialties that you don’t see in Year 3 (eg. Radiology, Surgical specialties, Pathology, etc. but NOT emed) • If you need more vacation time in year 3 for something (eg. Weddings, babies, etc.)

  18. Disadvantages of Doing Neuroscience in Year 3 • You commit yourself to an 8wk clerkship during the 4th year that must be completed by Jan/Feb of your senior year • It could “clutter” up important parts of Year 4 (eg. Specialty surveying, application period, extramural electives, interviewing, board study, etc.)

  19. POM III/IV • POM III is composed of 6 full day sessions during the year, one during each clerkship block. • POM III/IV requires a ‘research project’ • start in Year III • finish at time of POM IV in Year IV (March)

  20. The EEEEE’s • E-value • An electronic program designed for multiple purposes including tracking the diagnosis of patients you are seeing and procedures you are performing • An LCME requirement! • Evaluations of Clerkships • Provides invaluable information • Has resulted in many curricular changes over the years • Evaluations of Students • Shelf exams/Practical exams/quizzes • Faculty evaluations
