After taking tons of tests over the years, I have honed a study technique that works well for me.

And hopefully, it works for you too!

A thread on the study technique that got me through med school, residency, fellowship, and one of the hardest board exams I’ve ever taken:🧵📚

One time I taught a resident my favorite lumbar puncture technique

Years later, a different resident showed me their favorite lumbar puncture technique they learned in med school

It was my technique😆. Turns out I trained their teacher! The ripple effect of teaching is awesome

A 5-year-old male presents to the emergency department with inability to move his arms/legs and difficulty breathing. 

Family reports they found him ingesting these fireworks (see image).

What lab do you expect to be abnormal and why?

But…but wouldn’t my hand still get cut???

don’t make fun of neurologists until you walk a myelin their shoes
