Block Tips and Advice

This is a content-heavy block, and the textbook they provide is massive. Due to Covid, I didn’t get to see many surgeries, but I still enjoyed the block overall. I personally used my lecture notes from lockdown and didn’t touch the textbook. Past papers are helpful, but expect to feel challenged by the MCQ. Despite that, most students do well. We had daily Zoom meetings with doctors or professors, and you’ll need to present cases from patients you clerked in the wards (around 6 patients). The portfolio follows a simple template.
