On Step 3 CCS,

If I admit a patient to the inpatient ward, should I put in activity orders, diet, omeprazole for prophylaxis, heparin sq for dvt prophylaxis, I/Os, etc. like we would do in real life?

I've tried putting them in and not putting them in for cases on the practice software and it doesn't seem to make a big difference, I get the case ending message either way (before the time expires).

They should totally program in a nurse in the software. Because if I admitted a patient in real life with no orders some nurse would be calling me every 5 minutes for a diet order. PATIENT NEEDS A TRAY DOCTOR WTFBBQ

Nvm, answer seems to be yes, write orders like in real life admit. the usmle world explanation were better than those of the nbme's practice software.
