Hey y'all,

I am auditioning at a couple of academic programs soon and I am a bit nervous since my M3 Neuro rotation was primarily outpatient. I've rotated with residents on majority of my rotations both in and outpatient, but I was wondering if anyone had any advice regarding how to excel on inpatient neuro in particular? I was planning to review the most common inpatient diseases and the appropriate management,

Thanks

Go in with an open mind and a good foundation on neuroscience and clinical neurology. Don't be "too eager" - try to be amiable/friendly and let your natural personality show. It is more important to have a match in personality than knowing everything (that's what residency is for). As long as you work hard without being too overbearing, you will be remembered well when it comes to ranking.
