I'm going to be starting 4th year in a couple weeks and will be doing sub-internships in the NICU and general wards. Besides working my butt off, any particular advice you guys have?

1. Eat breakfast before going to work. Hypoglycemic sub-interns are annoying.
2. If you're a guy, don't wear a bow tie. If female, no high heels. Actually, I recommend against bow ties and heels regardless of your gender.
3. Don't even think of touching a NICU baby without asking the nurse first.
4. Have a great time. Pediatrics, especially neonatology, is a lot better than grown-up medicine.
