Hey all,
Been a while since I last posted on SDN. I've been accepted into an IM program and will be starting in June. I don't really plan on taking any vacations before residency other than just relaxing + video games + netflix.
Just a few questions:
1) Looking back, is there anything you wished you did prior to starting residency... like reading up on something (dosing, how to use IV drips/PCA pumps, etc.), studying for COMLEX 3 (I'm a DO student)??
2) How did y'all study for COMLEX 3 and when did you take it?
3) Any books y'all recommend reading up on before or during intern year? I currently have Pocket Medicine and am considering Washington Manual of Medical Therapeutics since it seems far more reasonable a read than Harrison's.
Thanks!
