Prite

I'm a soon-to-be PGY2. Any advice on doing well on my upcoming PRITE? Obviously, internship has been a year of mental atrophy (I know WAY less medicine but a LOT more about how to fill out the thousands of different forms I have to fill out to make anything happen in a hospital). Anyway, I want to do well and was wondering if there's a review book or something that y'all would suggest.

Thanks.

in my first year, everyone said, "bah! the Prite... who cares?" Now apparently it's becoming a Big Deal. Don't know about books--maybe board review books are decent prep? I'm not aware of a Prite review text out there, but you'd think someone would come up with one.

Getting old Prites is probably your best bet--ask your PD. We are doing a systematic review for the Prite this year--we'll divide it (somehow!) into 8 topics and the 3s & 4s will present it in class.

If you apply for fellowship, do these programs ask for your PRITE scores? If so, how much do these matter?

No, and according to the pre-test instructions, they are not supposed to.

sorry, but what is a PRITE anyway?
