Started with Peds at Wyckoff. So far so good! A lot of pimping, so you need to read a lot. How much you learn depends on how much interest you exude. If you put forth effort you will learn. Rotation starts about 8 am to 9 am. I make it a point to come in aroun 6 to 7 so to ensure I would be able do admissions and not miss out on any learning experience. Some intentionally come right at the time the attendings arrive so to miss out on getting a patient as others have already grabbed them. They are able to "scoot by", but htat's not really our aim, right? Clinical rotations is also about independent learning (for the most part). How well you learn depends on you. With all these said.....I would say it's great! am enjoying it so far. The babies are so adorable!
