Rotation Basics:

Grade:

• Largely based on evaluations by attendings and residents. It is very important to have a thorough knowledge base on the case you are seeing, because attendings ask a lot of questions on this rotation. A presentation given at the end also plays a role in grading.

What books/materials/white coat supplies do you need?

• Books are provided. Scrubs are to be worn in the OR; professional attire and white coats for clinic.

Student-suggested helpful hints:

• Be there and get your notes done before the residents come around.
• Presentation style matters! Be concise, be fast, and give a good surgery style presentation on rounds.
• Surgery skills seem to matter more on ENT than on any other service - know how to tie knots and stitch!
