Strategies bad test-takers can use to prep for medical boards
Just like you wouldn’t practice basketball drills to improve your soccer skills, it’s important to approach prep for medical boards so you can “train the way you want to play.” In this episode, host Ryan Orwig is back with Dr. Jim Culhane, Assistant Dean for Student Academic Success Programs and Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Notre Dame of Maryland University School of Pharmacy. They dig into more strategies students can use to prepare for medical boards, including using practice questions and the partial true/partial false strategy to prep for medical boards.
“But if you're hurrying, picking the first answer that looks right, if you're missing key words, if you know that you're that kind of test-taker because all through pharmacy or medical school or veterinary school, you're constantly complaining to your professors, ‘I picked the first answer that looked right’, or’ I missed this important phrase in the question’, you're the type of person that better slow down a little bit and utilize your time resource a little bit more effectively.” - Dr. Culhane
