Episode 2 – How to Do Well on Away Rotations

In Episode 2, Andy Malarkey and Emily Tan discuss tips for medical school students on away rotations.  It can be very challenging to understand the fine line between standing out in a good way and standing out in a bad way.  We talk about some big picture tips that can help students authentically present themselves in their best light.  Just as importantly, we also talk about ways to optimize learning while on subinternship rotations.  These away rotations often take place in busy, high stress environments where very little attention is directed at students.  It can be a real struggle to learn in this environment and there are certain ways of approaching it that can exponentially improve your understanding and retention.  We hope you enjoy our discussion!  Let us know what you think!
