Rules For Medical Students

In a fairly random bit of work avoidance, a couple of us have decided to try to compile a short list of essential bits of wisdom for clinical medical students on firms.

  1. The more you put in, the more you get out.
  2. The more you put in, the more you are expected to put in.
  3. Never run when you can walk, never walk when you can stand still, never stand still when you can sit down.
  4. The student that sticks out gets hammered down.
  5. The student that sticks out gets the merit.
  6. Nobody Ever Really Fails.
  7. The consultant is always right.
  8. The ward sister is always right.
  9. When the overkeen international / gepper says that they have been in since nine, they have really been in since eight.

More to follow, suggestions welcome.

Something along the lines of 'stand closest to the patient and you'll get asked the first / easiest question'
