Tip of the Month” from the Career Advising Student Advisory Board

Cardiovascular System (CVS) can be a demanding block. This month’s tip is to remember that all the physicians teaching and mentoring you at this stage are possible resources — even beyond the classroom. Get to know your small group leads. You can always ask them about what their specialty is like and how they decided on a specialty when they were in your shoes!
