Peer to Peer: Tip of the Month from Career Advising
This advice is for all students and includes first generation and BIPOC student lenses.
MS1: The CVS block can be demanding and time-consuming! In previous years, a lot of students benefited from attending the weekly group sessions hosted by peer tutors! If unable to attend live, you can watch the session recordings that cover high-yield concepts from class: https://education.uwmedicine.org/student-affairs/academic-support/tutoring/.
Additionally, remember that all the physicians teaching and mentoring you at this stage are possible resources beyond the classroom. Get to know your small group leads! You can always ask them about their specialty and how they decided on a specialty when they were in your shoes!
