I finally bought Beat the Boards and have an Ambassador code AMB265006 which can be used to save an additional $100.

I think that is correct

Thank you all for your input. It's good to know that I'm not alone in feeling this way.

Thats pretty much how I feel.

You're right. I've found the mid levels to be an entitled lot and one of them did not want to do follow up notes since they didn't want to be a scribe.

The other neurologist is currently in an academic set up with residents, fellows and mid levels and is not used to seeing every consult or follow up all by themselves. In their own words, "I don't have to see any consult or follow up and just go and say Hi to the patient before attesting notes".

:scared::eek: I am looking for a good concise book/synopsis for neuropharmacology. I dont have the time to read a 500 page textbook. Any suggestions?

I never read the Washington manual or the 5 minute consult so I cannot comment on the usefulness of those books. I did have the MGH handbook of neurology which hasnt been touched either. For a thorough understanding and clinical application Neuroanatomy through clinical cases by Hal Blumenfeld...

:scared: Hi, I am a neurology PGY 2 and seem to be struggling with neuroanatomy, neuroradiology and sometimes even the basic pathophysiology of neurologic diseases. Even after reading a topic I cant seem to retain it. I feel like the worst resident ever, since I'm always fumbling for answers. I...
