The culmination of the three day workshop. The student will utilize skills learned on Days One and Two. Day Three offers a practical, hands-on experience interviewing a standardized patient, and observation and discussion of up to 13 SP cases. DAY THREE IS NOT A MOCK EXAM.

• Up to 13 SP cases most typical of those presented on the Step 2CS examination will be presented
• Each student will each be assigned one case at random. In front of a small group, in a supportive, educational atmosphere, the student will: conduct a (timed) 10 minute history of their SP; and receive 10-15 minutes of feedback from Dr. Swartz, Anna Lank, and the SP
• The student will then get to observe and discuss up to 12 more cases
• Each student will complete one Patient Note which will be personally reviewed by Dr. Swartz
• All patient notes and cases will be thoroughly de-briefed in a comprehensive discussion of all cases
