Divine Intervention Episode 209 – Family Medicine Shelf Review Series 2.

In this episode, I continue our comprehensive review series for the NBME FM Shelf Exam. I specifically discuss psychiatry in the context of the shelf and how most pathologies will be tested (including a behavioral science component). This is actually a very HY podcast to listen to right before the shelf for super easy points. I essentially tell you the vast majority of what you need to know here. The NBME definitely tests a host of psych concepts on this shelf. There are no attached slides.

Divine Intervention Episode 207 – The USMLE And Geriatrics Part 1.

In this episode, I discuss a large variety of HY geriatric topics that the USMLE expects you to know (falls, ADLs, depression, pressure ulcers, incontinence, cognition, and others). I strongly recommend getting this and the military podcast (Ep 204) down. Super HY for the more recent exams. There are no attached slides.

I then delve into my thoughts on studying and repetition. I then conclude with a discussion of the different course options I offer for the USMLE based exams. There are no attached slides.
