Beating Clinical MCQs in #USMLE or #boards2023 when you don’t know the answer! 🩺📝

🧵👇Check out 10 strategies to approach this challenge

#MedTwitter #MedEd #IMG #ECFMG #foamed #medicalstudent #internalmedicine #BoardExams #medicaleducation
Don't panic! 😱

Try to work through the question, use strategies below to narrow down the choices and make an educated guess. 💪🤔💡

General approach to MCQs: Reverse reading 📖🔙💭

a) read the MCQ starting at the last sentence in the stem (the actual question)
b) glance over the answer options
c) then work your way back to the stem

🧠I find this an effective technique to prompt & orient the brain.
