Pre-Rounds
Welcome to Pre-Rounds! Where we help you prep for bedside rounds with that one attending who kind of scares you a little bit. I’m your local 4th year medical student, Eli Chen, and we’re here to help you learn and retain pathophysiology and clinical reasoning to ace your Step 1, Step 2, and clinical rotations. No stethoscopes needed to listen!

Introduction
Hey study buddy! Let me tell you how this all began. During my pre-clinical years, I felt like listening to my professors use medical jargon for 200 slides at 2x speed couldn't be the only way to learn medicine. Over time, I stumbled upon fascinating gems in corners of medicine that also helped me prep for my exams, and I wanted to share that excitement with you.
Come with me as we go over common cases, prep high yield topics for exams and clinical rotations, and maybe dive into our own little niche of medicine along the way.
