If the student is unable to locate the neurology team to which they have been assigned, have the neurology resident on call paged. The neurology team consists of an attending physician, neurology and rotating residents, and medical students. Students are assigned inpatients, for which they are responsible. Students are to attend daily rounds, present initial findings and daily developments to the attending physician, and participate in discussions pertaining to diagnostic and therapeutic maneuvers, discharge plans and follow-up programs. The final grade is based on clinical and written exam components, each equally weighted.
Honors is given when both components are rated as honors.
Near Honors is given when a combination of Honors and Near Honors are attained or Near Honors attained on both components. Pass is given to all others, except for those who fail either component. If the student fails the clinical component, repeating the rotation will be required. Failing the written exam will require passing a second written exam. Students are to attend rounds six days per week, with either Saturday or Sunday free.
