The eight sheets

How to use them

  1. Print the page for your next rotation and keep it in your white coat pocket for the first week.

  2. Read the example out loud once, then say it again with your own patient in place of the fictional one.

  3. Learn the pimp questions before your first day. They come up early, and often.

Practice it out loud

A script you have read is not one you can say. Present a fictional patient to an AI attending who cuts in, asks why, and grades you on a rubric, then drills whatever you missed.

One case, free. No signup, no card.

Educational content with fictional patients, not medical advice. Teams and institutions differ: follow your attending, your institution's protocols and current guidelines.
