Borrowing from our experience administering board reviews over the years, FRONTRUNNERS BOARD REVIEW has passionately in medicine and the medicine components of the USMLE, as well as current trends in content. We want to be able to share those ESSENTIAL COMPONENTS with you now and do it in a way that is both engaging and, most importantly, memorable! All of us remember what a lifesaver mnemonics were during our basic sciences, particularly when it came time and tensions were running high. Memory aids saved us tons of time and always improved performance. But there are astonishingly few such resources available in clinical medicine, particularly when it comes to board preparation, certainly not on this magnitude. Clinical mnemonics aren t only important because they help you remember better and recall quicker! They serve two other very important roles. First, they function as TEMPLATES to help you efficiently sort out, process, and even filter through information you ve either already acquired or will acquire post-Turbo Mnemonics. In their role as functional templates, you ll also be able SIFT THROUGH THE JUNK and reach correct diagnoses much more quickly and with greater ease, particularly when faced with cases on the boards or the wards. As you acquire new info, you ll know EXACTLY WHERE TO HANG IT in on your framework and you ll see exactly how it fits into the bigger picture! That may even be the biggest advantage of all. Most all of us would agree that intelligence & performance don t necessarily jive when it comes to standardized exams. Sure, brains matter. Of course, study time matters. Perhaps the most important element, however, is WHAT you study, that is, what MENTAL TOOLS you take into the exam with you.
