Lectures

• Lectures took place in Collegium Anatomicum and Przybyszewskiego Hospital.

Seminars

Labs/Practicals

• Labs took place at świętej Marii Magdaleny 14. You first reviewed the theory and then split off into groups to practice the manoeuvres.

Internal Tests

• There is one final theoretical exam and a practical exam. The theoretical exam is made up of mostly multiple choice questions along with some short answer questions. In the practical exam, the instructor will ask you to perform a particular manoeuvre. To pass the course you need to receive at least 60% on the theoretical exam and perform all elements of the manoeuvre for the practical exam correctly.

NBME

• There is no NBME for this course.

This is not a difficult course. You just need to keep up with the lecture and seminar material to pass the written exam. The practical exam is quite straightforward.
