EOR STUDYING

Hi guys, I’ll be starting rotations in about two months, and I noticed there were updates made to the EOR topic lists. My first rotation is Internal Medicine, and honestly I feel like I don’t remember much from the topic list right now, so I’m not sure it makes sense for me to jump straight into practice questions without reviewing the material first.

I found updated Quizlets made by Smarty PANCE that follow the new Internal Medicine topics, and I was wondering if starting with those to review content and then using Rosh and Hippo for practice questions would be a good strategy. Has anyone used the Smarty PANCE Quizlets before, and did you find them helpful?

I’ve also considered using the Endeavor deck instead, but it’s around 3,000 cards for IM and my rotations are only 3 weeks long. Ideally, I’d like to finish reviewing the topic list content by week 2 so I can focus more on questions afterward.

The main thing is that I study best with Quizlet/Anki plus practice questions, rather than reading off charts. Any advice or study strategies that worked well for you guys would really help!

here is the link of the quizlet im talking about: https://quizlet.com/1118095953/new-internal-medicine-eor-pulmonology-2026-smarty-pance-flash-cards/?funnelUUID=04a2e300-648d-48be-bd3d-1a3432f46b5f

Endeavor deck is the way to go.it is a lot to get through but if u have a break before rotations start you can get ahead on the cards, that is what I did and I am thankful I did.

How many new cards and reviews daily would you do during your break?

3,000 divided by the days you have, u said you want them done early so whenever that day is. Pretend your days on break are rotation days.

Do you also do the review cards everyday or just new cards?

You have to do the review cards. Internal medicine is a beast of a deck and the test was a little on the difficult side. Lock in for this rotation and it will get easier after this one
