"After speaking with a former resident of your program, I have a good understanding of the daily life of a resident. After the morning case conference, I will spend four hours in clinical service. I will review X-rays, CTs, and MRIs of the brain, neck, and spine. Then, I will attend the noon conference with my fellow residents, where we will eat lunch and discuss our day. After the noon conference, I will return to clinical service for four hours, interpreting ordered studies. Once a week, I will be on call on the swing shift, dictating ordered studies for in-hospital patients and patients in the Emergency Department."
