High Yield Clerkships for EM Training

1. At least one EM Clerkship beyond the UW required clerkship. Peferrably, do it as an "away rotation" at a school that has a residency program you are interested in. This will help broaden your training, inform you about the conditions there and help you get an interview come residency application time
2. Sub-Internship in either Internal Medicine or Surgery (Note: All UW EM clerkships are Sub-I's!!!)
3. Cardiology (very important for repetitive ECG practice)
4. Radiology (reading films & CT's is essential in the ED)
5. Nephrology (important for becoming comfortable handling fluids and electrolyte issues)
6. Anesthesiology (more intubation and IV practice)
7. Something with an ICU component to get comfortable with really sick patients
