The American Medical Student Association (AMSA) of UW is thrilled to announce that Mock ER is open for general registration.
Being an undergraduate, trying to get all those med school prerequisites is tough. There’s volunteer work, research, MCAT prep, leadership, not to mention all the classes you need to study for…but the issue we’ve noticed is we rarely get to see what actual clinical problem solving looks like.
So, Mock ER is a 3-hour representation of real emergency medicine in which you’ll be competing in teams of four to triage, diagnose, and treat patients. The catch? While some of the diagnostic tests provided will help you properly treat each patient, there will also be tools that will be useless or misleading to make this simulation even more representative of an emergency room. Collaboration, discussion, and research with teammates will be crucial for success in this competition. Clinical cases used in the event have been curated by physicians and medical students, and you’ll have the opportunity to walk through each case with them to go over the proper diagnostics and treatment for each case.
Think you’re up for the challenge? Registration closes Friday, November 4th at 11:59 PM PST. Last Mock ER, registration filled within 24 hours of opening so make sure to secure a spot fast!
