Being the misunderstood bibo kids that we are, we were the favorites for this month (and sorry to future OB ICCs if that kind of legacy lives on:p). but the summary rounds made me learn a lot. Unfortunately, i think I learned more in OB than I did in pedia.  After the 30 minutes, we either go to small group discussions or preceptorials with t...
