And you and I talk a lot about just the science of reading and learning and how we can intervene with our med students, with our PharmD students, with our physicians, how we can intervene instructionally, and you and I have been talking for years about the study side of intervention.

Jim Culhane discuss test taking on medical boards and in the med school and PharmD classroom.Ībout natural phenomenon.
