PLEASE READ – IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Each day starts at 7:45 am — Please arrive on-time
Please make sure you demonstrate proper time management and professionalism
Whether you are taking this rotation as an ELECTIVE or as part of your CORE — be prepared to be challenged. This is not a “fluff” rotation.
Students will be working directly with Dr. Athni – no upper-level, intern, or resident.
This rotation is not physically challenging, but rather cognitively challenging.
Get a good nights rest – and be prepared to demonstrate your intellect.

Prior to the rotation, please log into https://edu.nocg.org which is our online educational portal
NOTE: You will need to use your school email account to register — this portal ONLY allows .edu email accounts to register
To gain full access to the resources, you will be provided with an “enrollment key” by Dr. Athni when you make initial contact with him.
Once “registered” and “enrolled”, you will be able to access a handful of textbooks and various study material.
You will find a “Pre-Clinic Quiz”, which should be taken without studying.
The Pre-Clinic Quiz MUSt be completed BEFORE THE ROTATION STARTS – i.e BEFORE MONDAY MORNING
Starting the rotation without completing the pre-test is NOT the signs of a successful student! A very BAD look!

Your day starts at 7:45 am
Tuesday and Wednesday are our “late days” – be prepared to stay till around 5:30 pm to 6 pm
All other days, you should be able to leave office around 4:00 to 4:30 pm
