We want to be able to share those ESSENTIAL COMPONENTS with you now and do it in a way that is both engaging and, most importantly, memorable!
All of us remember what a lifesaver mnemonics were during our basic sciences, particularly when it came time and tensions were running high. Memory aids saved us tons of time and always improved performance. But there are astonishingly few such resources available in clinical medicine, particularly when it comes to board preparation, certainly not on this magnitude. Clinical mnemonics aren't only important because they help you remember better and recall quicker! They serve two other very important roles. First, they function as TEMPLATES to help you efficiently sort out, process, and even filter through information you've either already acquired or will acquire post-Turbo Mnemonics. In their role as functional templates, you'll also be able SIFT THROUGH THE JUNK and reach correct diagnoses much more quickly and with greater ease, particularly when faced with cases on the boards or the wards. As you acquire new info, you'll know EXACTLY WHERE TO HANG IT in on your framework and you'll see exactly how it fits into the bigger picture! That may even be the biggest advantage of all.
Most all of us would agree that intelligence & performance don't necessarily jive when it comes to standardized exams. Sure, brains matter. Of course, study time matters. Perhaps the most important element, however, is WHAT you study, that is, what MENTAL TOOLS you take into the exam with you.
Are you someone who likes to have the best of everything? Do
you suffer from high standards? Then FRONTRUNNERS shares the same affliction and
feels your pain! If you've been searching (ok, even just wanting) the best

AUTHOR BIO:
Founder & chief instructor of Frontrunners Board Review & editor-in-chief for Frontrunners Publishing, Dr Mittman takes a modern, aggressive, "this-is-what-you-have-to-know" approach in medicine, an honest and refreshing approach to board review that
FRONTRUNNERS' clients have grown to love. Dr. Mittman's greatest joy is being able to pass along all those "tricks of the trade" that
are always so elusive but make all the difference between passing and failing
the boards. This, combined with an uncanny ability to present those seemingly-impossible medical concepts or "concept links" in a straight-forward and simple fashion, has made
FRONTRUNNERS reviews extremely popular. Dr Mittman loves the challenge of keeping
physicians "on top of the game". Dr Mittman's genuine enthusiasm and joy
for teaching, combined with his ability to share both his knowledge and unique perspective on education with others, brought him to found Frontrunners Board Review, which focuses exclusively on preparing residents and practicing internists for the key national board exams. In his roles as
author, academic director and chief instructor , Dr. Mittman's energetic and no-nonsense approach toward teaching fellow physicians "how to win the game", or pass the exam, through the use of a solid core of knowledge, mnemonics, "concept links", and other innovative techniques have won him critical acclaim as a unique and savvy physician educator and have brought his books and CDs into the national limelight.
