Hello All,

I am a science journalism grad student at New York University and I'm
writing an article on a new study showing that med students can learn
auscultation quickly and accurately by listening to heart sounds.

If you have a good story about learning or being tested on
auscultation, I want to hear from you!

I'm especially looking for an internist (any specialty except
cardiology) who has taken the board re-certification test since the
year 2000, when they started testing on the identification of heart
rhythms.

I'd like to ask you a few questions over the phone tonight or tomorrow
-- shouldn't take more than 10 minutes.

This article is for a class assignment but there is a possibility it
could be published.

Thanks in advance,
Karen
