1. Name of faculty member to evaluate your performance
2. Patient encounter logs

The exam consists of 20 questions and should take approximately 30 minutes. You must pass the final examination to pass the course. On the second Thursday of the rotation, you will take the exam, unless otherwise specified by your site coordinator. You will need to turn in your faculty evaluation form and the Smith General Urology book before taking the examination. If a faculty member is not available to complete the evaluation, please make arrangements with your site coordinator to sit for the exam.
You may register for 2- or 4-week blocks. Students have the choice of doing Adult or Pediatric Urology. Only students who plan a career in pediatrics or family practice should elect to take Pediatric Urology.

If you are taking the entire four weeks in Urology, you should elect two of the four services listed above.
