What operating room skills should I have a by the end of PGY2 If my goal is to become a competent community neurosurgeon at the end of my seven years? I am not trying to become a master surgeon. I just want to be a good surgeon who can help the low complexity patients in my community
My goal is to be competent at positioning, exposure and closing on basic spine surgeries by midyear and then near full independence by the end of the year. For cranial cases, I hope to start opening dura by mid December.
Too conservative of goals? There still seems to be a lot of floor work as a PGY two unfortunately. What other peoples’ experiences?

Anybody know anything about how the overall experience is here at the National Capital Consortium (NCC)/Walter Reed National Military Medical Center (WRNMMC)? How are the research opportunities, the faculty, overall operative experience (considering it is military)? Expectations for the subis?

I'm still in training but I've heard functional pays really badly. Does anyone know what people in PP and academics who have functional make up a substanial part of their practice are making?

I guess it's not the first but pretty uncommon. Failing for self-assessment on multiple attempts and now have to take it for credit. Any recommendations on how to pass at least? Apparently SANS questions are not enough even though I solved all modules +700 questions.
Citow and Pssarows seem very dense and memorizing won't work well because board questions were very specific even if you came across the idea before.
Would really appreciate recommendations on how to pass this nightmare
