Medical students LOVE flow charts. We use them to learn and understand different feedback loops in physiology and endocrinology, compare and contrast similar diseases and analyze a multitude of other things. How is the body affected if ADH is raised? Flow chart! How to you narrow a differential diagnosis based upon exams? Flow chart! How do you determine what speciality to specialize in? Flow chart! One of our professors had this useful flow chart in his lecture today. I think it might be fairly accurate, except for those gray areas like pediatric surgeons because every pediatric surgeon I've met has been VERY nice (but feisty enough to handle the other surgeons).
