I heard this from one of my colleagues today, and it was so funny I had to share it.
It requires some understanding of EKG interpretation.
First semester students are like a 3rd Degree Heart Block. They have the knowledge from class (atrial beats) and the knowledge from clinic (ventricular beats) but they can't put them together in an organized pattern.
First year students are like Atrial Fibrillation: They're starting to get it in clinic (ventricular beats), but are chaotic and confused everywhere else (atrial beats)
2nd year students are like Sinus Bradycardia: they've put the atrial and the ventricular beats together (class and clinic), but they're not yet up to speed.
New graduates are like Sinus Arrhythmia: they're up to speed, but the timing is just a bit off, and they have a lot of ectopy (premature beats).
