A study skills workshop as an integral part of orientation to medical school: the establishment of self-directed learning.
The MCP Program, a prematriculation academic support service workshop for all incoming students, combines techniques of learning style identification, study skills, time management and stress control. This has resulted in higher class performance, the formation of collegial relationships and an early emergence of professional behaviors and leadership.
