A good part of the problem is that the
schools are teaching to the test. The test is written. If you know what a wiry
pulse indicates, you’re good for the test. Whether or not you can
properly identify a wiry pulse is not important.
I once complained about the clinic at our
school to our clinic director. He asked me if I had passed my boards. I replied
that I did. He then told me the schools job was pretty much done.

Dear All -
Especially those who are replying to the survey. There is no need to identify
schools. Rather, we are trying to understand perceived competency in the area
of pulse diagnosis. Hopefully, with sufficient evidence, we can begin to make
changes. That is, if a real need is identified. To date, there are insufficient
responses from our 600 members list to make a dent. Over a hundred responses
would be remarkable, but more than 30 will give some power to the data.
The NCCAOM is preparing a job task analysis. If anyone is interested in
participating in that process, let me know and I will put your name in the hat.

Unfortunately, no, I did not. Although my professor is highly
skilled in the methods of Hammer, he had to teach to conform to Maciocia's
text. To have that talent withheld was frustrating.

I did not receive enough pulse DX. training in my core curriculum, but was fortunate enough to have Will Morris as one of our teachers for pulse seminars.
