Writing Quiz

As health professionals we write memos, letters, minutes, manuals, project proposals, literature reviews, scientific reports, book reviews, and more.  We get involved in writing as part of advanced education, as part of our contribution to our professional society, and as part of our routine jobs. Having good writing skills helps us succeed in our careers. No matter what our skill level, writing is something that can always be improved.
