Vol. 04 · Questions

Common questions

Can I upload my med-surg lecture slides?

Yes. Add your slides, care plans, or study guides and Lily builds questions on the assessments and priorities in that material, such as heart failure daily weights, COPD oxygen targets, post-op complication monitoring, and who to assess first.

Does this cover all body systems in med-surg?

Yes. Med-surg spans cardiovascular, respiratory, GI, renal, endocrine, musculoskeletal, and neurological content, and Lily pulls from whichever systems your material covers. A unit on shock gives you shock questions, not filler from systems you haven't reached yet.

How is this different from reading my textbook?

Reading is passive; you recognize the material without recalling it. Active practice forces recall and shows you the gap between the two. Every question comes with a rationale, so a wrong answer teaches you the reasoning instead of just marking you down.

Can I use this for my med-surg final?

Yes. Upload your cumulative review materials and Lily builds questions from the units included in that material. Use the results to see which topics need another pass before your final.
