Option 1

 * History of medicine in the United States
 * Article Evaluation
 * Article is a stub class, any missing some key information. It doesn't include how early American medicine was often a mix of both European medicine and Native American medicine. Specifically Thomsonianism, which had widespread popularity in America, specifically the northeast, in the 19th century, drew heavily from Roman scholar Galen's 4 elements theory, which was the precursor for the contemporary 4 humours theory, and herbal Native American cures.

Option 2

 * Hydrophobic Effect
 * Article Evaluation
 * Article is C class. In discussing what drives tertiary protein folding and the hydrophobic effect, it primarily relates it the the enthalpic drive of forming hydrophobic attractive London Dispersion forces. However, the real driving factor behind the hydrophobic effect is the the enthalpic factor, as the ΔΔH is very low. Rather, it is the entropic drive of the exclusion of water from the interior of the protein, as the less water molecules that are interacting with the protein and being incorporated into its hydration shell, the more water molecules can exist in very degenerate free water hydrogen bonding structures, which are very entropically favorable.

Option 3

 * White Coat Ceremony
 * Article Evaluation
 * Article is start class. While it does provide a good definition of a white coat ceremony, it doesn't include some of the controversy surrounding it, particularly surrounding the oath medical students are required to take, medical elitism, and how some claim it aligns medical students with their mentors and institution and in opposition with their patients.
