I am just starting medical school now, in 2008, but looking forward to my MSIII and MSIV years I am curious if there is a comprehensive list of clinical rotations suitable for US medical students? I am interested in perhaps doing a rotation or elective in Asia or Africa (maybe Singapore, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, something like that) so I'm curious if anybody knows of any published text or list of all the possible rotation spots abroad or if you just have to find one on your own and work it out that way? It seems like a lot of work since most rotations are a few weeks or a couple months at the most that you'd have to work out all of the details yourself. Anyways, any direction could help immensely. Thank you in advance.
