Hey All,
Frequent reader of this thread so I just thought I would pick your brains on my current issue. I am currently a third year going through my core rotations in NY looking to apply for neuro next September (for 2017 match). I go to a Caribbean school and our core rotations are already set and locked when we start them so I wont be able to start my neuro rotation til first week of September (after my cores are over), about a week before the beginning of applications. I really do not want to put off the match one year as I am wanting to finally start my life and also not face the increasing difficulty of matching every year. I guess I just wanted to know what you guys would do in this situation. How do you go about getting letters? Will not having my comments and grade for neuro by the opening of application hurt me? I have a mid 220s Step 1 and so far honors on my rotations. Also, I should have Step 2 by the time I apply. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
