4 Days into 4th year and i'm really hurting with the EM clerkship workload. I was pretty gung ho about EM, enjoyed it as a 3rd year elective and did the scribe thing as a premed, but im 27 and these nights are brutal. i cant imagine what thatll be like as a 50 y/o. eitherway, i enjoyed my family med and peds rotations. a lot of the stuff i like about EM exists in the FM world, undifferentiated complaints, minor procedures, diagnosis. if i decide to apply FM, can I use (some) EM letters? I can probably get an FM letter from my fm 3rd year person, and pick up an FM rotation in sept. will that cut it for decent programs? US Md, 250 step 1, mostly HPs in 3rd year (hons surg, psych). advice on how to proceed?
