At our school, you have 6 months of core rotations for third year and then another 6 months of electives. We don't get to choose the sequence rotations for our core.
The problem is that there's a few sites that are immensely popular with students; to make it more likely that you'll rotate there, most people will be willing to do their core rotations 2nd semester and do 1st semester electives. I've heard mixed opinions about how it's terrible if you have to do core 2nd semester and it should be avoided at all costs...but then other people say that it really doesn't matter and it's not really advantageous.
Can someone that's older/wiser explain? Kind of clueless how it would work with step II studying and whatever.
Thank you
