I've read some threads of people who have applied for, and gotten accepted to, OMFS externships during their 2nd year (well, I guess you would technically be a third year by the summer you do the actual externship). My question is for those that did these externships: Did you feel prepared/knowledgable enough to participate when your clinical experience was relatively limited?
I know externships vary in the amount they let the externs "get their hands dirty," but were you allowed to actually do much or did the externship involve just observation?
Any input would be greatly appreciated...even if you did your externship later than the summer after 2nd year.
