clerkship

Hello, I am a third-year medical student in Texas conducting an IRB-approved research project that aims to examine medical students’ perceptions of individuals with psychiatric conditions and their attitudes toward mental health challenges. The study involves a brief, anonymous 12–15-minute...

Like the title says. I want to go to a mid tier academic program like UMiami/Jackson Memorial Hospital. Would these grades be a problem, even if I score Honors in Sub-I and ICU, 250+ step 2, plus multiple research and leadership positions? I also have an away Sub-I at UMiami/jackson right after...

Note: I have mod approval for this post per @GoSpursGo I just released RateMyProfessor for med student rotations at www.rotationsinfo.com. We have a bunch of data for anything about rotations (housing, meals, best attending, etc). It's mainly meant for helping choose away rotations, but we...

I am a 3rd year medical student, in love with both General Surgery and Interventional Cardiology. These have been my favorite clerkships, by far. I love the thought of being able to immediately fix problems and I love doing things with my hands. I don't love clinic, but I enjoyed surgery clinic...

Is anyone else disappointed with some of the clerkships they chose? When picking programs, the only reviews to rely on were SDN and APMSA 2019. I'm not sure how other places are, but my school didn't have a good resource for seeing what previous graduates thought of various programs. I've...

I'm an American student currently finishing medical school in Panama City, Panama. I'm looking to apply for a residency program but have been told that observeships are great for your resume because of the recommendation letters and the additional experience you get from them . Is there any...

Hi guys, So due to COVID-19, my school had to truncate all the remaining clerkships, so 6 week clerkships are down to 5, and 12 week clerkships are down to 10. However, the scary part is that the grading criteria and percentile cutoffs are unchanged. We tried to reach out to our administration...

Just finishing my last week of anesthesia at John H. Stroger Hospital of Cook County, thought I would share my current thoughts about the rotation. At first glance being overwhelmed in a big city with a busy patient population I couldn't feel more welcome by the residents here. The relationship...

I am a very poor outfit selector. I needed help from many people to finally dress properly and match my clothes. I am confused about what shoes to wear in rotations. Should I wear comfortable running shoes with my dress shirt and pants? People say to wear something comfortable, but what about...

Can you please help me find an elective/clerkship in Anesthesia. I still didn't apply for a program as most universities require Step1 scores or do not accept international visiting students. If you know any program please let me know

i'm about to finish my 4th year in med school (our course is 6 years) one thing that really irritates me is the way physical exam is so glorified and they keep telling us hypothetical stuff about murmurs and stuff (murmur timing, change with position and maneuvers and such) when in reality...

Hi, I was told by a friend 5 years ago that paying tuition during rotations was like paying the school to work FOR the school. Soon I'll be in my friend's position and was wondering why the system is like this? Is there a way to reform this? Protest? So rotation years are FREE? I'm not asking...

I’m a 3rd year medical student who is strongly considering joining the Navy. I want to know if it’s to late to be involved in HPSP, if I’ll be eligible for military residency, and if couples matching with an HPSP 3rd year that I’m already dating is also possible. If not, any other options...

A friend at a private east coast medical school shared that his third-year grades don't really matter, since grade inflation is notorious at his school, with a third of his class honoring all of third year. As long as you put in some effort, you can expect straight honors. I attend a public US...

Hello everyone. So I've seen quite a few people posting about their chances of matching into their desired specialty but I haven't quite seen someone in my situation. So I come from a pretty small medical school in the midwest, not top 40. I got a 224 on the USMLE Step 1 in June of 2017...

In 3rd and 4th year what resources should I use to nail the wards and also the boards/CK? Which are clinical books most important to get the most out of rotations? My rotations are going to start soon so a bit worried about this.
