Hey guys, I've got a few questions for people in UP, especially MS3/MS4. I'm deciding between Case and another school:
-Are the fist two years internally ranked?Do MS1/MS2 grades play any role in AOA selection?
-How much flexibility do you get in selecting where you rotate? (ex: doing all or 3/4 of the cores at UH/CCF)
-What is the role of the medical student on the wards? What's a typical day like on surgery or medicine?
- Are the clinical years graded on a curve? I've heard conflicting reports about this. (Student handbook simply says 90+ is Honors, but someone in program says graded on curve)
-What percentage of people usually get honors? Do you feel you had enough time to study for shelfs?
-Ok, so I'm 100% interested in ortho (I know it can change, but work with me here
), and away rotations seem to especially important in getting a leg up in the match. Are there there any limitations on how many aways/rotations I can do in one specialty in MS4?
Thanks all!
