In my fantasy 4th year, I want to do an international rotation and do some away rotations (at programs where I want to match). Plus, I want to take Step 2 early. Again, this is my fantasy world, where I have all my stuff together, the planets aligning and all.
What is a reasonable timeline to integrate something like this with applying to residencies during your 4th year (which starts, say, June)?
Keep in mind the following need to be accounted for:
- being overseas and not having a reliable mailing address, email connection, and/or phone (are there secondaries/supplemental apps prior to interview invites?)
- having enough time to put together a good application and personal statement
- not asking for days off at an away rotation so I can go to an interview at another program
I'm only a 2nd year, so I'm unfamiliar with life after boards.
Thanks in advance for your input!
