Hello all, I thought we could start a thread about the common questions that come up when applying for ortho. I'll start with some of mine...
As my schedule stands I'm currently doing my home Ortho month in July, then 2 aways in Sept/Oct. I have some Urology research that got published and was thinking I could do a Uro rotation in August to get a letter from the attending I did my research with. Anyone know if a Urology letter would carry any weight or be frowned upon? The other option I was thinking was to do a SICU month in August, but I'm slightly terrified of stacking ortho, SICU, ortho, ortho together. Any thoughts?
Feel free to post your own questions on this thread, I figure it's easier than having 50 threads to dig through to get any useful info...
