No and no and no.
Lol. Is it that useless? Most of my class did it the summer before MS2. It just takes a day or so to study for. More if you don't know basic cardio.

It'll make what's going on at codes make more sense as a 3rd year, but that's about it

No, ACLS is not useless. I just have never heard of a school requiring it for clinical rotations. Either your school will offer it to you at some point as a student, or your residency program will have you take it during orientation. I would not advise anyone seek out an ACLS course on their own outside of those two avenues as it is (a) unnecessary for their purposes and (b) costs money. It's certainly not required for the match.

Yes.
(If by useless you mean it doesn't work and there's no evidence supporting its use)
