Just a question about timing.
I am currently a PGY-1 in a prelim medicine program, reapplying for R and Advanced positions. Ideally, the R positions would be great as I could continue without interruptions but there are far more advanced positions available. (Looking to reapply for Radiology) Assuming I match this year, I would have a full year off between Pgy1 and pgy2. What have people in similar positions done during the off year? I'm not looking to pay for a masters degree or volunteer research for year.
