Hi everyone. I am a MS3 who is trying to figure out my schedule for fourth year which for my school starts in March.
For away rotations, how competitive are the applications? Is it acceptable to apply to more than one at a time and if so how many do you guys usually apply to get one spot? For a reference point, I am thinking of doing 2 rotations and am mostly looking in the mid-atlantic and NE areas but am open to other areas. Most likely, 1 big-name program and 1 program where I want to live regardless of tier or status.
Secondly, I haven't decided what to do for intern year. I have heard both TY and prelims are acceptable but I am wondering if anyone has done a prelim in OBGYN? I am also considering medicine but I wouldn't mind doing OBGYN given it has a good mix of procedures and I really liked it.
