First off, congratulations to those who matched! I am currently a third year who is planning on going into anesthesia. I was just wondering if anyone had any particularly good experiences at a school on rotations. I am in the process of trying to find any good away rotations. I am looking for a place with first and foremost, good experience, and (hopefully) a letter that can really help my application. I have talked to a lot of individuals and they stated that I should be rock solid in terms of grades and such, but I just wanted to have a good letter from a school other than mine. Thanks for the help.
I understand that I should "rotate where you want to go"... but honestly, I don't know where I go. I should have the grades etc. to apply to a top program, but do I really want to? It is just hard to find information on the overal atmosphere at some of these big name programs (MGH, Columbia, Hopkins, etc.). Who wants to go to a malignant program regardless of name? I would love to match at a great program, but only if I am happy there. I have done some homework, but now I am looking for information from those with the experience!
Any help is greatly appreciated.
