So I'm having a little life dilemma. I'm currently married and have a 6-month old. We just found out my wife is expecting again in June. I had originally planned on doing an away rotation or two, but now I'm re-thinking that option. I really can't leave my wife alone with two children under the age of 2.
My question is: How critical are these away rotations for someone with the following profile?
Looking to match in the midwest region - MN, WI, MI, IL, IA, CO, OH
Step 1 - 235
Honors - most of Year 2
NBME Surgery Shelf - 98th percentile
Good LORs
Helped to start Anesthesia Interest Group at our school
If absolutely necessary, my wife and kids could move with me for a month during her maternity leave. Looking for genuine advice from those that know, either way. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
