Hello all, I'm planning on setting up my first ophtho elective next August (2008) at Bascom Palmer. Now, I have no intention on applying there because I stand about one in a thousand chance at matching there. But I want to do it to get a good , "big wig" recommendation for my application.
Given that its my 1st elective though, I'm afraid I won't be able to showcase any special talent in the field of ophtho, and thus, maybe not get the best rec. My question is, should I instead do my 1st elective at a program that I have a better chance at matching, and then do my 2nd one at Bascom Palmer? Thanks all,
Turk.
