Just as the title says, what are some of the places that would best improve my chances of matching in metropolitan Chicago. Some background
- I have taken step 1 / level 1 but am still waiting to take step 2 / level 2 and get a score.
- I have done the majority of my clinical rotations at a level 1 trauma center hospital and really enjoy the ED to medicine admissions that these facilities receive.
- I love urban medicine
- I'm out of state, but my fiance (also a med student, different year) is currently in Chicago and she wants to stay.
- I am able to do 16 weeks of out of state rotations through my school.
All of the above is pointing to Cook County, which by all accounts seems to be a program I really love (are there any things wrong with the program?). Also, I'm trying to figure out what hospitals / programs I should do a sub-i at for the the remaining 3 rotations. Any suggestions will be helpful!
