Do you find the prelim med/surg/TY interns lacking in clinical skills or motivation compared to their IM/gen surg counterparts? Are there any specialties (rads, derm) for prelims you specifically dread working with?
When I was in residency, most of the TYs were going into super competitive specialities so they ran circles around some of the interns. I loved the TYs in general because of that. Prelims were often fighting for a spot as well so they were hard workers.
But our program didn’t have prelim surgery in the hospital so I don’t know.

TY moving onto unrelated specialities overall don't and shouldn't care about intern year. I would assume rads, psych, derm, and ophtho would be the most checked out.
