We just received our schedules for our third and fourth year rotations. I will probably only do 1 away rotation at the program I am most interested in. I am not sure which month would be better. I am hoping that some of you who just matched (congrats by the way) could give me some advice. I know it is a while away but just wondering what everyone thought. My scedule is as follows:
Finish 3rd year rotations at the end of June.
July: Free
August: vacation/board review (our school give us this month off)
Sept: Free
Oct: Required EM Rotation at my school
Nov: Free
Dec: Free
During the free months we are allowed any elective. We are allowed up to three rotations in the same field. Therefore including my required rotation at my school I am allowed 2 more EM rotations.
I want to have some experience before I do my away rotation. Thererfore, I should do an EM rotation before I go. Should I do one through my school (as an elective) in July and then do the away rotation in September or do the away rotation in November after my EM rotation at school. Is there any difference in doing an away rotation in Sept vs Nov? Do you guys think there is a better way to go about this?
Thanks!!!
