Hi everyone
I'm an MS3 about to become an MS4. After spending all of my first 2 and a hlaf years in med school convinced I wanted to do EM, I then had my Peds rotation and absolutely fell in love (ironically, I also found that I hated the ER).
My worry is that I only recieved a 'pass' on my Peds clerkship (I high-passed obgyn, surgery, & medicine) and I'm kind of worried as to how that might look when I apply to residencies this fall. I actually did get a nice LOR from my attending, but he's just the kind of person that does not hand out honors or high passes very often at all.
I know it must look odd to a program director to see that I only passed the clerkship of my desired specialty. Anyone have any input or opinions on this?
