1) OK so most of us would be thrilled to get an ENT spot in Siberia, it's still fun to think about all the programs out there and where we will be spending at least 5 years of our life.
The onset of scheduling 4th year and the potential of doing an away rotation has got me thinking about where I would want to end up if the choice were up to me. I wanted to start getting some advice on how to pick programs that I might be a good fit for and programs that would suit me.
Of course we've heard the superficial stuff (i.e. super-academic types vs more community based) but what kinds of things should we be evaluating and where can I find some more detailed info on programs because 90% of the program websites I've looked at may as well just be the same website with a different name at the top of the page.
When attendings on here say "you need to have something specific about my program that interests you" what kinds of things are you talking about.
In other words how can we best evaluate a program.
