Is neuro a rotation that you can do without?

Hey all,

Quick question... I have neuro as required clerkship. I have zero interest in neurology and I'm thinking of deferring it till my last year.

I've read threads from the past that indicate that neuro is a relatively low yield topic. Is that still the case?

Thanks!

Low yield? And you mean the whole of Neuro? That can't be true.

I dont think not having a neuro clerkship before taking step 2 is going to hurt you.

The neuro rotations is essentially anything you will see in world or student textbook. Migraines, PD, delerium, etc. Holding off won't hurt you IMO. I loved my neuro rotation though, it really helped me link a lot cardio/neuro stuff.
