does anyone know specifics about Lankaneau prelim med year?

 

[ophthogirl]

hey i got an invite there and looked into it
here's the info i have - i got it from the website
13 spots for prelim med
8 months floors (2 of these are icu)
1 month night float (12am to 7am)
3 months electives
call Q4
2 weeks vacation
morning report 4 days/wk and a lot of other conferences
they pay for mksap review books and give you a $300 academic allowance
meal allowance on call
and there's lots of fellows

annecdotal - i heard from a resident who's friend did a prelim year there that "it was rough" - take that for what it is (ie not much)

don't know how helpful this is
but it's what i've got
good luck!
cheers
