I'm trying to figure out my M4 schedule with general surgery in mind, but I am failing to find much guidance. Could you please help? My school has 2 required courses and 5 electives. I'll be taking Step 2 in July and starting M4 in August, when I plan to take a Sub-I.
1. Required Advanced Medicine
2. Required Advanced Surgery
3. Surgery Sub-I (in August so I can get LOR in time)
4. Research Elective (during interview season)
5. Anesthesia
6. Radiology
7. Second Surgery Sub-I or an elective in SICU, Trauma, Plastics, CT
My questions are:
- Is there any point in a second Sub-I? Or should I just do a surgery elective? Is a Sub-I even necessary?
- Are anesthesia/radiology good choices? Or should I do more surgery electives? I figure it doesn't matter because I'll be taking them in spring after interviewing.
- Am I going about this totally wrong?
Thanks in advance.
