So I am almost done with my surgery rotation, and unexpectedly realized that I love Plastic Surgery (probably reconstructive head & neck). I realize this is a super competitive field, and I am planning to meet with my advisor as well as the plastics residency PD at my school in a few weeks to discuss what I need to do to match. Also, I may need to restructure my clerkship schedule to accommodate sub-i's etc, which I would also need to take care of in the next few weeks. I have done some research and am interested in an Integrated program.
In the mean time, I would appreciate your suggestions on a few things:
1) When would I need to do sub-i's?
2) When do I apply for sub-i's, and where are some good places to do those?
3) When do I take Step 2, and should I take it before my application goes in (lots of people at my school wait until after to take it).
4) Any suggestions for other thing to discuss with the PD, or how to plan for my meeting with him?
Thanks a lot!
