Hi guys,
I apologize if this is the wrong place to post this, and I know there are several other similar posts about "chances" but I'm looking for a little bit of more in depth advice if anyone could help me out.
3rd DO student in PA, 573 comlex 223 Step 1, Probably around middle of the pack in my class. I was an EMT for 3 years in college at a pretty busy fire dept., ER scribe for 1 year member of a few clubs in med school. Got a "P" on everything in med school so far (no honors but no failures). No research but trying to find a project.
My Questions:
-In your opinion, should I apply to the Osteopathic Match, Allopathic match, or both next year?
-Should I write my personal statement on my experiences as an EMT or is this kinda glanced over by EM Program Directors because its so common?
-Can/should I do an audition rotation before I go through my required EM rotation 4th year? (I want to start getting my letters and the school scheduled me for a september EM rotation)?
Anything else I should try to do to boost my application (Besides rocking Step 2)?
Thanks, I appreciate the advice. I know its annoying.
