How can we find out about the strength of a given schools clerkship and clinical rotation strengths and affiliation?

Check the second link Goro posted, I actually just copied and pasted the Q's to ask in my notes lol. But I'm assuming that's only applicable if you get an II to that specific institution. Otherwise just do your thorough research whether it be on here, on their website, or if you know any M3s or M4s.

You have to ask at interviews, or inquire in the school-specific discussions.

Key is reaching out to 3rd years and 4th years, they are the ones who can tell you the most about rotations. This is difficult for some schools since students are shipped out to far off sites. Even the faculty cannot answer a lot the site specific questions. I maybe had some of the questions answered about them during my interviews.

I was just looking for something like this a couple days ago so I definitely appreciate it. If I'm lucky enough to have multiple options, this will be my number one concern.

Haha definitely a good post! But I think for now... Let's see where even accepts us first! This is no time to be picky in my head 😛 (But for real, this will come in handy if the opportunity awaits us to narrow down from a list of accepted schools).

This is 100% true.
