I've always heard that one of the best ways to get into a particular residency program was to do a rotation there. So I was wondering:
1. How many times do most MSIVs move in order to do a rotation where they would like to apply to? I have a family, and I'd rather not have to move around too much.
2. Do most students apply to just one type of program, or do they put some less competitive programs further down the list?
3. How many programs do most students apply/interview/rank?
4. For DOs: How does the internship work? Is it required? Do you apply for your residency at the same time, or the following year? Does it count for your first year of your residency (i.e., apply for a PGYII?)
