US DO, Step 1 243, COMLEX 712 (most don't care, I know).
Honors so far in third year. Top 10% in first two years.
Founded an ophtho club that was pretty involved.
Really good non-ophtho letter. Ophtho letter (advisor of our club).
Research/Publications:
Ophtho case report, hoping to publish in AJO Case Reports next year, also presenting at ACOOHNS Conference with a resident.
Ophtho related abstract, also presenting.
Ophtho book chapter on corticosteroids, published as co-author.
Planning on doing as many aways as I can not only to get my foot in the door, but trying to get case reports or do a research rotation.
Any advice from current applicants? Should I try an ophtho away research rotation to get more research numbers and maybe a letter in the process?
