Hello all,

does anyone know what to wear for second looks? do
you need your white coat or anything? thanks
 
You definitely don't have to wear your suit. It is recommended that you appear "clinical and professional" - shirt, pants, tie, white coat.

White coat? That seems a bit odd for a second look, I would steer away from it. In these situations I think it's always better to overdress ...
 
Definitely do not wear your suit! Wearing what you would wear for a clinical rotation is appropriate (WITHOUT the white coat!). Remember, this is your chance to look at the program again not your chance to impress them.
 
i did a second look today. i wore what i would wear to the hospital on a standard day, no white coat. it seemed that that was what was right. i blended in well with the seniors who don't wear their white coats anymore 😀

at one of my interviews there was someone there for a second look, and she was dressed in standard work clothes too. i think a suit would be inappropriate.

it was a nice chance to get a "feel" for the program. it made me more confident for a potential cross-country move for this program.
