I am currently an OMS 3, and I need some advice on how to get the ball rolling on 4th year rotations. I am currently interested in family med, but I want to get at least one rotation in neuro because I've always liked the idea of it and still need to find out if it's for me or not. Anyways, no one has given me a useful answer on how to "set up these rotations myself". My school won't tell me anything but to wait. (My hub site is 5 hrs away from the school so I have minimal contact with them), but all the 4th years said they had already set theirs up by this time last year. I don't know how to gain access to the VSAS without the school, or whether that even covers osteopathic teaching hospitals. After searching for residency programs and audition rotation info online, I've tried emailing a few places (like the 4th years said to do) asking what the process is to get signed on for a rotation, but have had zero responses.
Soo..
Are there any third years at DO school who already know what they are doing next year?
Has anyone been lucky enough to have all/most 4th year rotations in the same city? (Not sure if I'll have to live out of my car/rent hotel rooms/ or what to do with my dog)
Am I jumping the gun and just need to calm down and let things happen?
FYI my school is relatively new so I think that Might be contributing to my anxiety about this process.
I'll accept any answers, reassurance, comments, questions, criticism, jokes, rants, etc
