Tried to find the answer to this using search but came up empty:
I front-loaded my 4th year schedule and in the second half of the year I will have a bunch of research and travel. In the 1-2 months before intern year I have the option to do a general Internal Medicine rotation or something fun like wilderness medicine/cush elective. If I do the latter, I'm worried that it would be almost 7 months without an in-patient medicine experience and that I would be too rusty at the start of intern year. No big deal or better to hit the ground running next July?
