So, I have a 228 step 1. Will probably end up with a low class rank. 3rd year grades are ok (Bs and a B+ in surgery) There is nothing special to put on my CV.
I already have my home emergency rotation for July and one externship scheduled that will be done at the end of Sept. So, I figure I can get two good SLORs from those in time for interviews.
I'm wondering, what would be more helpful for me to do in August: studying and taking Step 2 to get a really good score or taking an externship to get another really good SLOR, to offset average 3rd year grades? Thanks for any advice I can get.
