I would strongly consider doing an away rotation in one of the cities you're interested in. I would not advise doing a rotation at two different programs in the same region as there is often a subtle (sometimes not so subtle) sense of competition between programs. For sure do a rotation at your home institution and try to get connected with a mentor. I'd also consider doing a small research project in Oto.
