i am interested in practicing in California, Arizona, Texas, Florida, New York, New Jersey, or Pennsylvania after completing my residency in NY.
my question is:
as far as medical school electives go, are there any specific requirements for these states?
for example, i have heard that need to do a family practice elective to get a state license to practice in California. do these other states mentioned above also require a family practice elective?
do any of these states require a neurology elective to get a state license to practice medicine?
also, i have heard that for Pennsylvania, you can only do a certain number of weeks of electives (6?) outside your school's own affiliated hospitals. does anyone know how many weeks that is?
