Can't go into too much detail about this but I have a rotation lined up for 3rd year corresponding to my desired specialty but, unfortunately, word on the street is that the attending pretty much ignores the med students and doesn't write any letters of rec. My school also doesn't allow me to cancel the rotation once it is scheduled since it makes the school look bad (which I understand).
However, this means I can only get speciality specific LORs from my away rotations in 4th year. I know residency programs usually prefer to have 2 specialty specific LOR's. So, should I try to get two LOR's from the same SUBI rotation in 4th year? I guess I could do two SUBI's, but that would compromise my step 2 CK performance (which is more important than ever) and/or force me to turn in ERAS late. Thoughts?
Also, on a side note, how bad does it look to not get a letter from the 3rd year rotation?
