Hey guise
Stats:
239 Step 1
P on every rotation, in the midst of surgery rotation with 4 weeks left, then a 2 week EM rotation
In Upstate NY
Yes my school has an EM rotation, and there's also an affiliated institution an hour away with an ED but it's nowhere as good for exposure/learning.
I'm still split between surgery v. EM, but now heavily leaning towards EM.
Planning to take step 2 early, and studying my butt off for it, aiming for 260+. I'm hoping that this will take some attention away from my average clerkship grades. Family stuff took away a week of dedicated studying from Step 1
My question is: should I do an away? Because my home institution already has an EM sub-I, how important is this considering my stats? (I do not have a preference on location in terms of residency or away rotations).
Any response is much appreciated
