Hi all, I had an away rotation scheduled in a month, but recently found out that if I do it I won't be able to do my next rotation at my home program due to a schedule overlap (my away and the subsequent rotation overlap by a week or so). I can keep the away rotation, but I will have to use the time my school allots for interviews (and therefore will have less time for actual interviews) and will have to overload my Spring semester with difficult rotations.
Due to these conflicts, I would prefer not to do the away rotation and just keep my schedule as is. I don't really want to do an away anyway, and am only doing it because I am worried not doing one will make me less competitive. Do you guys think it is reasonable for me at this point to just drop the away rotation, or should I go through with it and just try to deal with the reduced interview time because an away is really just that important?
(if it matters I have average stats and research experiences for optho and already have all of my LoRs)
