I'm an MS3 and have already completed my 2 week ortho rotation as part of the Surgery block where i recieved very high marks and an excellent evaluation from the staff. I am now working with this pediatric orthopedic surgeon on a research project, although the results of this study will not be available for possible 5 years from now. I don't have any other research to speak of. I have a 258 on Step 1. However, I'm from a state university, non-research top 50 med school. Most people would describe me as a regular, laid back guy. Ya know, love sports and mourn the awful performance of my college's football team over the last 4 years or so. I plan on doing 2 away rotations in ortho next year, most likely in regional programs that I would likely seriously consider rather than traveling across the country for my externships.
Any other suggestions for what could make me competitive for ortho? Could i be competitive to get interviews at top tier programs across the country both within my region and elsewhere?
Thanks
