Hi Everyone,
I wanted to see if it makes more sense to pick away rotations based on potential match or for big name letters.
For context, I go to a "lower tier" state school and discovered ortho late (during surgery rotation which ended a couple weeks ago). 250+ step 1. All honors in 3rd year so far. All honors 1st/2nd. Junior AOA. First author published w/ presentations in gen surg, but no ortho research (workin on it!).
I've talked to my home program residents and done a lot of reading...
