Unless things have changed over the past few months, I think the "scutwork" info is very accurate. Residents work hard, and the hours are long, even for a big-city program. The apartments (across the street) are a bargain by NYC standards, with studios running from 1,000 in the old bldg to ard...

Thanks for the invaluable info!! :love:

Is December too late to participate at an away-program to try to increase my chances for an interview?? Some say November is the cutoff. Also, does doing an ICU rotation at a program you're applying for an Anesthesia spot give you a chance to rub elbows with the Anesth attendings, or will they...

Thanks for the info, Neil! I'm guessing your blocks were composed of random q's, right? I've been in the 60's so far as well, but i've been doing topic-specific q's, so that's kind of tough to compare. Soooo wishing I could be in Prague right now!! :p

I hope I'm not reiterating a question that's already been answered, but....do you apply for Ophtho residency as MSIV, while simultaneously applying for your internship year? Is it possible to apply for ophtho WHILE completing your internship year? If so, is it advised?? I mean, it'd buy you...

Thanks to all for their responses! I thought the last post was esp interesting. Up until now, I've been under the impression that Step 1 scores are the primary determinants of where you end up. That's why I was surprised at how well I seem to be doing in my first rotation. I seem to be...
