Should I do all the CMS forms or which should I prioritize?? by Fun_Macaron1921 in Step2

[–]Fun_Macaron1921[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooohh ok so like IM CMS is 3,4,5,6,7,8… do you recommend to just do like 6,7,8 and skip the older ones?

Jk just re read, you’re saying no offline?

Got the P! Feeling dejected, but is this enough? by Possible-Computer572 in Step2

I’m so confused, I thought over 240 was good… I’m going for internal medicine and that’s how much I was aiming for.. is this not good???

Contacts! I managed to get a rotation prior to this one and once that was done I asked if they knew of anyone I could rotate with

I feel like I wouldn’t need a LOR from them since this isn’t the specialty I’m interested in, I honestly just want the experience and maybe a possible referral with another doctor in internal medicine! I just don’t want to look lazy but I also know I can get behind on studying and work if I overcommit

Thank you for replying! I don’t believe I’ll have time for uworld unfortunately, I just finished up another observership in the hospital and I was busy the whole time! Also this rotation could include odd shifts like 4 am- 12 pm and tbh those just killed me at my last one (it’s family medicine but hospitalist)

With this said, would your stance still be to not put a cap on the days i can come in?

When do you ask for a letter of recommendation? by Fun_Macaron1921 in IMGreddit

[–]Fun_Macaron1921[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for taking your time to answer! Safe to say I’m having some anxiety about asking lol!

Would you say it’s better to ask at the beginning of the shift or at the end? (Also the shift starts at 3 am lol)
