Away Rotations:
Choose places you’d actually want to go to. Much higher match rate at places you rotate at so BE INTENTIONAL.

LORs/mentors are helpful with CONNECTIONS at places.

Do what YOU want to do, not what other people say you should do.

Heading out to my final batch of interviews this week.

Feeling grateful and accomplished throughout the interview process.

Focusing on the NOW, not the future with an emphasis of finishing strong
