Well we finally got our rotation schedule. I was really nervous when we found out in an email during class that we would be getting our schedules right after lecture. Needless to say I dont think I remember a single thing that was taught after that. I am not sure why I was so freaked. I had told myself a long time ago that I have no control over where I go. I even told our clinical coordinator that I didnt care where she sent me, asn long as the rotation site was good and she thought I would do well / learn a lot there. Still I was pretty nervous. Well without further ado:
Clinical Rotation Schedule
1) Aug 31st - Pediatrics
2) Sept 28th - Surgery
3) Oct 26th - Psychiatry
4) Nov 30th - Rural Medicine (elective)
5) Jan 4th - Critical Care (elective)
6) Feb 1st - Family Medicine (2 months)
7) April 5th - OB/GYN (3 weeks at a planned parenthood clinic/ 1 week OB in hospital)
8) May 3rd - Internal Medicine (2 months)
9) July 6th - Emergency Medicine
I am really excited. However my motivation has almost completely run away from me. I need to get my head back in the game. If you see my motivation will you tell it to go back home? Thanks!

So, do you know where you're going, or just when? Are the locations ones you like?
It's interesting to see how different schools set up their rotations schedule - we have ten rotations with one elective (inpatient medicine, outpatient medicine, pediatrics, psych, OB/gyn, geriatrics, orthopedics, ER, surgery, and elective). Most rotations are 5 weeks long, and three of them are 4 weeks long with a week off before. I'm still in my first rotation (inpatient medicine) which concludes with written and physical exams at the end of the month. (EEK!)
... Why did I think you had already started your rotations? hm. Good luck with your finals, I guess! :)
