Career Advising Student Advisory Board Tip of the Month
This advice is for all students and includes first-generation and BIPOC student lenses.
Consider setting up shadowing in specialties you are interested in or making plans with your Triple I mentors for in-person/virtual research projects — even short case reports. Step 1 dedicated and clinical rotations come quickly, and you won’t have much time to plan for those activities once they start.
As it will be unlikely that you can shadow in your MS3 year, use your AAMC (Careers in Medicine) CIM interest assessment as a launch for shadowing, especially if you are interested in specialties outside the third-year core clerkships.
