Career Advising Student Advisory Board: Road to Residency Tip of the Month
This advice is for all students and includes first-generation and BIPOC student lenses.
Explore and Focus scheduling comes up pretty quickly in the fall for MS3s. Start looking in the Explore & Focus Clerkship Catalog soon to see what options might be possible. Also talk to students ahead of you to learn about their experiences and get advice BEFORE the scheduling process begins. Watch Career Advising’s session last month on Early Career Planning for the Explore & Focus Phase and/or see the slide deck for a preview of 4th year career planning steps in the next six months.
The Guide to 4th Year Planning website has all the information in one place to help you understand how to plan your upcoming Explore & Focus phase and will be updated by October with information relevant to your class. The Explore & Focus Clerkships website is a great resource to learn about electives, APCs and Sub-Is.
