How to excel during clinical rotations, build relationships with attendings, and secure strong letters of recommendation.
Clinical rotations are where you build skills, form relationships, and lay the groundwork for strong letters of recommendation. This guide covers how to excel on the wards, communicate effectively with attendings and residents, and document your experiences for later use.
Showing up prepared, asking thoughtful questions, and following up on feedback can set you apart. We also discuss how to approach the LOR conversation and what attendings typically look for.
More content coming soon. Prept mentors who have recently completed clerkships can share rotation-specific strategies.
