Love it! I had 4 weeks of family med and 4 weeks of Internal Med I, which had three weeks in clinic, so I have had 7 weeks of pretty easy rotations. It is fantastic! Third year is so much better than first and second.

I switch to being a TA for my next "block", so we'll see how that goes.

Common sentiment. Nice to realize that the end product of all this is getting to take care of patients, not sit in lecture and memorize powerpoint slides.

Alas, the freedom and control over your own schedule you had as an MS1 and MS2 is gone, never to return.

I'm glad to hear M3 is going well for you!

Ugh, I've taken both CK and CS within the last week, and all I want is a break. Too bad I start my first fourth year elective on Monday. It's an away, a sub-I, and at a super well-known program. I'm FREAKING out right now!

And my goal to finish Eras before starting? Yeah, not happening.

That does take getting used to. I loved being able to have complete control of my day.

Good luck!
