Folks… please show up on time to rotations.. look interested… pretend to care… stay in top of your patient’s progress… these things alone will get you at minimum a pass, maybe even a high pass. They will also get you a decent LOR. Not doing them guarantees a bad one.

In today's ERAS app review, I continue to believe that LORs are teaching me more about the letter writers than the applicants in many instances. FYI faculty -- your student's LOR is not the place for you to air your grievances with the form itself.

@AndrewGutwein The risk of not matching on the student end is much higher stakes than it is on the program end. None of us like not filling our programs but we are already trained and employed. Not condoning lying but I understand it. Folks are trying to get a job by any means necessary.

Why can't we just standardize MSPEs (Dean's Letters)? Graphs, code words, thirds/quartiles/quintiles, one school even has some sort of pentagon shaped graph... Students none of these things work against you - honestly, but it's a lot of work to understand each school.
