PSA: Incoming Medical Students - Don't overlook EM

Fourth year medical student. I did not apply EM but have started my first EM rotation and I like it a lot more than I expected. For one, it's not extremely competitive and an average /below average Step 1 can get you to the next round of screening (unlike surgery or medicine). That said, there are a million other hoops to jump through for quality control of residents (SLOEs, Step 2, etc.). The shift work is great and the 8 hour shift went by super quick and it was afternoon before I knew it.... PSA: Incoming Medical Students - Don't overlook EM
