u*******l 发帖数: 107 | 1 A few suggestions on Observer based on my experience
Lots of 2010 Match applicants are doing OB. Here are some advice I think
might be helpful:
1. The ultimate goal is to get a great LOR. Do try your best to impress
your attending. Learning medical knowledge is not the priority here.
2. Find a nice attending who is most like to help you. Not just any
