I think a mistake to avoid would be not interacting or contacting the specialty you want to go into. And if you're in medical school or thinking about medical school or thinking about going into medical school, I would suggest talking to a doctor you know, talking to a surgeon or primary care or whoever and asking to shadow. I think everyone likes to teach. If they don't like to teach, you probably shouldn't. A no is totally fine and you should go with somebody else. But don't feel like you're limited. I would definitely feel like you should be able to get in contact. We do a lot of student rotations, not only with my specialty but all other specialties and primary care. And it's enjoyable to have a student around and it's exciting for them and it's exciting for us to show them the ropes a little bit. So reach out and somebody will be happy to take you under their wing and show you what they're all about. Get some experience.
