  • 25-26Rotators reported a clinical rotation at Keck, the private hospital, and county, with wide pathology exposure. Rotators noted that roughly 30% of aways receive interviews based on faculty-resident evaluation. Attending contact was reported as moderate to significant; one week of structured attending half-days forms the evaluation basis. Rotators were divided on repeating given the interview odds.

Paraphrased from rotator survey responses. Names and identifying details removed.
