My impression is that 4th year elective grades including aways (which obviously matter) seem to be gimmes assuming you work hard and don't be an @ss...

I was wondering if any of you had the same / different impression and if ortho programs gave a damn what someone received in electives outside of ortho (Medicine SubIs, G Surg SubIs, etc) For example, my school requires a medicine Sub-I that I wanted to shoot myself during.

Thanks for your thoughts.
