Stuck at a Primary Care School, Need Advice

Just came across this site....spent ALL day reading the posts. Glad there is such a great site to disseminate info on ortho!

I am at a school that emphasizes primary care, and thought I wanted to do general surgery...I JUST started an ortho rotation (halfway through my 4th year) and I absolutely love it. Unfortunately I had no electives during my 3rd year, and early in my 4th year I did all gen surg electives.

Im not going to post the typical "here are my numbers" routine, will I get into ortho: I realize it involves a variety of factors.

My question is this:

I just got an away rotation (kind of late) in ortho starting in November. I am rotating at a school currently WITHOUT an ortho residency, and have no idea what to expect in 2 weeks.

My wife is stressing, but I know if I don't go after ortho, I'll always have it in the back of my mind during my gen surg residency. Anyone else here do the same thing or feel this way?
