I rotated at Baylor as my first away. I had a pretty good time overall. If you perform well, they really favor you as an applicant. I wasn't required to do any grand rounds presentation. However, they interviewed us while we were there, which can be a good or bad thing for some folks. I guess one bad thing was I never knew how exactly I stood on their rank list since all rotators were interviewed. Dr. Yoshor is a really cool guy. I know he gets some backlash because of his direct personality sometimes, but he was very nice and beyond welcoming to the rotators. The PD is also a very genuine guy - you'll meet with him during your interviews. If you do rotate there, I would recommend requesting time at Ben Taub, their huge county hospital. Some rotators were not placed there and it's a real shame since that's where most of the residents' training is done.
