hi,
i have applied for california letter. i did my undergraduation back in India.but i have only 2 weeks of psychiatry clerkships. i have 50hrs(approximately 2 weeks ) of neurology clerkships also. is this enough to meet their requirements? some people say that we should have atleast 4 weeks of psychiatry clerkship. will they reject me because of this?

is anybody there in similar situation but managed to get the calif. letter?
please tell me what i can do now. i am very much upset about this.
thanks ,

I am not 100% sure - but I think most states require 6 weeks in psychiatry - perhaps you can do 4 more weeks and then you won't have any problems? Good luck.
