I did an observership at CCF (worked 20 months there as well), Internal Medicine, and I liked a lot.

I am not counting on it.
It was a very valuable experience for me, but for the residency I want, it's not going to make any difference (I've talked to the chief there). But I didn't ask for LORs from the observership, because I had gotten some from the doctors I worked with, that know me way better than the ones that supervised me for only one month. Maybe for somebody who has no LORs, it's a little more adding...

If you can do it in the University of Florida, I believe it's gonna help you get more interviews Good luck!
Good luck!
