Hi I am first year. I am very interested in the limb lengthening and Ponseti method. I would like to get some advices on what I need to do/achieve in order to be a candidate for such programs?
Do I need to be the top 5% of my class?
Which residency should I lean towards?
Do I have to be in the honor society?
Do I have to take on more than academics?
I believe knowing what I want and learning about the path of how to get there would provide and prepare me better for my future.
I am open to any advice offered to me.
I am probably top 15-20% of my class (we do not get our class rank til the end of 1st year). I have great leadership and interpersonal skills. I worked for pediatric ophthalmologist for 3 years, so my love to work with kids is definitely there. I work very hard and try my very best. I am very outgoing, but when I am in school I tend to direct most of my focus and not really doing anything besides that, such as community service and etc. I have hobbies such as watching TV series, movies, doing some light readings, and arts and crafts. They help me relax.
That is all I can say for now. I just want to shape myself to be the best candidate possible for the programs I am interested in. I appreciate any advices anyone has to offer.
Thank you!
