So as you can probably tell by my username, I have a few specialties I'm interested in. Based on the Charting Outcomes for the past few years, 3 out of the 4 of them heavily weigh "interest in specialty" during candidate selection.
Say I apply neuro, but I have a few experiences dedicated to PMR, rads, or psych, will that count against me in selection? Will they think I'm applying neuro as a backup?
You can say "oh, you're guaranteed to match any of those specialties" and I'm aware I can match *somewhere* as a US-MD, but my goal is to match at very specific regional institutions and want to hedge my bets as much as possible.
