I was accepted into ATSU SOMA and Touro Nevada. ATSU SOMA emphasizes in family practice places mainly family practice doctors (when compared to Touro NV). Family practice is not what I want to do.
In general, how much weight does a school's specialty preference matter to residency programs, not accounting for the school's selectivity in admissions, academic rigor, prestige, and coed stats.
In other words, will residency boards retract points if a school mainly turns out family practice doctors? "Eww, she's an ATSU SOMA grad, they basically only train for family practice there. She won't have the required skills for surgery. Rejected."
Happy Halloween
