Hi,
I'm looking to pursue an orthopedic PT residency upon graduation. I'm currently a 3rd year PT student and graduate in December. First, would you recommend applying to schools before graduation or does that make you less competitive, or should I begin applying to schools before I graduate? Also, how generally competitive are residency programs? Lastly, what do programs really look for from applicants to set themselves apart and build the best resume? Thanks a bunch!
