So currently on 3 waitlists (MD)but getting less and less hopeful. I have one DO acceptance which I'm grateful for but this past year I've found that I really enjoy several specialities based on my experiences from my gap year job. The DO hasn't had matches in these residencies so I'm hesitant of going there (also there aren't many research opportunities there and I've dedicated a lot towards research and would like to continue it). I've also been to the school twice and faculty is nice but feels lackluster. For context I applied not because I was originally interested but because my premed adviser told me to (dumb I know). Now, if I don't get off a waitlist I would be left with two choices: take the A at a school I'm not excited about and have an extreme uphill battle to get into the field I'm interested in or decline an A and reapply though risk being immediately rejected since I declined an acceptance. Am I essentially trapped here?
PS I'm a high stat applicant, with decent ECs though applied later in the cycle due to family matters.
