I'm looking into commissioning into the National Guard as a medical student, taking advantage of the MDSSP, and potentially STRAP in residency. Now, I've seen a lot of people mention that COs are good with letting med students and residents be flexible with their weekend drills, and waived the annual training requirement.
Is this the norm? I've noticed some people have said it's on a case-by-case basis, so has anyone actually had a bad experience?
If you did have a bad experience, how much of a detriment do you think your National Guard was to your medical school education and residency prospects, and what long-term negative effects do you think it had? Lastly, was it worth it?
