Hi Everyone--

I was wondering if it is possible to apply to two different specialties.

Thanks guys!!😍

Anyone? Please!!

Do you know if this can be done successfully and/or what the drawbacks might be?

Thank you!

For what purpose? Why would you be applying to two...?

I'm sure it's POSSIBLE, however I don't see any situation where that would be a wise thing to do. If you are so undecided on career paths that getting accepted into a program will determine your fate I'd wait a year then apply. Also, if any program found out you were applying to multiple specialties I'd assume they would deny you.

BUT...I don't know your situation so best of luck!

I could see someone applying to Pedo and Ortho at the same time.

Yeah it can be done. But you have to tailor your application to fit either specialty as needed. This is a bit of a silly question. Give us a reason why you want to do this instead of an emoticon.

My money is he wants to apply to OMFS and ortho for the money.

I could see this being more of a problem than anything else. It's almost like the whole medicine vs dentistry. Similar fields, but then not so much.

Agreed. Best to make up your mind before applying.
