Does anyone think residency programs would feel as though someone with extensive basic research experience AND an MBA may not really know what he/she wants to do? It's impossible to have a career in clinical practice, research, AND administration at the same time. The dilemma is that some competitive residencies practically require research (basic research is especially favorable), so it's risky not to have any. At the same time, doing basic research as an MD-MBA may send a negative message.
