Hello, i am hearing from various sources that the bigger name programs (ex--MASS GENERAL, UVA, NORTHWESTERN) are very research oriented--and alot of their residents so a ton of scutwork. I personally want to practice community pathology. I don't mind doing a little research, but definitely don't want to devote a significant amount of time to it. Is it important to go to a residency with a big name even if you don't want to do research and want to practice community path? Will it be easier to get a community job if i attend a big name institution?
