Hello friends,
I am just a first year DO student but thought my question might be more suitable for this forum (and not med student forum). I changed my state of residence to one of the Midwest states (from California) since that's where I go to school. If I want to go back to California for rotations and residency, will I be at a disadvantage compared to California students since I'm not a Californian anymore?
I heard that residency programs (especially Californian ones) look for regional ties and think I made a mistake by cutting my ties to California... When I go back to California for the winter break, should I change my license and registration to California again? Then I would have to use my parent's apartment address though... Any input would be greatly appreciated.
