I have a few questions about information on your blog I was hoping you might be willing and able to answer. I haven't read through all of the blog so please refer me back to it if these questions have already been addressed.
1. If the NDAA 2017 changes proceed as planned with consolidation of different medical branches into the DHA, how will that affect the frequency of AF GMOs (my recruiter told me that AF doesn't have GMO, but he didn't tell me about the NDAA either)? Will they be more or less likely to be put into GMO out of AF HPSP?
He/she lies. AF certainly has many GMO
2. How do GMOs affect military and civilian residency competitiveness? Is there a correlation between GMO tour length and residency competitiveness?
This has been discussed a lot in various threads...it can help in both cases, but if you're an avg student who likely would never match something very competitive (derm, ent, etc) then it's not enough to overcome.
3. I'm assuming all MTFs will be open to all branches of service in the DHA? (i.e. a Tripler posting being open to Navy and AF too)
That's years away and prob won't affect your match if you are in med school now
