krelian said:Question about the Pitt scholarship: Is it only for people with very strong intentions to enter academic medicine? Do all of the applicants know that far in advance that they will definitely pursue academic medicine?
I don't think you need to be totally gungho about academic medicine, but you should have some "proof" that you're interested in research.
For those in similar situations, what are people's thoughts about geography and residency? Is it preferable to go to the school where you want to end up for residency? I suppose it would be, though I don't think the advantage would outweigh the money...
