Hi,
I am currently choosing b.t a couple medical schools to attend. I am very facinated with neurosurgery, and though i recognize that interests may change, I would like to pursue the field of neurosurgery. I realize the residency is difficult to obtain and Im curious if attending a school that has 4 years pass/fail would be a disadvantage come time for residency applications. Would I be better off going to a school that has p/f/honors all four years and try and get honors as much as possible, or is the majority weight on board scores? Ive looked at match lists but they dont really tell me how many students didnt get the neurosurg. residency. Thanks!
