Hi. I'm sorry if I'm not supposed to post in here as a pre-med student, but it seemed like the most appropriate place.
As a pre-med student, I have a desire to try and go into radiology or psychiatry. So I was trying to find out my question on my own. I started looking at the residency matches for different schools, and some of them it seemed had no matches for certain types of specialties. Does this mean if you go to "COM-A" you'll have no chance of going in to one of those specialties? This is the website I was looking at, and as an example, it doesn't look like KCOM (Kirksville) has a Radiology residency. Does that mean if I go to school there I can't become a Radiologist? As you can tell, I have no idea about any of this.

I've been told as a pre-med that I'm worrying about this way too early, but if not every specialty is available from every school, I need to pick one that will cater to what I think I might want to do.
Sorry if this is somewhat wordy. I'm very confused, and I could use some guidance. Thanks to everyone ahead of time.
