Ok, so i've read lots of places that going to an Ivy League won't make much difference on getting in to a professional school (pharmacy, dental, optometry,etc.) But does the professional school you go to affect if you can get into a certain residency? (say nuclear pharmacy or orthodontics) Do you have to go to a name brand UG school to get into a top professional school to specialize?
Like if I go to Podunk state U, then my state pharm (or dental) school, could I still get a residency if I want, provided I have the stats? And does the UG I go to affect how good of professional school I can get in to?
Sorry, lots of confusing question. I know its way too early to think about specialties, I just don't want to ruin my options for 8 years down the road if I need to get in to a better UG. Thanks!
