Hello everyone, I am in a dilema with finalizing my ROL and would like to get your thoughts on my my situation. I am interested in Family Medicine but I only got two interviews and both programs are out of state. I also have 6 Internal Medicine programs on my list, two of which are closer to home. Unfortunately, these two programs would ideally be at the bottom of my IM list if not for the Location advantage. I have two kids, my spouse has no plans of moving(job, school) and says if I end up having to move for residency, he 'll keep them and get a nanny but I really don't know how that is going to work out. I guess my question is should I settle for the less than ideal IM programs to try and keep our family together or pursue my real interest, Family medicine?
I know at the end of the day, the decision is really mine, but I just wanted to hear other people's opinion.
