Oddly I didn't see this had been started yet this year, so I thought I'd get it rolling w/some questions...
1. Due to the increasing competitiveness of the field, what is the verdict on the necessity of publications? I have a prospective study in progress, and two other studies nearing submission within the next several months but nothing published as of yet.
2. I am a D.O. and realize their still is some bias from programs (as evidenced by recent statistics)... are there any programs/areas of the country to avoid outright?
3. How far back should I go when entering 'experiences' into eras? I currently set the cut-off at medical school and later, other than to mention a couple awards from undergrad in the 'misc' section....
As always, your opinions are much appreciated!
