Hello SDN,
I am already considering a Navy HPSP scholarship to help pay for my school (very expensive private school), and I'm trying to get a full picture of the risks and benefits post graduating from medical school
After the DO/MD residency merger, MD's will now be able to match into previously only AOA residencies. This means that some of the more competitive DO residency spots (I'm thinking ER or Surgery) will inevitably be taken by MDs. Will also having Navy residencies open to me make any statistical improvement in my odds of getting into a more competitive specialty?
Thanks,
