I was wondering if anyone could tell me how hard it is to get an internship or residency at the AMC in New York? Are all internships equally hard to get? Or would a well known one like the AMC have a lot more applicants?
I am concerned because I am probably going to vet school abroad (an AVMA accredited school for sure) and will not have things like class rank or GPA on my application since grading is done differently there. I know that great LORs, class rank, and grades are highly valued in an internship application, so would not having certain stats rule me out of getting an interview? Are applicants from certain schools considered better at all? How many applicants typically apply to these internships? If the school I choose is likely to have a negative effect on my future application for internships/residencies, then I think I would have to reconsider my choice of vet school...
