Hello SDN!
As an OMSIII, I've already started the process of applying through VSAS...but I recently heard that what I'm doing might hurt me.
My interests are still really spread out, and my top 2 specialties are Anesthesiology and Oncology (probably through IM there). Would it be bad of me to apply for and interview for both? They're honestly neck-and-neck and I could be perfectly happy doing either. Should I drop one to focus on the other to increase my chances?
EDIT - for more qualifiers....
Anesthesia will be the majority of my DO match....IM more towards the MD match. So far, I don't have any overlap in specialty/location (i.e. all my Anesthesia programs are in different cities compared to my IM's).
