Hello all,
Looking for any input and/or advice that is available regarding the matter. There is an option at the school I attend to obtain a dual degree with a Masters in Anatomy. It requires an extra 11 credits or so outside the core DO curriculum and is designed to be completed by graduation. The other option I am interested in is being a TA for our surgical skills course which is a large time commitment in itself, and I don't foresee it being possible to do both.
My question is would it be worth it to obtain the MSA with the top two fields I'm interested in being Orthopedics and General Surgery? Will it be a benefit when applying for residencies in those fields?
Any help or info is greatly appreciated!
