Hey everyone... I'm still young in the process (going into sophomore year) and I've been very curious about going into medicine as an officer (i.e. paid med school while fulfilling a service requirement). I like the idea of serving but I'm worried about restricitons on residencies or not training me properly at military hospitals, etc. Anybody have any feedback? 🙂

Yeah, the military medicine forum will be a better place to talk, but the Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences (USUHS or sometimes called USU) is one way to do that, or you can apply for a Health Professions Scholarship (HPSP) at any med school. HPSP might be a way to avoid the residency restrictions you sound concerned about.
