I am a 4th year AFHPSP and the reality of not probably not getting the residency that I want is sinking in. So question for current military interns-- Did any of you guys put a second choice? Some have said that its the worst idea ever, it makes you look uncommitted to your first choice, etc.
What do you guys think about this? I'd be interested in hearing anyone else's opinion on this as well....
In short, I am not very excited at the prospect of trying to start residency three years from now after a GMO/FS tour. My second choice would be FP and I think the IFB had something ridiculous like 40 spots making it very possible for me to get that residency. FM is something that I would be satisfied getting and doing as a profession. (especially bc I took time off after college dont relish the thought of 2+ more years lost before I complete my residency and start a family)
Thanks in advance,
Megan
