It is my understanding that you have to do a PGY1 year in IM before applying to most neurology programs, correct? What percentage of these programs are this way versus 4 year integrated ones, and how can I tell on FREIDA (i.e. do I look at how many years the program is, 3 vs 4-is that it?) ? On FREIDA or elsewhere, does that mean that I am looking for 1-year transitional programs, and then during that year I have to apply to neurology programs? If someone could clarify this for me that would be great.
Somewhat-related question to a select few that might be able to answer this: Why do some transitional year programs not take on F-1 visa OPT students? It costs the program nothing, is barely a hassle (paperwork wise), and makes perfect sense to students needing a visa. Really confused about this one, seems more of a political decision than an administrative one.
