I'm entering med school in 2005. Just a question for all you current med students. What percentage of med students do research?
And if you want to even make a try for a competitive residency (any of the R.O.A.D ones) if you haven't 1st authored does that pretty much automatically nix your application?
I did absolutely 0 research in undergrad and I figure going into med school I have a handicapp if I start research when I'm an M1. Has anyone out there with no undergrad research exp gone on to 1st author?
Thanks~!
