Quick question here.
Some background - I graduated in 2015, did a GPR and worked in private practice for ~5 years. Decided to pursue OMFS and have already secured a Non-cat internship for July 2022-2023. CBSE is already taken.
At what point should I apply in PASS/MATCH?
Option 1) Apply in May 2022 (Feb 2023 match) - will need to get internship LORs in the first 2 months, and submit application by Sept?
Option 2) Apply in May 2023 (Feb 2024 match) - will have a gap of 1 year between internship and residency
What have other people usually done in the past?
