I just started school a month ago, but being the person that I am (constantly looking to see what comes next) I've begun reading about different residency programs in the field I want to pursue. Yeah, I'm procrastinating. I can't take any more of Big Moore and his blue boxes. Anyways, I want to go into neurology, and when looking at some neurology residency program web sites they all say that they require (on average) one year of internal medicine. My question is this:
The match process that happens in the fourth year, would I go through that match for internal medicine and then do another round of applications for neurology residency programs once I've finished that year? Or would I apply straight away for neurology but somehow work in an agreement that there will be a year of internal med between graduation and when the residency begins?
I'm sure if I just chilled out and waited until this question was actually pressing I would by that time know the answer...but whatever...I like procrastinating.
