I was wondering what was meant by a "transitional year" for residencies. Is it always a negative when looking at match lists? From the little I know, it sounds like it's a last ditch choice when you don't get a residency match in the area you wanted. But then again, I thought that all optho residents had to do one transitional year in medicine first. Are they lumped in the same category? Any insight is greatly appreciated!!
