Hey all,

If anyone has done a residency or plans to, I'd like to pick your brain. I am 100% certain I will be pursuing a Neurological Residency post-DPT and was wondering how difficult it really is to be accepted. Would it be wise to attend a DPT program that has a residency program as well? Additionally, can top schools play more of a role here in terms landing a residency? I'm curious to know what residency programs truly look for in a recent DPT graduate (NPTE score, class rank, research, etc.) I've already looked at residencies off of APTA, but would love some of your first-hand advice.

Thanks!
