So I graduated this past fall and applied to medical school this cycle and got 3 interviews which ended with 2 waitlists and 1 rejection.

I decided to apply to clinical research positions in anticipation of taking gap years since honestly I am really drained from this whole process and if I don’t get off the waitlist this cycle I want to take extra time off. I got 3 offers at very prestigious hospitals and the work is really exciting to me however they all request a 2 year commitment.

I would be starting towards the end of this month but I am wondering whether I should accept these positions since if I do end up getting off the waitlist at one of these schools I would likely have to quit and I’m honestly kind of scared to burn these bridges. Any advice would be appreciated.
