Hello,
I matched categorical General Surgery. Unfortunately, I have doubts all this time, and it finally hit me that the surgery lifestyle is not for me (I thought I could handle it). (I know I'm dumb, please spare me the harassment, I feel bad already). I had a rads rotation that I did after I submitted my list, and I absolutely loved it, so Im thinking applying to rads as a PGY1.
What are my chances of landing radiology spot in a big city (+500k). My stats are 23X/25X Step 1/2. My class rank is low and I am a DO. Do I have a shot or should I include a backup specialty like FM? I don't know what the stats are for DO grads... Please advise!
