Howdy all.
I am a U.S. allopathic grad applying for Anesthesiology this year. I've had good interviews at my top choices considering the kind of candidate I am. My interview season's was all done and I'm all set to enter the match when my lab director comes to me and asks me to continue my research for an extra year.
I want to take the year off for a variety of reasons. Here's my question though: Would taking a year off negatively impact my chances of getting equally good Anesthesiology residency interviews the following year? Would suddenly withdrawing from the match anger a lot of programs?
I know this is case by case and depends on the residency coordinator but overall what's your impression?
