Hey everyone! So I have been attemting to do some research on Small animal surgery residencies, but I wanted to hear from other who have actually gone through the matching process and surgical residencies. I have heard surgical residencies are competitive, but what all does that entail? What GPA should I have from veterinary school? Should I have done research/be published? What are the admission stats or is there a good resource that has this info? I appreciate any info or advice you guys can give me.
Just a bit about my background, I am currently a 4th year student in a food animal track. However, I like working with all species and I have discovered that I really have a passion for surgery. I also have an HPSP scholarship and will most likely be doing a residency through the military if I pursue one (that probably changes things a bit). I really like military working dogs and I would like to choose a surgical residency if the army let's me. Just let me know what you guys think. Thank you all in advance!
