usuhs orthopedic residency

[srabulldog]

i was just wondering if anyone out there has any information about getting into orthopedic residency programs from USUHS. Specifically, i was wondering if there is a difference between the likelihood of getting a residency if you are in the army vs the air force. i know that the army has many more teaching hospitals which offer the residency (6 vs 1 in air force), and i would therefore assume that the army is "easier" then to get a residency in...

if anybody has any info about this, I'd really appreciate it!

Hi! I was wondering where I could find information about how many residencies each of the branches offer in different specialties. I've heard that several are very limited and was hoping to find that info out before choosing a branch. Thanks!

I have seen all this info somewhere. It's not online but in print somewhere at my school (USUHS). Let me find it and i'll let you know.
