At the cost of sounding like a narcissist, I speak with honesty when I say that my parents are extremely well connected physicians operating out of the NY/NJ area in the states in high positions in their respective fields. I have been assured that I will be guaranteed a residency in my chosen field upon graduation regardless of the school I graduate from. I have applied for my first year MD/DO round and have been rejected from every single school. Should I wait a year and reapply with a low 3 gpa and high 20's mcat (+ EXCELLENT internships/shadowing) again, or should I use the resources available to me and go to the Caribbean and get the residency I am guaranteed. What else should I consider aside from residency?
