Would love some advice from the knowledgeable people on SDN!
My wife matched at Wash U in St Louis on Friday. I'm currently a MS3, and obviously now WashU is at the top of my list. I know WashU is an amazing program and competitive to get into. I'm at a top 20 US MD school, 250s step 1, Honors on all clerkships except for a High Pass on Family Medicine. Doing some research but never published.
I've been thinking about doing an away at WashU, but have gotten mixed advice about if this would be helpful or hurtful. Besides my wife, I don't have any ties to Missouri or the Midwest, so I would like to show interest in the area.
Do you think I have a shot at Wash U Neuro? Should I do an away rotation? Anything else you guys think I should do to improve my chances?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
