Hey everyone, I was looking for a bit of input on something.
I'm an MS4, and I really want to go into equity research. I've been investing for a long time, and realized during medical school that I like investing a lot more than I like medicine. Right now I'm applying to jobs at investment banks, hedge funds, and venture capital firms. I tried talking to my deans about applying to jobs and my school is very unsupportive of that path.
I ended up applying to residencies last year in Psych. At that time I was still kind of undecided - I really love Psychiatry, I just like finance more.
Now, the psych program at my school told me they have ranked me as their top applicant this year. Would it really screw them over if I didn't withdraw? Or does it just go to the next applicant on their rank list.
If I do withdraw, a friend of mine told me I absolutely have to tell my Dean's office about this, and tell the program directors that I am withdrawing. Is this absolutely necessary, or can I just withdraw officially via NRMP and not submit a rank list?
Any thoughts?
