Question hello, i have a question regarding med school and resediancy programs in the
vascular/cardiovascular surgical feild.
right now i am pre-med and im looking into med schools.
my question is, does it matter what med school you go to, inorder to get into a
good resedency program...
right now im thinking about nj state med school... if you get really good grades
and what not, can you get into any resadency program, or does it really matter
where you went to school..?
thanks
Answer If you are near the top of your class in any good medical school you should have an excellent chance of getting into a top residency program. Obviously, the better the school (e.g. Johns Hopkins or Harvard) the better the choices. Good luck!!!
