DO's ability to match into general surgery after the merger?
Always wanted to be a surgeon, MD or DO doesn't matter to me. But will this goal be attainable as a DO after the merger? I realize that in the past, DO's had an advantage through AOA surgery programs.
I have consistently done well on standardized testing (97-99th percentile MCAT) so I am confident I can do well on the USMLE and COMLEX. Of course I know that doesn't mean anything, but I'm willing to work towards my goal. I just want to know if it is decently attainable.
