Please advise.. Applying to residency with several red flags.
I am a 4th year DO student who is interested in psychiatry with several red flags--LOA for 6 month and low board scores (no failures in boards/courses/clerkship).
FYI, I took a LOA for 6 months due to personal issues (family illness/ financial difficulties/relationship problem with a partner who has borderline personality disorder).
I had been dealing with these issues for more than three years before I finally decided to take a LOA before breaking down. My grades started going down...
Please advise.. Applying to residency with several red flags.
