Hey all,
Checked the search and couldn't find any great answers so thought I'd ask here. In the midst of shaping my PhD research and really just trying to see how urology looks at MD/PhD and how competitive I'd be in urology vis a vis the internal medicine based specialties to try to shape my PhD (which may take a slightly urology related bent). I'm on my urology rotation right now and didn't expect to be as interested in it as I am.
My stats- MD/PhD at a top school (harvard, hopkins, stanford type)
249 step 1
Would love to hear anyones perspectives on how MD/PhD affects urology and how much which med school you attend matters for urology as I've read mixed things. I'd ideally like to stay at a large research type school and wanted to see how tough getting into academic urology at a big school would be with my current background as my step score is decent, but not great.
