You constantly hear: go with your gut.
So my current #1 is in a place far from anything or anyone I know. My gut likes it. My common sense says "Ummm...this is too big of a decision to rely on your tempermental tummy. What do you know about this place anyway?"
For those that have ventured outside of their comfort zone for residency, do you think you would have been happier closer to home?
For those that stayed close, do you wish you had taken the risk?
If I am thinking about a career in academic medicine, should I skip the 'gut' feeling and go for the place with more resources and a better reputation?
I'll probably add more questions as I think of them.
