I will be applying to match in an orthopedic residency. My significant other lives near a program that's in a big city but it is not very prestigious. We have been long distance throughout medical school and she has a great job where she lives. We would like to start our lives together after medical school, if possible. Would it be a bad move to try and match there instead of a more prestigious program? What kind of repercussions would I run in to? In other words, how would my career be effected by matching at a non prestigious program vs a prestigious one.
Thanks!
