Yes. GS doesn’t like being the back up choice. GS programs have been known to pass on applicants who’s apps are too obviously geared towards I6Will they though? CT surgery is a fellowship of GS unlike ENT, ortho, or urology which I could see GS being salty about. Maybe some uneducated PD that doesn’t know I6 CT has a match rate of like <50% but even that seems unlikely since basically every GS program has CT surgeons involved that will know about the I6 programs at least vaguely.
Also, an I6 CT applicant that ends up in GS is most likely going to be dedicated to their general surgery residency because they want to match into a CT fellowship, unlike a failed ortho applicant who is probably going to try to transfer to an ortho program or eventually drop out.
