I have some questions about doing Neurology as a DO Medical Student.
Is there anything I should do as a DO student when preparing for my applications for Neurology programs..??
How important are preclinical and clinical grades to get in?
Like asides from the obvious Neurology elective rotations, personal statement, LOR from Neuro doctors I rotated with anything else?
Do I need very high COMPLEX/USMLE scores and high medical school grades??
Generally they say Neurology isn't so hard to get into? Does that mean it is easier to get into than Family med, internal med, psych, etc?
Also, just wondering if its true the average salary for Neuro. doctors starting out are 190k? Also I hear the demand is pretty good but wondering what you all in the field think.
Anything else I should know before planning a career in Neuro.
I do know its a field where you have more of a stronger interaction with your patients since your more focused on improving their independence and mobility after certain events.
Thanks.
