Orthopedic Surgeon

<p>All 126 US accredited MD schools are excellent and will provide you with the opportunity to match into an orthopedic surgery residency assuming you are in the top 1-5% of medical students on your standardized tests, get honors in your clinical rotations as well as do research in orthopedics during medical school and then of course do well on your residency interviews.</p>

<p>Given in one of your other posts you mention getting a 1250 on the PSAT (<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1613438-i-don-t-mind-constructive-criticism.html#latest”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1613438-i-don-t-mind-constructive-criticism.html#latest&lt;/a&gt;), I recommend focusing on getting into college and not getting ahead of yourself with medical school and orthopedics since there is a very high chance that you won’t end up in medical school (most freshman pre-meds don’t end up applying and only about 45% of applicants do get in and that’s even when talking about high achieving kids at top schools) and then among medical students, the majority come into medical school thinking one specialty and leave doing another.</p>

<p>EDIT: Left your post open in another tab and was about to close it when I noticed you were in dual enrollment. Be wary that those dual enrollment classes will be listed on your transcript and factored into your final GPA when you apply to medical school.</p>
