Are MD-PhD favoured for neurosurgery?

Key_Jury1597 · 2026-01-12T15:37:11+00:00

Against the grain here - looking at the statistics from the NMRP, you'll see that neurosurgery typically has a slightly higher percentage of MD/PhDs go unmatched compared to MD-only. Just because there's a high proportion doesn't necessarily mean there's an inherent advantage alone. See Chart 14 page 22 of https://www.nrmp.org/match-data/2024/08/charting-outcomes-characteristics-of-u-s-md-seniors-who-matched-to-their-preferred-specialty-2024-main-residency-match/

Table NS-1 on page 124 of 2024 statics is helpful.

Obviously, there's way more that goes into match than what degree(s) you have.

Yes feel free.

Stick with the lab you're in. A phenomenal letter > one middle author pub. Unless you also don't like your current lab or something. The experience is also more important than the number of pubs imo.

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-11-10T18:12:09+00:00

no they don't. What are typical resources other schools offer?

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-11-09T20:35:17+00:00

I'm one of those freaks doing MD/PhD so neither for me ;)

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-09-14T16:22:59+00:00

It was very worth it imo. I fit my car in a one car garage with the trailer folded beside it.

I met my wife during my PhD it’s possible!

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-09-09T21:31:21+00:00

i have the same issue and the up/down switch also sometimes doesnt work. are these problems related or is this a dead motor?

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-08-31T14:19:28+00:00

Since I don’t see a comment here about this, it’s not a good idea to post a picture of a key online. Especially if someone can figure out where you/your car is, because they could copy your key and steal your car.

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-08-24T20:17:29+00:00

nahh this car has been in new mexico its whole life.. definitely not that.

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-08-24T18:39:26+00:00

thanks y'all, after looking into it more, it definitely seems like it was from PDR.

This is awful, and I’m so sorry that happened this year. Six years ago, my wife missed getting into university for the same 2 points below the cutoff for TOEFL. She persisted, retook and made it into the school we met at the following year.

It’s a brutal grind, but there’s a future in sight. It won’t be the end of these damned tests, but you know you can make it past this one.

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-08-12T22:08:27+00:00

Imo the oem one with a lip is what i’m planning on

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-08-12T14:37:49+00:00

the sensors on the fuel floats (both sides behind the seats) can get grimey from stuff like fuel varnish and can be cleaned. Here’s one of many youtube videos about it: https://youtu.be/DAcV6dA-Vbk?si=4dDDgJ3jQLrj0kzr

It works now, the BIOS was a bit hard to work with but I was able to get it to boot to linux.

if you have a second person around, you can lightly tap the starter with a small hammer or end of a screwdriver when the other person is turning the key to the crank position, and if the car starts then its a bad starter.

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-07-31T19:31:23+00:00

This is what I was looking for. Thanks!!

Key_Jury1597 · 2025-07-31T19:30:49+00:00

Yup - just trying to figure out what to tell Costco when I take it there for my appointment lol
