Is plastic surgery a competitive field?

Plastic surgery is the most competitive field in surgery nowadays whether you apply after medical school or after a general surgery residency. Post medical school have always been competitive. The match rate has range from 50 to 65% (some years are less.) The two most competitive specialty when you are applying as a medical student are: plastic surgery and dermatology. Post general surgery residency, plastc surgery is now the most competitive sub-specialty. An applicant is now required to finish 5 years general surgery residency before you embark your training in plastic surgery. To make matters worst, they will be making the plastic surgery fellowship into a 3 year mandatory training starting in 2010. The match rate used to be 65% a decade ago, but the match rate currently is around 35%. There were around 265 applicants for 93 spots in 2007. Moreover, the applicants nowadays are extremely competitive. Not only they take into account your grades and USMLE scores, they also take into account your ABSITE (surgery in-service exam) scores. Some of the previous applicants had multiple fellowships, such as in burn, hand or craniofacial surgery. Plastic surgery is now more competitive than getting in to the pediatric surgery fellowships.


What is the Plastic surgery job outlook?

Plastic surgery is very competitive with a difficult training residency. You would need to first graduate from medical school at the top of your class, then complete either general surgery (5-7 years) followed by plastic surgery (3 years) or enter Integrated Plastics out of medical school (6+ years). Both plastics fellowships and integrated plastics residency are amongst the most competitive and difficult to obtain spots in medicine. To be competitive you'll need top board scores, excellent clinical grades, good letters of recommendation from plastic surgeons and research publications.

You got a sat score of 2020 600 critical reading 750 math 670 writing you are going to apply for admission in mit caltech and Stanford you are an international student what are your chances?

Those school are really hard to get into -- no matter your scores. I believe that your math scores are solid -- but you need to boost up your CR and W scores . For thoses school, those scores are low. But no matter your scores -- you need to have other credentials. Your admissions essay has to be stellar and your grades should be as close to perfect as possible, and your courses have to be hard. The fact that you are an international student (depends where you are from) can give you a boost in the admissions process. Hope what I say helps
