Never worked in Surgery - I don't know how they handle things. Can't ask - the PC thinks that I am a B%^&h - she could be correct.

I wouldn't know if you changed that in your application - I don't memorize things like this. If someone has both checked, we interview for categorical and will only rank them for categorical, unless during the interview they mention that they may be looking at the radiology, etc programs.
