You don't even know what residency is. First you say she isn't a doctor, then you say she is a resident. Which is it? Residents ARE doctors. They have earned their MD. So to say she'll be a doctor in 2 years but is in her residency is wrong.

Second, residency is for those who are specializing in something and have already earned their MD. You don't pick what you are going to study in your 3rd year, you do it right away. If you are going into a specialty like joint replacement, it can take you up to 7 years to complete your residency. It's not something you choose and take 2 years worth of stuff.

Seriously man, if you're going to make shit up, atleast research it. You have contradicted yourself so many times it's not even worth continuing. Just say you have no clue what she is learning but she plans on being a orthopedic surgeon someday.
