Default How Would You Rank These East Coast TYs/Prelims


SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
It's getting to that time of the year, when rank lists are started to be constructed.

Figured this could be interesting and am curious to see what people's thoughts are.

Around Boston, I've got:
Brockton TY
Carney TY
Carney Prelim
Lemuel Shattuck TY
St. Elizabeth's Prelim

Around Philly, I've got:
Christiana Care TY
Christiana Care Prelim
Lehigh Valley TY
Reading Hospital TY

How would you rank these options, and why?

It's always very hard for others to rank programs for you. What did YOU think of them? What was your impression when you interviewed there? What's important to you? - location, academics, call schedule, benefits/perks, salary, research, mentorship, resident comraderie?

Reading
Christiana ty
Lehigh
Chistiana py

As for why, mostly flexible/cush reputation, electives, and location

I doubt the opinions are going to be much different than the ones you asked for a few months ago.

I really liked the program at Brockton and am having a VERY hard time figuring out how to rank it vs. the TY at Carney.

There probably aren't many people here that have interviewed at the same programs you've listed...so it'll be hard to adjust your rank list according to other people's recommendations, if that's what you're after.
