Hey Everyone,
When you break it[1] down, in family medicine, ~300 non-US IMGs matched in 2014 while ~600 non-US IMGs did not. When you look at surgery its 158 matched;150 unmatched or in internal medicine ~1,700 matched;~1,850 unmatched.
In summary, 1/3 of non-US IMG applicants who apply to fam med match and yet ~1/2 applicants in other specialties match...
does this mean family medicine is more competitive than IM or surg?!?!?
