I have done a quick research which can be used for future reference..
The NRMP data does not show the full picture, as it only shows match statistics for candidates who registered with NRMP (ie got interviews). I took ERAS application submitted data and NRMP match data to show a more clear picture.
1. Cardiology
Total Applications 1780; Positions 1045 (58.5%)
USMD 689; matched 549 (79.6%)
DO 204; matched 103 (50.5%)
IMG 887; matched (43.8%)
2. GI
Total Applications 1034; Total Positions 590 (57%)
USMD 436; matched 352 (80.7%)
DO 139; matched 66 (47.5%)
IMG 459; matched 166 (36%)
3. Hematology-Oncology
Total Applications 1009; Total positions 638 (63.2%)
USMD 412; matched 336 (81.5%)
DO 92; matched 64 (69.5%)
IMG 505; matched 237 (58.3%)
4. Pulmonary-Critical Care
Total Applications 1357; Total positions 657 (48.4%)
USMD 461; matched 323 (70%)
DO 228; matched 92 (40.3%)
IMG 668; matched 240 (35.9%)
Even though PCCM looks very competitive overall, I am unsure if the average candidate applying to cardiology/GI candidate is very stronger/selective with better resume OR if PCCM is becoming more competitive.
*NRMP provided separate data for US-IMG and FMG but ERAS data only has IMG, hence I added NRMP US-IMG and Foreign together as IMG
mind sharing the source for the data? Want to run the numbers myself.
