Hello, I'm a P4 who is looking to apply this Fall for my PGy1.
Many of the posts advise applying to a range of programs to improve your chance of matching at a program. I'm afraid to ask a stupid question but I'm not sure how to tell if my list is varied enough as recommended.
I read that top programs are usually academic centers. But is that the only criteria? I'm afraid my list is mostly "reaches" without enough mid-level programs.
Does anyone have a set of criteria they use to ensure that they have a good range of programs or maybe how to stratify programs into tiers?
Thanks!
