Hi,
If I'm applying to two different residency programs, program A and program B, and rank them 1 and 2 respectively, but did not match in my first choice (program A ranked #1), would my chances of matching into program B be affected at all by me ranking it #2 instead of #1?
To clarify, I know that program B is highly desirable with let's say 20 positions. So, if 30 people ranked it #1, and the program ranked me as #18 (but I ranked program B as #2), would I match into program B? In other words, if program A does not rank me, would my ranking of program B as #1 or #2 have any affect on me matching into program B?
(I did a search but couldn't find exactly the same situation)
