Congratulations to all who just matched!
I'm applying IM/Peds next year, and already thinking about where I'd like to apply (have to start early to give my wife time to apply to masters programs so we have those lined up before the match). Found this info on UCSF's webpage about "top" IM/Peds programs... sound about right to you guys (generally speaking...). it is dated 2012, so pretty recent...

- What programs have been popular among UCSF applicants, or how should applicants go about considering programs?
Programs are really clustered on the East Coast and in the Mid-West. Well-known and highly thought of programs (in both categorical and med/peds) include the two Harvard programs (MGH, BWH), Hopkins (5-year program), UNC-CH, Penn, Duke, Michigan, Yale, Brown, Baylor and UCLA. Lesser-known from a categorical perspective, but highly thought of from a med/peds perspective include: Rochester, Baystate, Case-Western, U Chicago and UCSD.
