Oye, SDN Internists and Subspecialists:
In order of importance - How much weight should I place on ABIM board pass rates when ranking a program for the Match? I just found out that my second choice (a well known Univ. program) has lower pass rates than several of the community programs I interviewed at (!).
The criteria I'm trying to juggle is: Location, Quality of Training, Family needs, Research/Fellowship opportunities, Hospital Environment, Reputation/Name, %FMG's, and now Board pass rates. (kind of in that order).
(Sorry if this question has been posted earlier...couldn't find the exact thread in the archives).
Thanks,
~Rick.
