Hi everyone. So I just submitted Eras last week and now I’m having cold feet. I was torn between EM and general surgery. I loved my surgery rotation but it was at a community hospital with no residents, so I didn’t get exposed to how my life would be during residency. They didn’t make us read...

I have gone on 13/15 interviews and am still unable to ascertain how family/pregnancy friendly residency programs are. I am not planning on starting my family until after residency, but I want to know I will be supported if “life finds a way.” Some programs have policies for third trimester and...
I was wondering how invested EM residency programs are with the EM applicants at their associated medical school?

Hey all! I'm a student at a US MD school that's super interested in EM, and Chicago is a city that seems to be a great spot for an EM residency. I know for a while now U Chicago, which is located near the South Side, refrained having a level 1 trauma center to avoid trauma overload and...
Its easy to see what the "average" accepted EM resident brings to the table in terms of Step1/2, research, etc. However, does anyone have a good grasp on what the guys getting into the TOP EM programs tend to have on their application that ultimately leads to them getting in???
Here's why I...

Hi,
I've read some great things about Stanford EM residency. I've read many of the threads here on SDN.
I have two questions:
I've heard that Stanford / Santa Clara has been going through a shakeup where the EM doctors did not get their contracts renewed. Does anyone have more information on...
I will be taking my Step 1 in July and am starting to work on my CV. I am currently a student at SGU in Grenada, which I know it becomes a bit more competitive when going for an Emergency Residency. I just want to present my qualities as best as I can. My past experience is an Emergency Dept RN...

As a DO if you score over 240 on USMLE step one, do you think its still important to take USMLE step 2 on top of COMLEX step 2 if you want to match into an ACGME residency?
Thanks

What non-EM electives do you think would be useful to take 4th year (maybe ones that EM residency training doesn't give enough practice in)?
I've already done a SICU elective and am scheduled for a radiology and an EKG one, but I might still have some room for a few more 2 and/or 4 week. I've...
I am interested in peds EM. I know you can either do EM residency and peds fellowship or you can do peds residency and EM fellowship. How likely is it for a DO to get these fellowships? And which route would be "easier"?

My step 1 score was 204. I attend a reputable high ranked allopathic school.
I have already pulled the NRMP statistics and understand the information they give. My question is in regards to "competitiveness" and likelihood of matching in a specific location.
I know that it is subjective and...
I'm constantly going back and forth between Beth Israel Deaconness and Emory as my number one. I just want to hear different opinions on these two programs, and what y'all would do if you had to pick between the two. Here is my personal list of pros and cons.
