Hello everyone,
I have heard A LOT of smoke being blown around about "how competitive Anesthesiology is becoming," but have never heard anyone surmise about what is a "strong" Step I score to be a competitive candidate.
That said, WHAT IS A COMPETITIVE SCORE for the next few years? Please don't say "no one knows" or "265 is strong," that goes without saying.
All the other specialties have some sort of parameter that is set in terms of Step I (Emergency = >225, Radiology = >235, Derm = >245, Internal Medicine = >205, etc.) and I think it would be wise to consider this in terms of anesthesia.
Aren't there 1100+ spots in the match?
What do you guys think? I'm hoping for a "frank" discussion of this topic (excuse the pun), in light of the recent surge in anesthesiology's popularity. Do the top students pursue it, etc.?
Thanks, Frank Caoul 😀
