Hi. I'm a 4th year US IMG from SGU applying to EM this year. I really want to do EM, but based on how competitive it's gotten, I know I need a back-up. My plan is to apply for Prelim IM spots, so that I would be able to try again next year.
That said, is it a bad idea to apply for both of these at these at the same hospital? Would applying for Prelim IM somehow convey that I'm not committed to EM? I know this subject has been talked about, but I've heard so many conflicting opinions, including from my school who said it was ok.
I was wondering what people in a similar situation ended up doing and why.
Thanks!
