Hi. How can applicants make themselves as competitive as possible for fellowship? Given the relative inflexibility of internal medicine curricula, and also how early one needs to apply for fellowship in order to begin immediately after residency, there seems to be few ways to stand out.

Of course, I'm referring to factors that are in the applicant's control once fellowship begins (i.e. as opposed to things like educational pedigree, advanced degrees, etc.) I know research is key, as always, but how can 2-6 months (if that) help you out?

I'll be starting internship in a few months, and I'd like to get a start ASAP. Any help will be appreciated.


Thanks.
