Approximately, how many CA-1 spots are there in the match annually? Is there a list of programs that offer CA-1 spots? How difficult is it to land these spots during your intern year - is it the same difficulty as applying for the pgy-1 anesthesia spots right out of medical school or more/less competitive? Looking for some info on this subject. Thanks.
