Hi-
Here's the situation: my boyfriend (army HSPS) and I are both MS3s, and it feels like applying to residency is just around the corner. I am a civilian, and we are not married if that is relevant. I know his match will be before mine, so I can try to tailor my match list to where he will be, but does anybody have advice or experience in the possibility of us matching to even the same state? He is going to do IM, and I am interested in ObGyn. He has excellent board scores, mine are average. He has to do his residency at an army facility, which is pretty limiting for me already because there are often not many civilian residencies in the same area, and I guess I just worry that my averageness is going to be the thing that separates us. Any advice?
Thanks.
