Two questions:
1. When applying for residency how important is class rank vs Overall GPA. Do residency programs look at both ? For example, say if your cGPA is 3.5 but your class rank is top 5% vs someone who has a 4.0 and is top 10%? who would be the more competitive applicant
2. How is the board part 1 graded? Specifically, i understand that there is a minimum passing score (74 or so) but is there a minimam for each section or is this an overall? So if you do poorly in one section can you make up for it in another section?
Thanks folks.
