I am reading all these threads about rank order for programs, and I am also dealing with same issue. I am the sort of person to NOT focus so much on program name/reputation over best fit. So does it matter whether a resident trains at MGH over Emory?
Most programs, to me, felt largely similar and I felt one could be an outstanding radiologist provided individual effort is applied. At many of these top programs, some of the attendings trained at institutions with "lesser" reputations. So shouldn't program ranking primarily be based on best fit and much less on reputation/prestige?
