Can I get into a good residency in a low-ranked field such as pediatrics with just average grades and no research? I am looking to get into Baylor COM's pediatric residency program.

i gots your rankings:
and yes, each field in this chart is inherently superior to any to its right
What is the typical profile of someone who gets into a competitive pediatric residency?
Oldbear, so what WAS your pediatrics residency profile like and where'd you go, if you don't mind me asking?

transitional year is superior to ophtho? that's news to me
Although IM has a higher average board score than peds, I believe peds is actually slightly more competitive due to fewer spots.
Board scores aren't everything.
I haven't started medical school yet so this may be a stupid question but I was looking at the rankings chart and it has neurology and Internal medicine as separate specialties. Isn't neurology a sub-specialty of Internal medicine or am I wrong?
No, but it'll impress your in-laws.Ok, so this begs my noobish question, what is going to make me the better doctor? Like, is a more competitive residency withing a certain field going to make me a superior saving machine?
Apparently better than mine since I only got a fairly non-competitive pediatric residency spot a long time ago. Since then, my career has been nothing short of disastrous. Fortunately, I got this gig as an SDN moderator to improve my lot in life.
