I think around 250 HPSP students will graduate each year and 90% will do GMO in order to increase their chance and also to be considered for PGY-2 positions especially RAD, Ortho, and Derm. So, for an average student what is the advantage of doing GMO in the first place? In my understanding there are only few PGY-2 positions and majority will apply for these limited positions. It is really doesn't give sense to do GMO unless you have high stat (GPA, research, USMLE/COMLEX).
