I'd guess egotrip.
I totally don't buy that. Fl Hosp isn't even the best EM program in the city.....much less the state. If FL Hosp was honestly using 250 step 1 and step 2 as a cut off, not only would they probably not match anyone, they wouldn't be interviewing very many people. 2 years ago the charting the outcome showed fewer than 100 people with Step 1 >250. Geographically, you were looking at what? 20-40 people with those numbers applying in the SE? People with >250 on step 1, step 2 and research and applying to programs in the SE? What? 30 - tops.
Is it tougher now than 2 years ago? Yes. Was there magically a jump of over 30 points in the average in 2 years? No. Is a program that has only been around for 5 years that isn't even a level 1 trauma center somehow recruiting all AOA, 250+, multiple pubs caliber students away other programs in the South like Carolinas, Vandy, Emory, UAB, UNC, ORMC etc? No.
Mind you, I have nothing against Fl Hosp, I'm just calling BS on them recruiting 250+ Step 1/Step 2 with research.
