I know it's impossible to quantify but roughly how competitive is the Indiana University pediatrics residency?

I never really looked at going that far west for personal reasons, so I can't comment from experience. But you could look at the interview invite thread to see who got invites, then look at the other programs they got. That could give you an idea. Also, I'd suggest asking a peds mentor at your school who's had experience counseling students applying to peds.

Good luck!

Not too competitive. I was an average applicant at a state medical school (Oklahoma) and got an interview. Strong program though so I'd go if you're offered.

Thank you both for the replies.
