Hello all,

As the ERAS submission approaches, I am deciding which internal medicine programs to apply to, so I thought I'd post here to get some advice. My stats:

Medical School: American MD. Mid Tier/Lower Mid Tier in Northeast.

Step1: 251

AOA: Invited to apply to Junior AOA (top 25% from first two years is invited), not selected. No word yet on Senior AOA.

Third Year Clerkship: Honors(IM, Surgery, Ob/gyn, Neuro, Psych); High Pass(Peds, FM, basically my first two rotations)

Fourth Year Clerkship: EM(No grade yet but likely high pass)

Research: 10 products (all non IM related): 6 abstracts (2 first author, 1 second author, 1 third author, 2 fourth author); 3 Posters (1 first author, 2 third author); 1 award for winning poster competition

Research experiences: 4
Volunteer experiences: 3

Based on the above stats, which programs would be good target programs for me? which programs would be reaches for me?

Let me know if I should include anything else.

Thanks in advance!

Great. You’ll get top program invites. There’s a WAMC for this though. Post there.

You'll get interviews everywhere good with some rejections from lower programs as yield protection

Do you guys think the IM residency directors at good institutions will care about a recent HP in emergency medicine. I just imagine applicants to these top programs getting honors in everything.

Yeah. Must university programs will be a reach. I'd apply to community shops in less desirable cities like St. Louis, Detroit, Kansas City, Cleveland, and Las Vegas.

Good luck!!
