So, I have been researching Peds programs to do my auditions/apply to for residency but I haven't seen that many recent threads on any east coast programs. I was wondering which east coast programs would be considered top/middle/bottom tier that take DOs as well as if anybody had any good info/experiences to share? Also, I was wondering what my chances would be at some of the programs, roughly, since my USMLE Step 1 isn't that great but my COMLEX is pretty good? Any thoughts? Thank you!

Look at each program and see if there are many DOs as current residents. In peds, I have not experienced much of a bias of MD over DO. I would also add Baystate Med Center in your list.
