If Urology is as competitive as you guys are saying, then my chances as an IMG are pretty much zero.
I was always under the impression that as regards surgical subspeciality residencies:
1) Ophthalmology
2) Orthopedics
3) ENT
4) Urology
But if Urology is on top of that list, then ****.
plz someone say it's not.
Ortho, Uro and ENT are definitely more competitive than optho at this point. This was probably not the case 5-10 years ago (optho had better reimbursements then, go figure 🙂 ). I think it's hair-splitting to rank them out-- suffice to say, ENT/Uro/ortho are probably next in competitiveness after derm/rad onc/plastics.
