montes close enough to top 25... and they have many other elite matches like cleveland clinic cardiology...

True but just pointing out monte is considered "mid tier."

The whole idea of predetermined "tiers" is ridiculous. And it's based on the ridiculous notion that other people's opinions of a program are more important than your own with respect to location, diversity, opportunities as a resident, and opportunities for career advancement. There are several programs considered "top tier" by the SDN community that I would not consider applying to even if I had the marks.

I genuinely feel for people who choose to spend 3-6 years of their prime in boring places in pursuit of "prestige" especially when those people could have gone to great programs considered "mid" or even "low" tier in incredible locations.
