I'm hearing mixed things...
Say you are applying to two specialties, one of which requires a separate application to pre-lim IM. How in the heck to you rank (back-to-back of one specialty, ie continguous, or one then the other?) and do you decrease your odds of matching by going the multi specialty route?
Basically, I don't get how ranking would work...You'd have a separate rank list for prelim IM, and two other separate rank lists for the two specialties? or one list in which you can either alternate, i.e. "specialty x, then specialty y, then specialty x, they specialty y... or just specialty y a bunch of times in a row and x a bunch of times in a row?
