I am a 1st year who is interested in OB/GYN and wondering about the stats of successful OB/GYN residents. What is the typical class rank? GPA? Board scores? Thanks
You are a 1st year where? FMG? DO? Allopathic US School? what type of program do you want the stats for? Academic? Community? Community with Academic Affiliation? Any state in particular? California will be harder than the Midwest.Dotsero said:I am a 1st year who is interested in OB/GYN and wondering about the stats of successful OB/GYN residents. What is the typical class rank? GPA?

In spite of a recent surge of interest in OB/GYN, it is not a difficult match. Passing scores with solid letters of recommendation from a US allopathic program should place you in a competitive position for the majority of programs.

community said:I am a DO applicant going through the process now. I applied to allopathic programs and have 18 interview offers at this point. I think that it is key to apply early when you go through the process. For me as a student, my focus was not always on stats, but developing the best clinical experience and knowledge base that I can, b/c that is what is really most important. I applied East Coast only b/c I am married and not willing to move my husband to some random location. I applied with COMLEX scores only. Do you have any specfic questions?
community said:There are actually some programs out there that see each applicant as an individual, and not just a set of stats. Unfortunately, it isn't easy to know what those programs are. I would tell your wife to apply as widely as possible, all tiers of programs but a high number of programs to ensure her success. I wish her the best!!!!
