Thank you so much for your response! I guess I didn't quite explain my question well enough. I am pretty sure I will only be participating in the ACGME match, however, about half of the programs I have interviewed at are in both matches this year. So I was wondering if the charting outcomes data would be reasonably accurate, or if it would be a bit off as half of the programs are essentially only taking half a class out of the ACGME match.
So the question is, if someone is only in the ACGME match and they have 10 ranks, but 5 of the programs are participating in both matches, is this still as strong of a position as charting outcomes makes you believe?
I know this is kind of a strange question and no one knows the real answers, I just am trying to gauge what a "safe" number of ranks would be in the ACGME match, and how to account for programs that are taking half from the AOA match and half from the ACGME match.
