Hey guys just wanted to see if anyone could answer my question:
If I am lucky enough to have been invited for interviews to top tier programs, what are my chances of matching to one of these programs if I only rank them (leaving out lower-mid tier programs)?
For example if my rank list looks something like this:
1. Mass gen
2. Johns hopkins
3. Stanford
4. Uchicago
5. Northwestern
6. UMich
7. UWash
I am very interested in these programs but should have thought more carefully about the lower-mid tier programs I have been invited to because I have absolutely no interest in those programs. I know the ones I listed are very competitive programs so I feel like I may be setting myself up for failure if I only rank these top tier programs. Can anyone with experience comment on this?
My stats are 250+/260+, AOA, all honors in clerkships + research in undergrad with 2 pubs, no stellar ECs during med school, lower-mid tier med school . + assume I have a decent interview, what are my chances of matching if I just rank these 7 programs? thanks
