I was wondering how significant is regional bias for matching into competitive specialities in different regions? For context I grew up and did undergrad in the southeast, and I currently attend a top school in the southeast. Would a strong application combined with networking and away rotations allow me to overcome this? Would it help if programs have a history of taking students from my school? Would taking a research year in a target region help? From what I’ve gathered reading several threads, it seems that it is generally difficult to breakout of the southeast and I was wondering if anyone could provide any insight.
