I've heard from many that md/phds match really well and even if u r coming from a non top tier md/phd program u will have no diffuculty matching at big names like harvard, hopkins, etc.
is this still true? Lemme give an example. A is a Md/phd from school X(top10). B is also from school X(top10) but is MD only. A has 220 step 1, mostly high passes, no AOA, limited extracurriculars. B is AOA, mostly honors, 245 step 1, and many volunteering/extracurricular stuff. Now, if both applied to the same competitive residency like ENT at Hopkins, which would be more likely to be selected?
