I didn't honor my AI at my first choice program (1st choice geography, in long-distance relationship now). I was evaluated primarily by residents and have heard that whether or not the residents like you will make or break an acceptance. Is this a death blow?
I think in general I'm just not assertive enough in the the inpt setting and came off as pretty aloof. My evals were "good" = average.
In general, I'm a pretty average applicant, honoring only the FP clerkship in 3rd year. My dean says I'm in the middle to middle-upper half of the class. Boards score is really good though but I hear no one cares about Step 1 so much.
Not sure why I'm writing all of this. Part of me is looking for hope and part of me is needing someone to say that I should shift my focus elsewhere.
