Question for those familiar with this kind of program - what is a competitive board score for a triple-board program in peds/psych/child-adolescent psych?

I am not sure what is competitive but I did average on the boards and got interviews at 6/10 of the programs. I ended up just sticking with peds alone but I think that I would have matched to any of the programs if I ranked them more highly. I think the main thing that they are looking for is why do you want to be a triple boarder, if you have a good answer for that you should be fine.

What made you chose peds over triple boards?
