Not sure about IM, but here's a post-Match poll from the Neurology thread
http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=102105

It's more comparable to IM than ENT or other surgical specialties involved in the Early Match (if you read those threads, many people went beyond #5 and some didn't match).

Don't sweat it. I have been recruited from all of my top five choices so I think the programs are in the same boat as we are, trying to get people to go. I have also gotten a personal email from the PD himself (my number 1 choice) wanting me to go there. If you have expressed interest in a particular program and got a positive response, you should be fine (at least I hope so). Most residents at my program got their first, with a few that got their second choice, their first choice being amazing places.
