As the thread question asks. Have not been getting any direct answers from my school so wanted to see what people here thought. I got to a t5 level school and wish to remain at a similar caliber of IM residency program as I am aiming to ultimately pursue cardiology in an academic setting.
Metrics:
Core Clerkships are P/F but all P.
SubI: Honors
1 IM elective graded at Honors
Step 2: 255
Research: This is where I am less certain. I have 2 abstracts/poster presentations published. Have 3 currently in submission/ review, one being a 1st author manuscript.
Everything else is subjective (PS, activities, etc) and I have been told ultimately doesn't matter as much, but would assume I am in the average range there as well.
Should I still attempt to focus in on t4 IM residencies or does research output disqualify me from these places?
