I'm a sophomore in college and was wondering what are the easiest and hardest matches?

The unfilled stats are 21/1073 in 2002
and 6/1001 in 2001
So we're talking 2-3% or so unfilled programs. Compare that with IM or FP or Peds and EM is still quite competitive.
I think with the ?unfortunate? trend of medical students using lifestyle as their main criteria for residency choice, EM/Anes/Rads/PM&R will continue to be competitive (or get more competitive).
