Re: reputation/training radhamesramos - 02-25-08 09:32 That is why I put Banner last, because the difficulty to get in...all four are good programs, acording to what I heard, and any order you rank them, and any you get, is going to be good.

What do you base your ranking on? Do you know the programs that well or is there a website where you can get information on which programme is better.

Re: reputation/training radhamesramos - 03-01-08 08:44 I guess everybody has different reasons in ranking their programs: some do it because programs itself, others ranks programs due to geographical situation (my case), others take account on other stuff, like Board passing rate, number of residents, payment, benefits, and even weeks of vacation... This varies person to person, and actually, the NRMP is conducting a survey in everybody who certified their lists, about the criteria people used to rank teir programs. I guess, the results would come later this year, and it will very interesting to see those results

The questions in the survey were simple and forward. I'd like to sneek a peek on what candidates answers are.

Re: reputation/training radhamesramos - 03-02-08 16:55 Naughty, naughty! LOL! No, I guess, we'll have to see the results with all its flaws and unfinished, unexplainable statistics, but it is the only weapon usmletomd.com will have to fill more space with info (just kidding!), actually the only tool that nrmp will have to write a senseless article about choices in the Match, when actually the situation of IMGs in the Match is getting everyday worse...but, hey, who cares about us?
