I am an AMG from a top 40 NIH medical school with a 21x Step 1 and 21x Step 2 score/ pass on Step 2 CS.
I matched into a Preliminary IM program and did not secure an advanced spot in Anesthesiology despite 5 Categorical and 4 Advanced interviews. I am obviously going to reapply the next cycle during my intern year for PGY2 - 'R' spots. Does anyone have any experience doing this? How competitive is it? Is it difficult to do? Aside from striving for good LoR from the PD in the first couple months, I am trying to study for and take Step 3 and do well before Intern year begins. What else can I do to be more competitive?
Any advice/comments would be appreciated! I have my heart set on Anesthesiology and deep down, I am not ready to let go of this dream.
