Most people know that GI and Cardiology are "competitive." But for medical students who are thinking of IM mainly as a gateway for fellowships, it might be useful if people can comment on the relative competitiveness of these fellowships. Is it just as difficult as matching into Radiology or Dermatology? Perhaps comparable to matching into EM? Can anyone provide a ballpark estimate of exactly how bad the competition is for these spots? It would suck if some people go into IM thinking they can get a fellowship if it turns out being very difficult.
PS: How about Nephrology? I know it is less competitive than GI, Cards, and Allergy, but again, a ballpark idea would be useful.
