According to NRMP match data, fellowship placement in GI for US allopathic grads is around 80%. For a US MD from a mid tier IM program (I don't know what's mid tier so let's say anywhere between 30-70 on doximity) with some research, the match data makes it sound like you have a pretty good shot at matching GI as long as you apply broadly and aren't picky about location. What am I missing here? And at a certain point, doesn't it not become a meritocracy and connections play a large role?
From reading the forums here, it seems like if you don't go to top IM program, have multiple pubs and 240+ on steps, then you don't even have a shot.
