Hi all,
As the title states, unmatched cards this year...
Im an amg at a mid tier im program. Passed all steps on first try with scores 240+. Research includes abstracts at acc, nla and TCT (first author on all of them) . One first author pub currently in process. No other red flags on my app and reportedly very strong lors. Applied to 40ish programs and got ten interviews so not sure exactly what went wrong.. maybe not enough research or applying too narrowly... Was told that I interview well fwiw.
Anyway, I was offered a chief resident position at my home institution as well as a one year non invasive (non acgme accredited) cardiology fellowship. Both of these options sound reasonable but was wondering if anyone has insight in to which would be the better/higher yield option for successfully matching in to cardiology this upcoming year (planning on applying very broadly) .
Thanks
