E*******9 发帖数: 152 | 1 So, I am thinking of prelim and categorical IM. I know it is not wise to
apply both to the same program. However I am not sure how I should decide
which programs for prelim and which ones for categorical?
Here are my 2 questions:
1. My first instinct is:
community hospitals for prelim and university or university-affiliated
hospitals for categorical?
Any comments on that?
2. Do I need to apply for prelim now or should I wait to apply till I have
info from the advanced programs I'm applying?

because you will compete with those Derm/Rads/Anesth candidates. |

I heard that the transition program is even harder than the prelimilary
program.

positions. Yes forget about transitional year.

surgery is so tough that I am too scared to apply for them.
Thanks again, Eric!
