why would you guys apply to Wisconsin? i don't think it's IMG friendly at all. they want those who will stay there and practice medicine

u have a v gd credential raddick,
some ppl prefer the 1/3 approach .. meaning, out of 100 programs: 1/3 is top, 1/3 is universities or communities w/ fellowship or communities that support u for fellowship, and 1/3 is communities w/o fellowship ..

good luck !

@ fcbarcelona
I applied to a few weak community programs as a back up (about 4-5 IMG friendly programs) but honestly I'm gonna be really pissed off if i'll end up matching there

@raddick: Your creds are fantastic! Highest CK score I ever heard of...

I am sure u r going to match to a good uni program!
