This abundance of statistics is misleading. They don't take into account people using FM as a back-up, number of attempts, years since graduation, scores, applicants needing visa, etc. The best indicator is the charting the outcomes img section on the nrmp website.

Keep in mind everyone that those who applied to FM as backup and got matched into IM are still considered unmatched for FM. The stats are not that reliable.

Peds and IM offered IVs to AMGs before Fam med started so hopefully we will hear soon as it seems like IMGs are starting to hear back in those specialties

@snowdoc8839 I think the spreadsheet compiles this forum and USMLE-forum stats together. Makes sense to combine it because in the long run there should be more stats, and a spreadsheet is easier to update than continuing to copy/paste the list we started here. I find this forum is easier to follow than the other one.

Hang in there snowdoc Smile we're in the same boat (re-applicants). I remember you from last year. We'll get through this

same, quiet day. Had a flurry of rejections one week ago. This week has been quiet so far. Hope they aren't done handing out IVs
