Well, I only know about the peds program and that's filled up. So you are probably talking about IM.
Anyways... I liked the people there a lot. I think the pedds program is decent and the PD is really trying to make it a great little program.

The area is very nice, so no problem there. In general I think the hospital has a good reputation amongst local Brooklynites (at least according to some reactions that I got from friends when I told them I will be working there). As I said I can't tell you anything about other programs.

My scores were 98/99. I have GC and about 6 mts of USCE. I also had US LOR. When I signed my prematch I didn't have the result of CS yet.

I only applied to peds programs in NY. I don't have a list.

I really think you guys should try and do your research yourself as this is the best way to get the most reliable answers. Email the programs, ask for their requirements, think about where you want to live and then apply. Search the internet for reviews (scutwork is agood site) and for ratings of the programs. Look at their residents, that's a good way to tell if they are IMG friendly or not.
