im rol - sun80 - ArchivalUser - 02-11-2014
Hi everyone ! I was stuck regarding a few programs on my rol for IM and was hoping if anyone here could help me out. The interview days were all comparable. I am not too focused on fellowships at this point.
These are in order of my preference.
1. Maricopa , Az
2. ETSU, Tn
3. Reno, Nv
4. UPMC, McKeesport
5. JSUMC, Nj
6. St. Joseph, Paterson, Nj
Thank you for your time !

UPMC Mckessport is not good and is not main UPMC. It is just a community hospital affiliated with UPMC. And PD , associate PD and PC are not native speakers. That means the program is not prestigious. I don't know about other programs

@sun80 : your list looks good. My friend is in jersey shore - decent program. gl
@johnson41022 really, even the PC of UPMC Mckessport is non native English speaker.. that's new. Not sure why that's a criteria for 'prestige' though.

@sun80:
Do u like to live in Arizona, is that the reason for ranking Maricopa high?
Jerseyshore is not a good program?

Thanks for your responses... Arizona is closer to my home. The program was pretty decent too.
