I have applied for just one specialty...I am curious to know how do people rank programs when they are applying for multiple specialties? Do you rank each specialty or all together...how do they make sure u do not match in 2 specialties at the same time? Maybe a stupid question..but really I am clueless..would like to know.

even when u have multiple specialty, u r supposed to submit just one rank order list, ..
so eg. no.1 is IM pgm, no. 2 is FP pgm, no 3. Peds pgms etc..according to preference..
u can not match to 2 speailty- just the way u can not match at 2 different pgms..
Hope it helps.

but if you apply for neurology and prelim, then I heard you need to have 2 rank lists
