Hello everyone. I have a step 1 score of 230, preparing for ck right now. Will be graduating this year, and have 2 IM electives scheduled. I previously was interested in IM but now I find FM interesting too.. What exactly helps one match in FM? observerships, research?? Since i have IM electives schedule, will they help me match if i apply this year? Thank you all in advance Smile
Also Im on H4 EAD..

Do your step 2ck well in the same range and do more rotations in FM. FYI getting FM is more tough than IM. 2 reasons for that is AMG's and almost all Ross graduates focusing on FM,it doesnt mean they take away your spot but they make it tough.
