At the very least 250, AOA, multiple first author pubs on legitimate papers

AOA among the current residents is hit or miss

We are more about fit than step scores. Obviously, you can't fail step or have a 210. AOA not required but can help. I agree that you need multiple 1st author papers on legit journals.  Basic science research is highly preferred unless you have clinical papers in JAMA and Lancet. One of our interns has several of those. Apply to us, but if you don't do a subinternship, we may not be able to consider you given some bad experiences we have had with non subintern residents.

Hope this helps. I encourage you guys to apply. We are not a malignant program. We work hard and train among the best!

This is a very insightful answer! Thank you for taking the time. Unfortunately my basic science hasn’t produced results yet, but I will be sure to apply

Do you take applicants seriously who are not from top schools and non-MD PhDs? I have a 260+ junior AOA, a good mix of clinical and basic science from a year off and am doing aways at other top programs.

Do you still have a vacant spot that you are looking to backfill? What year is it?
