Given the volume of programs not allowing aways, what is the plan? Do we all just jump in? Match rate last year was under 70%. I don't wanna gamble.

Would a gap year be beneficial?

If nobody can do aways, then you are in the same boat as everyone else. The whole process is a gamble, you have to be honest with yourself about your qualifications.

Your program's and faculty's connections will matter much more. Otherwise, everything else will stay constant.

Shouldn't really change too much since everyone has the same disadvantage
