Resources to review before applying?

Is there program specific information about average step scores, that we will have access to at some point before applying?

Answer

Yes. We will be talking about this in detail during ARCH 7. Three available resources include Texas Star, Freida, and Residency Explorer. In April, all students will receive an invitation from Texas Star. We encourage you to sign up for this--it contains information from recently matched fourth year students which helps students currently applying into the Match determine which programs may be a good match for them based on how their own data matches up with that provided by recently matched applicants. Freida provides information from the residency programs about what they offer. This includes information that may be hard to find elsewhere including vacation policies and benefits. A third tool that is useful for specific residencies is called Residency Explorer which is put together by organizations including the NRMP and AAMC, and allows you to enter your information. This is an interactive tool that helps you to evaluate your own competitiveness within a specific specialty.
