1. Do people in preliminary position get paid?
2. What people do in preliminary?
3. What's the chance of getting a match after (1 year) of preliminary, in respect to: within the same program or on diff program (prelim in surgery goes for IM match in the following year)?

Thanks

1. Yes
2. Depends on what prelim program you are in. You are an intern - you will work like any other first year resident in Peds, Surgery, IM, FP, etc.
3. Depends on what program you are looking to go into. We've taken several people over the years with a prelim year or transitional year into the IM program here.
