I guess Neurology moved to NRMP this year and relevant program info is present at Freida...so go thru it..

Neurology has moved to ERAS and NRMP.....it is no longer part of the SF match......some neurology programs do continue to accept paper applications as usual in addition to ERAS.....Fro neurology position in 2008 you need to secure a PGY 1 in Internal Medicine in 2007 and would have to go a Neurology slot this year too as programs fillout there Neurology PGY 2 slots 18 months in advance....hope this helps

If you go to ERAS, you can search neurology program which participate in ERAS. if program doesn't participate, you will see the name in gray, otherwise it appears in bright blue. There is 70-80 neurology program this year. Some of them provide Categorical Track, however as AAC said it's better to secure your priliminary year by applying separately to Internal Medicine programs.
