I have started applying for Paeds as a backup specialty.. just in case i dont get IM; my specialty of first choice. I have applied to 1 few places in PA and NY. As my research did not revolve around Paeds, i dont have much info... Can anyone tell me which states / places are IMG friendly? GL to all this week

NY, NJ, MI, PA are IMG friendly for peds. It is interesting to note that people think peds is a lesser competitive specialty that IM. I have never thought about it that way.

Paeds is certainly not less competetive..... the idea is to increase the number of applications... with my average scores; i have applied to very single program in IM whose criteria I can meet and so far I have 1 interview call... Majority applies to IM and eventhough quite a few Paeds programs require USCE or any CE, I have noticed ppl getting into Paeds when they have not been lucky in good(not average) IM programs.. Thats how I feel... may be wrong though
