hows north shore long island surgery for IMGs? do they take people directly into categoricals? they have 26 prelims, so conversion rates into categorical must be 1/26 approx right?

my point of asking this is that they have >25 prelim positions so it would be one of the worst prelims to get into. they usually convert 1 prelim to categorical so chances are approx 1/18 (non designated prelims) so if they do not take IMGs directly into categorical, is it even worth going for the interview?
