Hi,
I would really be grateful if you could help me with this.
Program A=program I really like,but I dont know how high would it rank me,if at all.
Program B=program I really like but just a little less than program A,but this one would rank me,..how high? I dont know

So on my ROL, who should go first? A or B? and why?

Thanks for all your inputs.

You should rank in order of preference, and just let the match process to do its magic... may be you match your #1, may be your #2, who knows but your ranking should be in order of preference.

Your order of where you want to work for the next couple of years. Forget what the programs what - what do you want?

Dont I run the risk of being unmatched? IF program A doesnt rank me and I let it be number 1 on my list and I lose out on program B because I didnt rank it number 1?

Thanks...bbb, laptop,isther.

in the nrmp webpage explains the whole process, if you rank A as first and A doesn't have you in their list, the computer program will pass directly to your second choice and see if there is a match probability, if choice # 2 has you, then there is a probable match...

You should not worry about that, rank in preference order and wait, if a program from your list wants you then it will be alright.
