Applied to 8 categ neurology programs and 2 advanced neuro only. Quite passionate about neurology but can't take the risk of remaining unmatched for pgy1(as ya'll know prelim IM is tough) so applied vastly in Categ IM.

  #8

no drmaran, dont think like that. Its much more than credentials...in neuro people say research experience as well as the personal statement also play a big role.
Goodluck.
