Hi!! I would like to contact people trying to enter a Pediatric residency or people that are already doing one (especially IMGs). Does anybody know how competitive is Pediatrics these days? Which are the average scores one should get in the Steps to have a good chance of matching? Which are the most IMG friendly programs? Hope I get a lot of replies!!! Rafo :P

Hi I am not aware of average scores, but Peds is not very competitive. lf

Peds is a bit more competitive than IM, just because there are fewer spots and it mostly fills in the match. But, I got interviews at top 5 pediatric programs in the US while for IM I was mostly interviewing at programs in the top 25 or down.
