4 216 Introduction Background The first edition of Charting Outcomes in the Match was published in August 26 to document how applicant qualifications affect success in the Main Residency Match. The report was published biennially between 27 and 211 and was a collaboration of the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP ) and the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC ). Match outcome data from the NRMP were combined with applicant characteristics from the AAMC s Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS ) and United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE ) scores from the AAMC data warehouse. However, starting with the 214 Main Residency Match, the NRMP added a Professional Profile section to its Match registration process to collect the USMLE scores and other applicant characteristics. NRMP has used those data to independently produce this report since the 214 version of Charting Outcomes in the Match. In prior years, this report examined the Match success of only two applicant groups: senior students from U.S. allopathic medical schools and independent applicants. Independent applicants included all applicant types other than U.S. seniors: previous graduates of U.S. allopathic medical schools, students/graduates of osteopathic medical schools, students/graduates of Fifth Pathway programs, students/graduates of Canadian medical schools, and U.S. citizen and non-u.s. citizen students/graduates of international medical schools. Because independent applicants are a heterogeneous group, a decision was made this year to report data separately for U.S. allopathic medical school seniors, students/graduates of osteopathic medical schools, U.S. citizen students/graduates of international medical schools, and non-u.s. citizen students/graduates of international medical schools. This report examines the characteristics of U.S. allopathic seniors. Data Match success, specialty preference, and ranking information were collected through the Main Residency Match. The 4 U.S. medical schools receiving the highest totals of National Institutes of Health (NIH) grants were obtained from the NIH website. Other applicant characteristics, including USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK scores, academic degrees, publications, Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society (AOA) membership, and research, work and volunteer experiences, were self-reported through the Professional Profile section of the NRMP s Applicant Registration Form for the Match. To complete the form, applicants were asked to answer the questions as they did in their ERAS Common Application Form (CAF). Completion of the form was optional, and applicants who completed the form could consent or decline to participate in NRMP research. Data collection for the self-reported Professional Profile section was granted exemption by the American Institutes for Research (AIR) Institutional Review Board (IRB). A total of 18,187 U.S. allopathic seniors submitted certified rank order lists in the 216 Main Residency Match. After excluding the 9.4 percent of U.S. allopathic seniors who did not give consent to participate in NRMP research, 16,484 applicants were included in the final dataset. Missing data were found in Step 1 scores (2.% missing), Step 2 CK scores (4.%), number of research experiences (14.6%), number of abstracts, presentations, and publications (14.9%), number of work experiences (17.5%), number of volunteer experiences (17.2%), Ph.D. degree (8.4%), other graduate degree (8.8%), and AOA membership (9.3%). To ensure that USMLE Step scores were not misreported, the NRMP asked medical schools to verify the scores of their U.S. senior students. In 216, 91 percent of the Step 1 scores and 92 percent of the Step 2 CK scores used in this report were verified, corrected, or supplied by U.S. medical schools. Because the self-reported scores are highly accurate (the intracorrelation coefficient (ICC) between the self-reported scores and school-verified scores was.981 for Step 1 scores and.978 for Step 2 CK scores), both verified and unverified scores were used to prepare this report. Methods Specialties that offered 5 or more positions in the 216 Main Residency Match are included in this report. Over the years, new specialties have been added to the report, including Otolaryngology and Neurology in 27, Neurological Surgery in 29, and Child Neurology and Vascular Surgery in 214. Transitional Year programs were excluded beginning with the 211 report because they are not viewed as a specialty choice. Twelve measures are incorporated in this report. Probability analysis using a simple logistic regression model was introduced in 29 to evaluate the relationship between Match success and contiguous ranks and USMLE Step 1 scores. Probability analyses in this report used data on U.S. seniors who participated in the Match in 214, 215, and 216. Copyright 216 NRMP.

5 216 Introduction (continued) It is important to note that for purposes of this report, Match success is defined as a match to the specialty of the applicant s first-ranked program, or "preferred specialty," because that is assumed to be the specialty of choice. Lack of success includes matching to another specialty as well as failure to match at all. No distinction was made based on whether applicants matched to the first, second, third, or last choice program. Summary Some general observations apply to all specialties in this report. U.S. allopathic seniors who are successful in matching to their preferred specialty are more likely to: Rank more programs within their preferred specialty Have higher USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 scores Be members of Alpha Omega Alpha Although other measures seem to be related to Match success for some specialties, the relationships are not consistent enough to draw broad conclusions across specialties. In addition, the data sources used for Charting Outcomes in the Match do not include other important applicant factors such as course evaluations, reference letters, and the Medical School Performance Evaluation (MSPE). Despite the fairly strong relationship between USMLE Step scores and Match success, the distributions of scores show that program directors consider other qualifications. A high score is not a guarantee of success, and a lower score is not a bar to success. Even in the most competitive specialties a few individuals with higher scores are not successful. In the less competitive specialties, U.S. seniors with scores slightly above passing usually match to their preferred specialties. The data also are reassuring because they indicate that at least some programs do not employ an arbitrary cutoff or decline to consider applicants with less than excellent test performance. The data in this report support the following straightforward advice one should give to an applicant: Rank all of the programs you really want, without regard to your estimate of your chances with those programs. Include a mix of both highly competitive and less competitive programs within your preferred specialty. Include all of the programs on your list where the program has expressed an interest in you and where you would accept a position. If you are applying to a competitive specialty and you want to have a residency position in the event you are unsuccessful in matching to a program in your preferred specialty, also rank your most preferred programs in an alternate specialty. Include all of your qualifications in your application, but know that you do not have to be AOA, have the highest USMLE scores, have publications, or have participated in research projects to match successfully. Program directors and applicants will find the tables and charts for the specialty of their particular interest later in this report.

Table 1 provides a summary of the numbers of positions for selected specialties and the numbers of all applicants and U.S. allopathic seniors who preferred each specialty. For example, a total of 1,771 applicants preferred Anesthesiology (or ranked an Anesthesiology position first), among whom 1,76 were U.S. allopathic seniors (1,48 matched and 28 not matched to Anesthesiology). For each of the 1,696 Anesthesiology positions there were 1.4 applicants who preferred the specialty, including.63 U.S. allopathic seniors. Only those specialties offering 5 or more positions are included. For those specialties offering both PGY-1 and PGY-2 positions (including Physician (R) positions), all position types have been combined. Copyright 216 NRMP.

To quantify this aspect of applicant behavior, we tallied the number of programs ranked in the first-choice specialty before a program in another specialty appeared on the applicant's rank order list (contiguous ranks). Chart 4 displays the median number of contiguous ranks by preferred specialty for U.S. allopathic seniors who matched and did not match to their preferred specialty. The chart shows considerable variation across the specialties for U.S. seniors. Neurological Surgery had the longest average contiguous rank list (16) for matched U.S. seniors and Dermatology had the shortest (8). For all specialties, U.S. seniors who matched to their preferred specialty had median contiguous rank lists that were longer than those of U.S. seniors who did not match. The principal message of these graphs is that applicants with longer rank order lists are more successful than those with shorter ones. The NRMP has been recommending longer lists for many years, but some applicants apparently do not heed the advice. Others may have shorter lists because they found only a few programs willing to entertain their applications or because they could not afford a large number of interview trips. Copyright 216 NRMP.

Although such knowledge is only one facet of applicant qualifications considered by program directors in their selection process, a Step 1 score is the only qualification that is universally available for all applicants during the interview season and prior to the NRMP s ranking deadline. Overall, U.S. allopathic seniors who matched to their preferred specialty have mean USMLE Step 1 scores of (s.d. = 17.4), well above the 216 minimum passing score of 192. Step 1 scores were available for 98 percent of U.S. seniors who gave consent to research. Chart 6 displays the Step 1 scores for U.S. allopathic seniors by specialty and Match status. The horizontal bars are the median values for successful applicants and the vertical lines show the interquartile ranges (IQR, the range of scores for applicants excluding the top and bottom quarters of the distribution). Scores generally are higher for the more competitive specialties, but there is substantial overlap when specialties are compared. Across all specialties, the IQR of U.S. seniors who matched to their preferred specialties was higher than those who did not match. Copyright 216 NRMP.

Overall, U.S. allopathic seniors who matched to their preferred specialty had mean USMLE Step 2 CK scores of (s.d. = 14.9), well above the 216 minimum passing score of 29. Step 2 CK scores were available for 96 percent of U.S. seniors who gave consent to research. Chart 7 shows the Step 2 CK scores for U.S. seniors by preferred specialty and Match status. The horizontal bars are the median values for successful applicants and the vertical lines show the interquartile ranges. As was the case for the Step 1 scores, the more competitive specialties have higher average Step 2 CK scores, but the overall variation is smaller.

This information is self-reported and may include peer-reviewed articles, abstracts, poster sessions, and invited national or regional presentations. Some residency programs may independently verify and even review publications for applicants in whom they have an interest, but most probably do not. Many applicants report abstracts, presentations, or publications, sometimes dozens or even hundreds. In the individual specialty sections, we distinguish between no publications, 1 to 5 publications, and more than 5 publications. Chart 9 shows the average number of publications by preferred specialty and Match outcome. U.S. seniors averaged 4.8 publications, with 7.9 percent reporting this information. U.S. seniors had a higher mean number of abstracts, presentations, and publications in all specialties but Internal Medicine, Internal Medicine/Pediatrics, Pathology, and Pediatrics.

AOA membership is limited to students in medical schools that sponsor an AOA chapter. Most, but not all, allopathic schools in the United States participate. An analysis of its relationship with success in the Match is limited by the relatively small number of applicants who are members, by the fact that some schools do not have AOA chapters, and by the fact that other schools elect AOA members too late in the academic year for it to be considered in the application process. Data on AOA membership are self-reported. Overall, 16.9 percent of U.S. seniors included in this report claimed AOA membership. Among applicants who matched to their preferred specialty, 17.5 percent reported AOA membership, compared to 12.6 percent of unmatched applicants. As with several of the other measures, the most competitive specialties are able to attract the greatest proportion of AOA members. All specialties attract some AOA applicants, but for most specialties AOA members account for fewer than one in four successful applicants Copyright 216 NRMP.

To test that assumption, we obtained data on the amount of NIH grant awards and identified the 4 schools with the highest NIH funding. This measure, by definition, is limited to students of U.S. medical schools. Overall, 32.6 percent of matched and 26.7 percent of unmatched U.S. seniors were graduates of one of the 4 medical schools with the highest NIH funding. Chart 13 shows the percentage of U.S. allopathic seniors who graduated from those schools by specialty and Match outcome. For example, 27 percent of U.S. seniors who matched in Anesthesiology were graduates of one of the 4 medical schools with the highest NIH funding, and 23 percent of seniors who did not match in Anesthesiology were graduates of those schools. Neurological Surgery had the highest percentage of matched U.S. seniors who were graduates of a medical school with the highest NIH funding. Radiation Oncology, Child Neurology, Dermatology, and Otolaryngology also had higher percentages of matched applicants from those schools compared to the other specialties. For all specialties except Internal Medicine/ Pediatrics, and Vascular Surgery, smaller percentages of seniors who did not match to their preferred specialty were graduates of a medical school with the highest NIH funding compared to seniors who matched.
