USDO who just matched in a mid-tier academic IM program with in-house PCCM fellowship. 235/245 and 3 research pubs (from before med school, 2 happen to be in the area of PCCM).
I understand I'm already "behind" as a DO so I wanted to know, other than research and LORS, what exactly does one do to put together an attractive fellowship app for say, a university program? Do ITEs matter? Evals in said specialty? Away rotations?
My immediate goal is to excel as an intern and resident first and foremost, but we are already being asked to pick what electives and outpatient subspecialties we want and it got me thinking. My program has an excellent fellowship match track record so I think I should be fine. Just wanted a little insight into what to expect and prioritize in residency for successful fellowship match!
