For general surgery, there were 1,065 positions and 2,071 active applicants
(1,079 AMGs and 992 independent applicants) in 2009. 824 AMGs (success rate
= 76.4%) and 236 IAs (success rate = 23.8%) matched. This doesn't count for
people without any interview invitation.
Many programs prefer candidates with step 1 score > 210. Conventional wisdom
has it that letters for surgery training programs should be from surgeons,
or at most one letter can be substituted by MICU,
Gastroenterology, Anesthesia.

谢谢ericusa 的宝贵信息。
再请教一下：
Surgery (Categorical)和Surgery-Preliminary (PGY-1 Only)的区别？是不是Surgery-Preliminary好申请一些？
看Surgery-Preliminary (PGY-1 Only) 的位置2009没有fill满啊？
另外怎么选择Surgery (Categorical)和Surgery-Preliminary呢？总共有500 多个programme呢？
是不是对CMG就只申请Surgery-Preliminary？

奔兄明鉴，策略很微妙。我当时的问题就是把prelim和cate混为一谈，觉得拿得到cate
的prematch，prelim也应该可以。是二饼医生还有后来几位帮助我的院总和主治朋友让
我了解了prelim和cate的申请方法根本就是两回事。Cate因为有三年的培训时间，医院
选人的标准相对更注重潜力。所以IMG的机会就大些。但是prelim就那么一年时间，入
选人热身的余地很小，也没有将来拿fellowship给医院提高声誉的可能，医院就会愿意
要本土的学生。这个时候是在用我们的短处和本土生的长处比，劣势很明显的。我得到
prematch的情况应该算是很特殊了，很不具有普遍性。再次提醒大家，小心对付！

Do you want to be a surgeon? If so you have two options:
1) General Surgery route (5 years+) and possible a fellowship afterward:
Cardiothoracic
Thoracic
Vascular
Surgical Oncology
Hepatobiliary
Colorectal
Transplant
Minimally Invasive
Bariatric
Breast
Endocrine
Trauma/Critical Care
Surgical Critical Care (without trauma)
Pediatric Surgery
Head and Neck
Independent Plastic Surgery
Burn
Hand (only a few programs take non-Ortho or non-Plastics trained residents)
Rural General Surgery (only a few programs)
2) Surgery Specialties (5 years or longer):
Urology
Orthopaedics
Otolaryngology
Neurosurgery
Integrated Plastic Surgery
Those are very competitive.
For option 1, you should apply for General Surgery (Categorical) in NRMP
match.
For option 2, you may apply for a surgery specialty PGY-1 position in NRMP
match, for example, Urology which includes designated preliminary year and
advanced program. Or for early match, i.e., Plastic Surgery in San Francisco
match, you may apply for a Plastic PGY-2 in SF match and a surgery
preliminary year in NRMP match. Designated preliminary is for candidates who
are required to do a surgical internship.
Non-designated preliminary is designed for candidates who are not required
to do a surgical internship but rather have to do either surgery or medicine
internship (ie, candidates for Anesthesiology, Dermatology). If only
matched to a surgery preliminary year, candidates have to apply for an
advanced program or surgery categorical PGY-2 next year.
Dok, correct me if I'm wrong.

ericusa (eric) 于 (Mon Jun 22 12:02:43 2009, 美东) 提到:
CMGs can apply for any Surgery-Categorical, Surgery-Preliminary, or Surgery
Specialties positions.
The letter in the program code indicates the nature of the position, for
example,
General Surgery 1898440C0
Surg-Prelim/Undesignated 1898440P0
Surg-Prelim/Designated 1898440P1
C - Categorical
P – Preliminary
Which program(s) to apply will depend on the candidate's qualification.

感谢ericusa的信息。受益匪浅。
也感谢力刀前辈的批评。只是身边的信息太少，只能到这个版来请教啊。
一直有个梦想做外科，也知道match很难，工作更辛苦。听说一个柔弱的JJ今年match上
外科了，对自己是个激励啊。

有梦最美，希望相随。
建议去ob看看，再决定。如果没有surg经验的话
nothing is impossible. 没有人比你自己更了解你自己的条件。如果觉得有可能，就
试试呗，但愿不要留下什么遗憾。今年版上还有上骨科的。加油
